Reviews

And I Want To Be Gone

This Country stomper comes out with winning guitar played like a Byrd's intro in a pedal steel style thats winning. The 'plain folks' harmonies are also of the SoCal cloth, as is the Bakersfield shuffle of the drum & bass. A sleek fiddle solo is the icing on the cake and its all top notch for the pickers involved.

Now we are talking! these vocals make me want to change the world. The producer had to be God. This song makes you want to become a man and believe in myself. I don't know how this beat was made but its extraordinary.

 

Excellent song, its live and love the instrumental. The lyrics and done very well vocals are great and the violin is on point. Wouldn't change a thing on this song. A great song...

 

If anyone was given the chance to choose an intro for this song he will surly prefer this one. The first beats of music are perfect enough to persuade one to continue...so rich background containing different sounds and different musical instruments .. the singing voice sounds prevailing the whole melody with its powerful technics.

I just had to reach out and let you know how blown away I am by your song, "And I Want to Be Gone." Seriously, it's like you took all the best parts of country music and wrapped them up in this beautiful, heartfelt ballad. First off, let me dive into the music video. Man, you had me hooked from the get-go with those three green aliens rocking cowboy hats and dancing in the streets. And then, boom! We're in a field with people having a blast, laughing, and just enjoying life. The way you blended humor into the video was genius—dudes in dresses, cats on pianos, and even a dog behind the wheel! And let's not forget about you, sporting that cowboy hat and those shades like a boss. Now, let's talk about the music itself. The moment that acoustic guitar kicked in, I was already tapping my foot. Your voice, man, it's like pure honey—so smooth and captivating. And those lyrics hit hard. "I don't want you anymore, I don't feel like I did before..." I felt every word. But what really got me was around the 1:55 mark when everything quieted down, and it was just you and those guitars. It was like time stood still, and I was just lost in the music. And then, bam! At 2:05, your voice came back stronger than ever, backed up by those drums, and it was like magic. And let's not forget about that chorus. "And I want to be gone, gone, gone, baby." It's so catchy, man. I found myself humming it long after the song ended. Overall, your ability to weave music and humor together to create such a happy vibe is something special. I can't thank you enough for this amazing and entertaining experience. Oh, and one more thing—I'm adding this gem to Dulaxi's Upbeat and Energetic playlist because it's an upbeat country ballad that deserves to be heard by everyone. Keep doing what you're doing, because you've got a fan for life right here.
