Midnight Blue

I don't want to be blue without you
I don't want to be lonesome no more
I'm dreaming of you and I'm midnight blue

I'm still sleeping on one side of the bed
And I'm still cooking for two
I'm thinking of you and I'm midnight blue

My pillow's sprayed with your aftershave
And I've got your music on repeat
I'm missing you and I'm midnight blue

I don't want to be blue without you
I don't want to be lonesome no more
I'm still loving you and I'm midnight blue.
I'm midnight blue.

Wow! Brilliant!!!

I tried play "an old style" acoustic blues and you reached the spirit of it very nicely! Just great vocals!

Listened to this via cell phone with its "speakers", looking forwrd to hear it on phones.

Thank you so much, Hilary???

No worries Hilary you have more than done this justice, it's a corker. Really got that old smoky blues club feeling to it. And wonderful feeling on the guitar as well. Beautiful.

Beautiful, delicate blues.  Crystal clear recording.

I wish I could sing.

That was really nice. Quite impressive. 2 talents, one easy on the ears tune.
you 2 need to collaborate again for us!

[Hilary]

I'm on D3 of lockdown and really do have a low boredom threshold so anyone wanting any collabs I would welcome the distraction 

[kenny mac]

Lovely song.
An excellent collab you two.
Nice vocals and cool guitar playing.
Well done.

Wonderful stuff. Superb lyrics for a blues and your performance is sensitive and poignant. Really complements the wonderful backer. Well done Hilary, glad you are getting bored because there will be more gems like this to come I hope.

A little gem down there! Bluesy but not that sad - super-sweet instead, and charming, and an original way to blues. Very good !!!

[Hook]

Totally bad ass my friends, what a great collaboration & fest entry. You really nailed it Hilary & Redler that's some serious bluesy picking you got going on, love it brother (& sister!)
Rock on!
