you may be blue
but you dark my day
throw shadows my way
break my mind
while you say that you've been treating me kind
who are you foolin'?
my time with you
beat a thorn-filled path
blood filled where we passed through
blood red with wrath
you all knew that we'd be fine
find by nothing at all
I know my way
and it won't be long
you're gonna wake one day
to find me gone
and there won't be nothing but goodbye
nothing nothing but goodbye
but you dark my day
throw shadows my way
break my mind
while you say that you've been treating me kind
who are you foolin'?
my time with you
beat a thorn-filled path
blood filled where we passed through
blood red with wrath
you all knew that we'd be fine
find by nothing at all
I know my way
and it won't be long
you're gonna wake one day
to find me gone
and there won't be nothing but goodbye
nothing nothing but goodbye

The riff reminds me a bit of Free Until They Cut Me Down by Iron & Wine

Great little tune!
Awesome jam... shades of CCR with that swamp rock sound. Hard to believe it only scores 7.3.

Great segue from "Dazes and Confused" by Led Zeppelin!

Similar drum-beat, completely different chord progression and melody. It's also a different chord progression and melody than "Happy Together" (which was previously mentioned). Come on people, learn to play a musical instrument or at least learn a little about music structure and theory before you decide to embark into a career of alleging copyright infringement.
I didn't say anything about copyright infringement. It just reminded me alot of "Cherokee Nation." Everything is derivative in art and music. C'mon man, learn to not jump to conclusions before you accuse people of false accusations.

I really love the chord progressions

I've heard this one at work a few times this month... man is it an earworm! That hook is insidious in the best way. 8 > 9

Should follow this with Fatboy Slim...the wolf is at the door.
The end of the song seems like it could segue right into 'Love Street' by The Doors...

Reminds me of that song by Sinkane that shows up on RP from time to time.

The bass and guitar work, especially at the end, remind me of the rock-solid multi-talented jamming on "Amerikon" on Blows Against The Empire...

Makes you wonder whether Potter was a girlie-show barker in an earlier life...
What amazes me is that so many people these days are quite eager to display their bodies and sex lives on the Web. Not sure if that's a healthy thing or not but we're a far ways from peeking at National Geographics and the odd Playboy magazine.

I've never heard those words used together in a sentance before. It seems rather queer to me.

I like this song. Smooth. It'd be a good driving song, or good for doing touch and goes in the plane.

Again, posting late at night will invite incongruous thoughts and phrases into your mind. The 70s blue movies I've seen were more relaxed, happier and...fun than a lotta stuff made now. This song has a relaxed but slinky, sultry, doncha-ya-wanna vibe to it that reminds me of those films, although not as much this evening.
The movie "Boogie Nights" caught this change in porn and culture quite well. It also showed the emotional toll those movies take on actors and audience if they get too caught up in them.

This tune doesn't especially remind me of that, but that combination sounds pretty cool. This has got very different chords and melody than those of "Happy Together".

I was expecting some Donovan with that guitar at the beginning... and following the BST and Zepp.

Strangely, at 1:50ish am, it now reminds me of a mix between soundtracks to a Western and good-natured porn.

Listening on a bus on my way home, finally. Long day, its 22:50 in Tel-Aviv. Great song to unwind. Thanks!

True, true, but early pornographic actors always kept their socks on, the men did, anyway.

Once again, this has me thinking...hmm, sounds kind of familiar...and yet, kinda different — usually the sign of a good piece of music! Dig it!

Nice change-up pitch... Not dramatic, just enough expansion of beat, bass and dancing strings to expand the awareness... What comes next-? Just another good reason to keep listening and recommending... Thanks
I feel like a big bobblehead right now...
I really like this.

First i ever heard this band/song whatever. It's pretty good. I'll open with a 7
Never heard this - but really cool - quite likable at least!

Why hello, spaghetti-westernish tremolo keyboards! 
Very cool... almost hypnotic.
Exquisite guitar and tempo...
Dig it, solidly.

Lovely Vibrophone! Does sound a bit like Iron and Wine, however. Or maybe that was Wine and Iron? Or wine while I am ironing .. anyway ... I'm in Romeotuna's room at the hotel and dancing to this with Prince Harry and his drunken nekkid buddies (we say "nekkid" in the South)
