Title: Lost My Mojo
Post by: Ron D Bowes on January 20, 2024, 07:55:38 AM
We've all been there - you try some riffs, or chords and it all starts to sound the same! This one I changed the riffs 3 times and then left it along with other part recorded tracks. Was feeling I was being unproductive so dug this out and used my mojoless state to drive the song! LOL

Your rapid fire vocal delivery works well against the slower backing tracks. Again, you are doing some cool guitar work here. The "I have Lost My Mojo" phrase is an excellent hook line and sinker!

love this one Ron... if losing mojo makes you do these songs... then lose on brother!

love that bass pinned against that rhythm guitar... it is bloody hell right there...

the vocals sound great but I am so lost in the music I can't quite get there yet...  bt I did hear "Kiss my sweet ass"....

Powerful hook and your vocal delivery all around is so compelling.  I can imagine listening to this live in concert with a huge crowd of fans clapping to that beat.

Glad you finally found your mojo to finish this one Ron. That beat is infectious and the " lost my mojo" chorus is a real catchy hook. You know how to write a catchy chorus and a great song.

That mojo is never gone!

Greasy greatness and the production quality immediately gets higher when that Ron voice appears.

The lyrics are a bit cheeky (pun intended).

That's a lovely mean and dirty riff. Love the low end coming through, very ominous and powerful. It's a good idea to just get something out there when you feel like this. Somebody famous said on a YouTube video interview (might have been the XTC guy - but not sure) if you are struggling or in a rut with a song... "just finish it, might not be perfect, but don't spend forever just get it finished and move on" I think that is good advice.

But this is a cool piece in its own right Ron, nice work!

Love those driving riffs you come up with, Ron. Great blues rocker and a cool idea for a song along with stellar vox.
