Hi Folks,

https://soundcloud.com/my-idiom/bring-me-down-m-blair-2018

I'm not expecting much of a response to this one, and that's fine with me, as I haven't been around for a while to do my fair share of reviewing recently.

Couple of reasons for that, started a new job which has kept me busy (and tired), and the songwriting bug stopped biting for a while, think I just reached saturation point and needed a bit of a break.

This song has therefore sat partially done on my computer since around Christmas and I finally got up the motivation to finish it this week, albeit a bit rushed. Not entirely happy with it the more I listen to it but....

Anyway, it's a bit of a two fingers up to someone who did done me wrong last year.

If you do take the time to listen, I thank you very much and I'll try to get a bit of reviewing done too, to redeem myself.

Any comments more than welcome, even if it's that the lead guitar is a bit off in the intro and needs ditching :-[

Thanks

Yodasdad

Bring Me Down - © M Blair 2017

Per-se Persecuted
You persecuted me
You Saw a weakness
And tried to use it
You tried to bring me down to me down to bring me down

oh, you tried to bring me down
You couldn't bring me down
You’ll never bring me down

Went on a witch hunt, you’re an abuser
Thought you’d find a victim in me
To build your status and feed your ego
But you failed to recognise the scars under my clothes I hide 

oh, you tried to bring me down
You couldn't bring me down
You’ll never bring me down


You hide behind your fake ass smile
but you spit your poison can’t resist giving the knife a little twist 
Karma is a bigger bitch
Your on her list 

No No No oh, you couldn't to bring me down
You couldn't bring me down
You couldn't bring me down

No No No, you couldn't to bring me down
You couldn't bring me down
You couldn't bring me down

Great to hear from you again...you’re songs are always really well worth checking out...and what a great voice you have. Life always gets in the way for all of us...no need to give it a second thought. It’s always nice to get back into the swing of things.

There was a good solid attitude driving things along nicely. Your voice sounding really good and towards the end it was pretty amazing  :)

Some pretty cool bass in there too.

Good luck with the new job!

Welcome back dude!
Nice to hear a slightly rockier track from you.
Your vocal range displayed in this is just astonishing. When it started I was enjoying listening to you in a lower register than normal, but by the end you were skipping round the stratosphere. Truly impressive.
It's all too beautiful.

Great driving song, with lots of detail, and it's just up my street. Some fantastic bass in there and falsetto bordering in Minnie Mouse.  Never stop what you're doing.

Hey Yoda,it's well you are? Hope I.  :)

'Tis a lovely rock/pop offering and greatly enjoyed. You have some range man,I did fear for the existence of your testicles at times,such were the notes at the top end of the range.

Cool to see you back dude,even if you left yer Henry Halls behind.  ;)

Hello buddy,

Great to have you back mate. Congrats on just getting something finished. There’s nothing wrong with having a little time to recharge every now and then.

I’m gonna be honest and say it’s not my fave track of yours. A few too many “bring me downs” for my liking, I just feel that you could have developed the chorus a little more. I know you won’t take offence at that as I’m a big fan of your other stuff. :D

Now your voice, your VOICE is the star of this track mate. Your range is exceptional. The end is just bonkers. :D (Only iffy bit I noticed was towards the end of the word “bitch”)

Welcome back man!  ;)
