beatle influenced pop dan fogelberg tribute tony delecce
Fans of Beatles, Badfinger, Fogelberg, Moody Blues, Raspberries and other Retro Classic rock.
I am a fan of the Beatles, Fogelberg, Raspberries, Badfinger, Moody Blues, solo Beatles, Eagles. Any music that has solid vocals, good harmonies and a hook! I also am developing a fascination with old jazz standards. I am self taught on everything I play which explains my limitations. LOL! Up until a few years ago I was all accoustic all the time and did very little recording on an old 4 trak. I had written a lot of songs over the years on my accoustic most of those are not here as I started using the computer to record and wanting a more electric sound so out came an electric guitar, then I wanted a beat so the cheap drum machine came next, then I needed a bottom so the cheap bass was bought, then my drums sucked so I needed loops. Then I wanted some strings/sax so my keyboard was bought. Well you know the drill the more you get the more you want and songs that took 3 hours now take 3 days. And so my one man 6th grade band was born. I have put samples of the music I have written here on this website. I use drum loops and all other instruments are live Course you probably can tell that, LOL). Anyway as Harry Chapin's Mr. Tanner would say music is my life not my livelihood. I have met some great artists on SC and continue to hear great artists on SC. Click on the stations link to find Soundclick Radio stations where my music is playing. My music playing on these stations has been a pleasant surprise as these stations are filled with great musicians. I have also had the opportunity to collaborate with some very good musicians here on SC. My brother Jim, Svenni Bjorgvins, Juri Rosenfeld, Johnny Proctor, His Masters Choice, DeAnn Sanders, Dawn Sinclair and most recently Dawn Diamond. I am very grateful to all these artists for helping me to have more fun than should be allowed for free. Writing/recording/producing music I find to be very rewarding. I am learning so much everyday about every facet. The exposure to so many great musicians has really helped me evolve as well. Well if you are still awake thanks for coming by. Other SoundClick Artists I recommend: Click on their links to hear some great music! Jim DeLecce my very talented brother Great Musician and great help to me in too many ways to count.

Lyrics
Why Doesn’t Love Stay Words and Music Tony DeLecce 01/2010 She says that we are different, she says that she has changed I’m glad she knows that its not me, cause I am still the same We started out together so many years ago She said she took the high Road, I guess I took the low Chorus Why doesn’t love stay longer than a day Why does love always slip away I wish I had a dollar, instead of all this change I wish I were a scholar instead of just someone to blame I could tell you what to do, but it would be in vein Cause the world is upside down and a little bit insane Chorus Why doesn’t love stay longer than a day Why does love always slip away BRIDGE: I’ve seen Love in movies, I’ve read those fairy tales There are no happy endings on this lonely road Middle Lead: She says that things are different, I know they’re not the same I wish I knew what I could do to wash away her pain Some things will last forever, some things will fade away And time waits for no one and nothing stands in its way Chorus Why doesn’t love stay longer than a day Why does love always slip away I wish that I could change the world but that’s not up to me The good and bad is inside out and truth is make believe We started out together so many years ago She said she took the high Road, I know I’m n the Low Chorus Why doesn’t love stay longer than a day Why does love always slip away BRIDGE Instrumental CHORDS: Verse G, Am, D, C, D, G Chorus: Bm, Em, A7, D, Bm, Em, C D Bridge: BMAJ7, Em, A7 D

I never know where the popping sounds come from, or how you get them, but there are pops throughout the song. It sounds pretty good, otherwise, Tony. I like the lyrics very much, and can relate to them. :) I hope you don't think this is a scathing review this time around, LOL!!

Tony, really heart felt lyrics , sorry it took me so long I forgot , some people need to understand that love is not just a " feeling " it is a choice a decision a commitment , oh well their loss huh ? this is sort of Hermans Hermits sounding to me not sure why but I like it . the begining riff almost sounded like you were going to play " brown eyed girl " , I like that too. if there is such a genre as " British folk pop " I think you found it here . I also like the openess of the arrangement . I have been very slowly working new songs myself , having a hard time motivating myself to finish them , as always I try something a little different with mixed results ha ha

Howdy Tony, Of all the parts that make up the writer in you, Tony...I believe this came from the chunk of country in you....and you did great!!!! I can even hear the fiddle calling & wanting to jump in on the melody.....mighty fine tune & lyrics!!!!! But don't believe her when she says she took the high road....never turns out to be true, it's usually both that just got lost on the roads from each other....LOL!!!! Great new addition!!!!!! Have a super week, Wade
