Marty and Dave

It's another excellent piece of music! This has a message that should be heeded by all! Daves searing guitar tones really set the mood for this bluesy song! Marty, you do a great job harmonizing with your lead vocal! The whole song has been done very well!

Thanks, T

Very very important message that should have the highest priority on every politician's agenda now that we may have already crossed the line of no return. The Dave & Marty band has already a trademark sound which is always pleasure to listen to. Nice vocal performance with emphasis and pleading. Great way to end with "Please", although it should be followed by "!!!" wink

Thanks, David. There is still hope. wink

Thank YOU, Dave. Man, if I can teach you something about overlapping video it would hardly be payback for all the amazing guitar work you do on these songs.

Haha! Thank you, Robert. You're right, we all could add verses to this request.

Thanks, Tom, and I like the baseball reference.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Haha, thanks, Scott. You're right about Dave and his extraordinary ability to interpret songs with music. More bees with sugar, or something like that.

Thanks, Bass Thumper Steve.

Thanks, James. I like that about pulling the emergency cord.


Enjoy whatever happens!

“Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good write.”

Thanks, we needed that. smile

From Dave’s opening guitar plea to your ending vocal plea this song got our attention.
We agree with your message and it’s also one that fits well with the Christmas theme of peace, hope and love.

Excellent performances from you and Dave and the BiaB band.

And the fine video well supported the delivery of the important message.

Merry Christmas!

This is a great protest song

Loved the vocal, lyrics, guitar leads, and mix.

A great video to prove your point.

I am restricting myself from ranting and raving about the prolific use of plastic to this one line.


Why is it that the people who tell me to calm down are the ones who tick me off in the first place!

Marty...another great blues song from you and Dave but this time...hopefully...it's a blues that we all share and are concerned enough about to do something...those are heartbreaking images on the video...the song is "as usual" a brilliant production and musical collaboration...I always appreciate how your lyrics lay comfortably in the music's groove and don't compete with it at any point and are never forced...I believe the phrase is "in the pocket"...once again a stellar effort my friend!

Thanks, Torrey. I was once in a band that featured 4 lead singers. I was just the bassist. They would spend an awful lot of time trying to find a magic harmony note. They just didn't see it as math. Sometimes it would take them a half hour to come up with the line I suggested earlier. Egos made them wait until they could claim the win.

Thanks, Janne. I'd put over-population a bit ahead of as a solution, but no politician would ever want to tackle that problem.

Thanks for ALL of your comments, Scott. I really really appreciate them.

Thanks so much, Vic.

Hi Marty,

I didn't know you had launched this song when we talked about the one I was busy with before getting ill.
It's a great message, Marty! I think we need more of these warnings
But beside that; focussed on the melody, the vocals and the lead guitar, it is all arranged very well.
I liked it all, but you know that; you're good!

Hans
