Title: You Bring Me Down
Post by: toadman on October 01, 2011, 12:54:10 AM

This is a fairly raw rock 'n' roll song that was started at Two Track Music and finished(?) here at MCS.
I'm grateful to the people listed below who helped me along the way.

Smurf (TTM & MCS) - Drums
Agradeleous(TTM) - Guitar solo (RH side)
Captain Fantastic - Lyrics & vocals

You Bring Me Down - (c)2011 Captain Fantastic - lyrics, toadman - music

You bring me up, you bring me down, Mama told me not to play with girls that mess you around
I get so high, I get so low, when you start the show I just can't go
But I can't stop playin' 'coz I think I'm in love with you

You wear 'em high but also low, yeah my sister told me "Brother, don't you hang with no ho"
I get so high, I get so low, when you start the show I just can't go
But I can't stop playin' 'coz I think I'm in love with you

Nice Rock tune!  Attitude for sure.

I like everything in this,.. I do wish the lead vocal would have been mixed a bit more into the song,.. Somewhat too out front.

Regardless,.. I likey!

I went back and listened. You were right, HDA.
I've replaced the original mix with a 'just slightly toned down vocal' one.
Thanks for the tip and the kind words.

The song is strong and I felt that it was worth mentioning.  Sounds good over here.
