Lately I've Let Things Slide - Nick Lowe Cover

[Ronniejm]

Another Nick Lowe Song, I just love his Lyrics.......

With a growing sense of dread
And a hammer in my head
Fully clothed upon the bed
I wake up to the world that lately I've been living in
There's a cut upon my brow
Must have banged myself somehow
But I can't remember now
And the front door's open wide
Lately I've let things slide

I go to the bin, I throw the laundry in
And pick out the cleanest shirt
Then I tell myself again I don't really hurt

Smoking I once quit
Now I got one lit I just fell back into it
Along with my pride
Lately I've let things slide

I go to the bin, I throw the laundry in
Dig out the cleanest shirt
When all at once I'm seized again by exquisite hurt

That untouched takeaway
I brought home the other day
Has quite a lot to say
The evidence is clear, on every side, piled high and wide
About how lately I've, let things slide

[Groundy]

What a fantastic song Ronnie,
I haven't heard the original, but don't need to know.
First class...

A great cover of a great song, Nick Lowe lived in the same town as I do for a while and I was lucky enough to see him and his band Brinsley Schwarz play locally many times even sharing the same bill on one occasion.   Willie

Very beautiful voice and lead guitar additions works nicely here! Enjoyable listening!

[Hook]

Another fine cover. Is live to hear you try to develop your drum parts using some other rhythms and fills. Its a little time consuming but often really changes the song section to section.
Rock on!

[Jean Pierre]

I really like your voice and your phrasing dear Ronnie
