Too Big To Fail

Liner Notes

Number three of my Simon Phillips Loop Pack endeavours...this was entitled "80's rocker"...so I thought I'd better bust out a chorus pedal...

Lyrics

Too Big To Fail

It’s too big to fail
Too important to let us de-rail
And there’s too much at stake
And you’re way too afraid that the dam’s gonna break

There’s been too many times
Too many leaving the scene of their crimes
And as so many have said
There’s way too much air in your ten gallon head

They’re too hard to find
Too many people are losing their mind
Because you strung them along
And they’re way too deluded to know they were wrong

There’s been too many times
Too many leaving the scene of their crimes
And as so many have said
There’s way too much air in your ten gallon head

They’re bought and sold
Little wonder the trail went cold
But now you’re thrashing around
Busting your buttons to shut it all down

SOLO

It’s too big to fail
You’re too busy to notice it’s right off the scale
And it’s gone too far
We’re coming for you…and we know where you are

There’s been too many times
Too many leaving the scene of their crimes
And as so many have said
There’s way too much air in your ten gallon head
We’ll always remember you left us for dead
You better believe us and put it to bed

I love this, such a great feel. To copycat @davidtaro I definitely get Elvis Costello This Year's Girl era vibes. And he's one of my all time favs. So big kudos.

Nice! Elvis Costello vibes, love the chorus pedal, it’s 80s-tastic. Solo = great!

Nice shimmery guitar. Great vocal, nice harmony line too! The line "There’s way too much air in your ten gallon head" makes me laugh. That solo is sweet. Nice job! I like how it ends with the put it to bed line.

There's a great overall sound to this. Great tone on the guitars in particular. I like the drop after the solo, really nice dynamic going on. Nice job.

So much awesome here. 'too much air in your 10 gallon head' is such a great image.

This came out dope. You’re an 11 gallon man in a 10 gallon hat.

You’re guitar/bass runs are so epic
