^BELLE'S^ HELL


 Caught Up In: THE STORM (My review of Travis Tritt's newest release)
 

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Country music has soul, and his name is Travis Tritt. Long identified with the "outlaw" gang in country music (Hank Jr,Waylon and Willie), Tritt has ALWAYS done his music, HIS way, and this newest release, from Catagory 5 Records, is no exception. Produced by American Idol judge, Randy Jackson and Tritt himself, it is, in a word;FANFLIPPINTASTIC!

I don't know that I can be unbiased when it comes to Tritt, since I began a love affair with him, his music and his sound, beginning with his first release, County Club. I have everything the man ever released, know all the songs and have seen him in concert, 5 times.

TRAVIS TRITT: The Storm

He may have a new look, but the sound,heart and soul, is the same Travis that Tritt fans all over know and love.

Nobody does, what I call, "Dixie Funk", like Tritt. On "Mudcat Moan",written by Tritt and Michael Thompson, you get a John Lee Hooker kind of vibe. The song that follows, "You Never Take Me Dancing" written by Richard Marx, mixes southern rock and country.

There are 2 lovely ballads by Diane Warren, "I Wanna Feel Too Much" and "I Don't Know How I Got By".

"Something Stronger Than Me", is a song anyone who has ever loved and lost can identify with.

A 1981 song written by Hank Williams JR,"The Pressure Is On", about a man trying to love 2 women, is delivered by Tritt from the bottom of his soul with grit.

"Somehow,Somewhere,Someway", brings to mind the vocals and riffs of Stevie Ray Vaughn.

I can't tell you the number of times I have listened to this all the way through since it dropped last Tuesday.

My opinion is BUY IT!

 SONG IN MY HEAD SUNDAY: Elvis.....Elvis.....Elvis....
 

Some of my favorite Elvis songs.

Fairytale

I'll pack up all my things and walk away,
I don't want to hear another word you have to say
I've been waiting for so long
I just found out there's something wrong
And there's nothing will get better if I stay

There's no need to explain anymore
I tried my best to love you, now I'm walking out the door
You used me, you deceived me,
And you never seemed to need me
But I'll bet you won't forget me when I go

Seems I've been lost in a dream
Pretending that you care
But now I've opened up my eyes
And found it's all been just a great big fairytale

I've been lovin' you so long
Don't think I'd even know how to forget you
But now the way that things have been
I think I'm better off alone
Than to be with you

There's no need to explain anymore
I tried my best to love you, now I'm walking out the door
You used me, you deceived me,
And you never seemed to need me
But I'll bet you won't forget me when I go

Seems like I've been lost in a dream
Pretending you were mine
Someday you'll open up your eyes
And realize that a good man's hard to find

TRYIN' TO GET TO YOU
Artist(Band):Elvis Presley Review The Song (3) Print the Lyrics


(words & music by C. Singleton - R.M. McCoy)
I've been traveling over mountains
Even through the valleys, too
I've been traveling night and day
I've been running all the way
Baby, trying to get to you.

Ever since I read your letter
Where you said you loved me true
I've been traveling night and day
I've been running all the way
baby, trying to get to you

When I read your loving letter
Then my heart began to sing
There were many miles between us,
But they didn't mean a thing.

I just had to reach you, baby,
In spite of all that I've been through.
I kept traveling night and day,
I kept running all the way,
Baby, trying to get to you.

Well if I had to do it over
That's exactly what I'd do,
I would travel night and day,
And I'd still run all the way,
Baby, trying to get to you.

Well, there's nothing that could hold me
Or that could keep me away from you
When your loving letter told me
That you really loved me true

Lord above me knows I love you
It was He who brought me through,
When my way was dark as night,
He would shine His brightest light,
When I was trying to get to you.

JUST PRETEND
(words & music by flett - fletcher)
Just pretend, Im holding you
And whispering things soft and low
And think of me, how its gonna be,
Just pretend I didnt go
When I walked away, I heard you say
If you need me, you know what to do
I knew it then, Id be back again
Just pretend Im right there with you

And Ill come flying to you, oh yes
All the crying is true
Oh, I will hold you and love you again
But until then, well just pretend

Oh, its funny but I cant recall the things
We said or why youre crying
But now I know it was wrong to go
I belong here by your side

EDGE OF REALITY

(words & music by giant - baum - kaye)
I walk along a thin line darling
Dark shadows follow me
Heres where lifes dream lies disillusioned
The edge of reality

Oh I can hear strange voices echo
Laughing with mockery
The border line of doom Im facing
The edge of reality

On the edge of reality she sits there tormenting me
The girl with the nameless face
On the edge of reality where she overpowers me
With fears that I cant explain
She drove me to the point of madness
The brink of misery
If shes not real then Im condemned to
The edge of reality

On the edge of reality she sits there tormenting me
The girl with the nameless face
On the edge of reality where she overpowers me
With fears that I cant explain
She drove me to the point of madness
The brink of misery
If shes not real then Im condemned to
The edge of reality

Reality, reality, reality, reality,
Reality, reality, reality, reality

 DO NOT DISTURB: Hanky Panky With The Yankee In Progress
 

As I write this, I am waiting. Waiting for my sexy Yankee. He will be here soon and my heart is already pounding.



A whole entire weekend to spend with my guy....It doesn't get much better than that!



Another blogger agreed with me when I commented last night that I have a one track mind. And that track is all about The Yankee!



Once in a lifetime, if we are lucky, we find our soul mate. Some people search their entire lives and never find them. So very glad that I found mine.



As a little girl, I dreamed about finding my soul mate, the love of my life, the one that would make all the pieces of the puzzle that was me fit together.

Right from the start, I KNEW he was THE ONE. Something inside him spoke to something inside me.

I KNEW he would take me places, mentally,emotionally, physically and sexually, that I would never find on my own. And, he has!

From the shadows, he stepped out of my dreams and into my life.

Have a great weekend.....and.....if this blog is a rockin'....don't come a knockin'............
