Song information
It's been a while since I posted here - mainly due to a nasty bout of health issues. Starting to feel a lot better.
This one is just me. I used IK Multimedia’s “Modo Drum” for drum samples - I’ve just started using ModoDrum, and am really happy with the depth of the kit.
"Flying High” was written as a slow (but grooving) tune for my garage band (PBGB) to work on. We might still get around to it in band format.
I like it for the chorus :)
A case of "too much delay is never enough"! :)

Lyrics
FLYING HIGH (Bad Time Blues)
©Neil Porter 2023

I’ve been walking
In your shoes
Heard you talking 
Bad Time Blues
Weren’t you ashamed?
Just a little bit sad?
Bad Time Blues the worst I ever had

CHORUS:
We could be flying high
Might even touch the sun
We could be flying high
Might even touch the sun

Shadow boxing
Like shadows do
You’re shadow watching 
You got the Bad Time Blues
No-one knows
What happens then
Bad Time Blues have got to end

CHORUS:
We could be flying high
Might even touch the sun
We could be flying high
Might even touch the sun

SOLO

Don’t go stalling
Nothing’s new
Catch me falling 
Bad Time Blues
Don’t come crawling
They’ll never end
Got those Bad Time Blues again

CHORUS:
We could be flying high
Might even touch the sun
We could be flying high
Might even touch the sun

Welcome back Neil! So glad to hear you're on the rebound...
Very nice tune. Ha ha... DELAY! Well... I personally think it is used effectively herein.
Vocal is well delivered.
Love the chorus.
"Might even touch the sun." Just make sure your wings aren't made of wax and feathers!
And kids, don't try this at home!
FAVED!

Hey Neil! Yes, a grooving tune indeed. Drums and guitars really stand out, moving your fine vocals along throughout the song. Flying high and touching the sun...

The mix is thick.  Bass and drum groove is gold.  Might be a pop tune underall that verb.  The vocal is effective.  Bravo.

This pulled me in right from the start. Sometimes a slow groove hits just the right spot. This did in spades.
