Title: Winters on the Way
Post by: The Gobi Desert Canoe Club on February 09, 2023, 09:35:47 AM
Hi all, been a bit quiet of late due to a nasty head cold so did a simple country song and I do apologise for the croaky vocal.    Willie

She left me standing there
And I hadn't got a word to say
Weatherman said it's gonna be fair
But I knew winter's on the way.

Summer sun was burning my back
But I shivered as she walked away
Not a cloud in that crystal blue sky
But I knew winter's on the way

She looked at me
And I felt the chill
But I wish that she would stay
Feels like I'm running up hill
And winters on the way

Instrumental

I guess I knew it all along
That it weren't no good for me to pray
I just stood there and I knew it won't be long
And winters on the way

She looked at me
And I felt the chill
But I wish that she would stay
Feels like I'm running up hill
And winters on the way
And winters on its way
And winters on its way
And winters on its way

Nice to hear you back. The voice still sounds great, croaky or not. All your music has great playing and production. I love the sounds you get with the guitars, the panning etc. lovely guitar playing.
Nice lyrics also.

Great song Gobi! Stellar guitar tones and I think your vocals are excellent here. I was missing your "British Americana" sound on the site!

Ha haven't heard that term in a while, probably only in America watching Gomer Pyle and such. Great song Willie, and the "croaky vocal" should be a preset on your Boss BR, sounds great!

Melodic, classy and tasteful. Love your country-style lead lines and licks. A really pretty song that's expertly performed.

Another cool song with those jangly guitars and a great story line plus you sing it well Willie! The croaky vocal just gives it more character.
