My Pet - original by IanR

[IanR]

Hi again,  

This is a really rough recording of a song idea about an enigmatic person that I know. I hope that you like it.

Its recorded on my MBR (I'll work it out one day).  Guitar is a Fender Stratocaster - American Standard 2009. I think I used the Nashville patch for the rythm guitar and the main melody line.  I used the metal patch for the solo. Voice is mine and, if you listen carefully, you might hear my dog Daisy.

My Pet

by IanR

Well I can see it in your eyes
There's something you're trying to say to me
I don't know what it is
But I wish I could read your mind

You don't hear when I call you
You don't care what I say
I just seem to bore you
And you just slip along in your own way


Well he's creating his own style
and there's something he's trying to say to me
I can see it on his face
But I wish I could read his mind

It doesn't matter if I spoil you
You just want to play
You know I adore you
But you just skip along in your own way


I give an inch and you take a mile
and there's nothing he's going to say to me
You're caught but you love a chase
and I wish I could read  your mind

I try to beguile you
You just look away
"Be mine!"  I emplore you
But you just skip along in your own way

Well I can see it in your eyes
There's something your trying to say to me
I don't know what it is
But I wish I could read your mind

Well I can see it in your eyes
There's something your trying to say to me
I don't know what it is
But I wish I could read your mind

Hi Ian, a lovely, happy song dedicated I suspect to someone that gives unconditional love for a pat on the head and a long walk. If my guess is totally wrong I apologise profusely............Willie

Cool tune Ian! It has a great swing to it, and the lyrics are so right on.

I agree with Geir, it is catchy!

Enjoyable Listen Ian. The melody guitar really got me in the mood.

[Ferryman]

Can only agree with everyone else, a really upbeat song with a lovely guitar melody and some really effective chord changes. Perhaps the vox could be a bit louder in the mix? The end's a bit sudden as well, I was enjoying the swinging groove and hoping for a bit more guitar. Lovely job though, well done.

Hi Ian, a lovely, happy song dedicated I suspect to someone that gives unconditional love for a pat on the head and a long walk.

I suspect that's how my wife views me......

Cheers,

[Farrell Jackson]

Great melody Ian! This has a very happy and uplifting overall sound...I like that! Although the lyric is about your pet pup, you've written them so they could fit other subjects as well. Nice work!
