backer of Mike's that we just had to collab on after becoming aware from another member here of it - great track by Mike and we loved being a part of this version.

some people get by with a little understanding, some people get by with a whole lot more..
think back to when the Rubettes smashed onto the scene with 'Sugar Baby Love' and pop music would never be the same again, kind of like an open invitation for ABBA to have it's wicked way...plus how the world seemed less complicated and more focussed on serious issues as opposed to Tik Tok or Instagram and if we don't think we've lost something we're crazy...but if we think it's coming back anytime soon then we are complete fools. Michael Keaton in a scene from 'Birdman' is here due to his brilliant acting abilities as well as the late great John Belushi...dig Mike & John, supreme talents for sure! can you still recall in the juke box hall when the music played and the world spun round to a brand new sound in those far off days.. in their blue suede shoes they would scream and shout as they sang the blues, let it all hang out.. rock and roll...

Story behind the song
became aware of Mike's backer track being available after seeing another member making comment about it and a version of their own - given it was a free (lol) download and an invitation to 'do what we like' we took the offer up and out of respect to Mike kept the original title (lol) - it's got strings, rawness and an edge which warns of relationships being tested, being taken for granted etc etc. Great to have had the opportunity, thanks Mike from the both of us!
Lyrics
And so I told her a little about myself Make her feel good Settle down, take control Cause I didn’t understand you You didn’t seem that way you were before you don’t know me Before you judge take a look around At these things that you don’t know Cause you don’t know me And before you go to ground Maybe check it out And search within yourself maybe get to know me And so I told her a little about myself Make her feel good Settle down, take control Cause I didn’t understand you (without me) You didn’t seem all that sad before ...then you don’t know me (you didn’t know me) You didn’t know me You didn’t know me You didn’t know, you didn’t know me So go on do what you like without me So go on do what you like without me You didn’t know me, without me

Mike’s tracks are such a treat musically and you have done a very nice job bringing a good story and melody to this. Very nice cover. I almost did this to one of mikes Travis it was so beautiful. Words started coming. Good collab

Really like what you have done with Mike's backer Greg. Taken it easily to another level although. A beautiful gorgeous song it now this. Brilliant stuff!
