Title: Colorado On My Mind
Post by: dinnerwithgreedo on August 29, 2020, 12:25:00 PM

I wrote this after going to Colorado and falling in love with it. Beautiful part of the world. I want the song to also hint about being about a woman... which it is.
I wanted to write a foot tapper too. In my head i was trying to channel Johnny Cash.
Enjoy!!

I love this line! "...you stole my heart and I don't want it back." Nice, catchy melody. Very enjoyable.

Really neat guitar picking, then in comes that off-beat but very lovely vocal. The song captures a very unique atmosphere and the end refrain to each section is instantly memorable.

Cool song, must be up there with one of your best. :)
