You are doing some cool guitar leads in the solo breaks, Ron...I like the sound when you are matching the lead riffs with your voices. Excellent song! If it wasn't for bad luck.........

Original Songs / Why Don't it Rain on You?

Last post by Ron D Bowes - May 05, 2024, 05:22:05 AM

This is one of the tracks that came from jamming around on the guitar. Wasn't convinced it would make a song, but I recorded the rhythm guitar anyway. Once I sat down to come up with some lyrics, it all seemed to fall into place.

"WHY DON'T IT RAIN ON YOU?"

It seems that when I plan ahead
Lady luck won't help, she'd rather see me dead
I know that you don't give a damn
You'd like to kick me every moment that you can

Why does it always rain
When I'm feeling blue?
Why does it always rain on me?
Why don't it rain on you?

No matter when or how I try
Every chance I get, it seems to wave goodbye
And you could lend a helping hand
But you would rather die than help a fellow man

Why does it always rain
When I'm feeling blue?
Why does it always rain on me?
Why don't it rain on you?

They say each dog will have its day
I hope it comes real soon, that's all I have to say
To all those folks who passed me by
I'm gonna step on you while reaching for the sky

Why does it always rain
When I'm feeling blue?
Why does it always rain on me?
Why don't it rain on you?

Yeah, liking this. I think this is possibly my favourite oldrottenhead track so far. Everything sits right. Good lyrics and performance. Kudos.

I enjoyed this. Cool track. Like the vocal harmonies. The bass is super and the wah is great. The mix is just fine.

Nice laid back instrumental with nice flourishes on the axe and nice tone with echo. I think we can all imagine this as the soundtrack to a western.

You have to take those windows of opportunity. Sometimes they just fill a gap and sometimes they turn out to be gems like this one. Nice work.

Always enjoy your work Johnbee. Great piano intro and I like the string effects coming in. The whole track is expertly put together.

I agree with Physics Teacher. Shades of Hawkwind. All I need is the LED light in the darkness and a spliiff. Cool vibe. Definitely psychedelia and strangely strange subject matter.

Impressive track. Love the passion. I like the slight distortion on the vox - is that a tube amp being used or a plug in?
