I was running outta time
Inspiration hard to find across the Rio Grande
Take me to your city lights
Out by the riverside
I know you understand

Play me something downtempo
Low-key and rock steady
Body hittin' like Kimbo
Fallin' for you like confetti
More whiskey and ginger
Love, I'm just a beginner
What if I stayed in Laredo
Just one more night, just one more night

I know a girl with a diamond crown
Grew up in a border town
Took me to an empty dive
Such a pretty silhouette
Show me how to two-step
She brings me back to life

Play me something downtempo
Low-key and rock steady
Body hittin' like Kimbo
Fallin' for you like confetti
More whiskey and ginger
Love, I'm just a beginner
What if I stayed in Laredo
Just one more night, just one more night

Oh-oh
Ooh
Na, na, na, na
Oh yeah

Play me something downtempo
Low-key and rock steady
Body hittin' like Kimbo
Fallin' for you like confetti
More whiskey and ginger
Love, I'm just a beginner
What if I stayed in Laredo
Just one more night, just one more night

Play me something downtempo
Low-key and rock steady

I stumbled upon this blog today and you connect theory with real-world context in a helpful way. This post deserves more attention; it clearly shows how it is clear you put real effort into making this accessible. It is not every day you find content that you break down complicated ideas without talking down to the reader. That balance between depth and readability is hard to pull off, and you did it well. I could tell the author actually uses or understands the topic in practice. This is the kind of blog post I am happy to recommend to others. 신용카드현금화 https://creditcardcashing.imweb.me/

Exactly! This could easily 've been recorded late sixties. Groovy!

And my wife's too..... I hear LB all weekend throughout the house on our Sonos system. I like him but enough already!  [However, many worse options for her to obsess over.] 

Keep your focus with her. My wife tolerates my Van Morrison obsession and it makes for a harmonious relationship

it's not bad, but I'd be OK with a little less Leon Bridges in the future.  He seems to have caught William's attention.

He totally gots it. 
Love the accents from the Definitely Not a Digital Piano throughout this piece!
It feels like late 70s for sure.  I love this return to relatively dry mixes.  
I hope we get to hear this a lot!! Hints of 70's Robert Palmer, 80's Seal. Really nice!!

70-80
Early Robert Palmer feel to me. Like it!
Instant 8.

...70's seems clear to me. On first listen I can think of several other artists in the same vein I would reach for before him.

This guy got it. 
Easy 8 for me
