Lets not Pretend

[thetworegs]

A first venture into open G tuning ....... Poor old Reg has been let down by a lot friends in his time and now he's down to just a few fingers on one hand .........So he thought he'd write a song about it ... Gibson acoustic tuned to open G recorded straight into mic at the soundhole ,  G Harmonica, piano , Vintage wah wah clav and Tranquility Texture on Logic X using M-audio Keystation 88 prokeys....with a little steel of Jimmy Page ....Thanks for listening

LETS NOT PRETEND


Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends
Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends

Lets just face it, you wanted something I had and you took it

Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends
Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends

Ok you pretended, I believed, which one of us is the fool

Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends
Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends

I should have really gone on my gut feeling
I should always listen to my gut
The first time I met you I knew you were no good

Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends
Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends

So was money that important to you,
I would have given you it but no you had to take

Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends
Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends

Of all the women in the world why?
Why did you choose her?

Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends
Lets not pretend, Lets not Pretend That we're friends

Lets face it
You used me
You got what you wanted and now your gone

A different feel on this to your usual songs and I like it. The different tuning adds a new dimension and the vocal is an excellent feature. Good job.      Willie

I like the style... you've tried something a little different and it worked very well. Some lovely washes of sound and that slightly Zeppish type riff is really nice. This is slightly dreamy, even slightly trippy... very cool vibe.

man, I almost missed this...it was way at the bottom and I hadn't seen it...er heard it somehow...I really like this one...the piano and guitar and that little thing in the back...plus the talking in the right speaker...for a moment I thought Greeny was singing on this... you have an uncanny ability sound like all sorts of people...and  perhaps going forward sounding like things, animals etc...

Certainly different to other songs I have heard of yours, Trev. I like this; that acoustic guitar sounds great, I've always loved the sound of Gibson acoustics and the G tuning is a personal favourite of mine. Nice cool laid back track, well done.
