Blue Gil

Taken from "Suitcase 1" 2003

"(Did you try and catch him?),
Blue Gil,
I've something for youJust for you,
Take stock,
Don't wait for it to come to you,
It won't walk up to you
You and nobody else,
You and nobody else,
Just for you
C'mon Gil,
We're all dying to see you,
We all wanna see you,
Wait Girl,
We want you out of town by sundown,
Get outta downtown
You and nobody else,
You and nobody else,
Just for you"

A sad slow song with Bob almost muttering the versus until the Chorus wakes up and slips into an almost merseybeat type sound. Sometimes the guitar seems to wobble and almost go dischordant but the song holds together and is quite a mellow relaxing hark back to 60s pop. A song about asking someone to move back in? These suitcases are good, full of baby classics.
