about

Wily Bo's song of drunken remorse, this version of 'Did I Forget (To Tell You I Love You)' was produced specifically to feature on this mini album.

A track Wily Bo also works with his live band (The Wily Bo Walker Band) this version features the wonderful and inspired guitar of Keith Mack.

Keith has worked on a lot of Wily Bo Walker's recordings and captures the feel of his songs perfectly.

Said of this song:

"The downbeat gospel shuffle in ‘Did I Forget (To Tell You I Love You)’ is pure New Jersey in feel, with Walker’s upfront pleading beautifully bedded by the multi-tracked Karena backing chorus." David Innes - Blues and More Again

"Did I Forget (To Tell You I Love You) is a swinging jazz blues number, with a pleasing beat and clean guitar." Ben Macnair - Blues Matters

“Did I Forget (To Tell You I Love You)” shows the true triumph of the duo’s contrasting vocals and again features some more fine guitar!" John Bottomley - Blues in the North West

lyrics

DID I FORGET TO TELL YOU I LOVE YOU
I GUESS MY DRINKIN’ GOT IN THE WAY
AND ALL THE STARS SHINING ABOVE YOU
COULDN’T KEEP ME FROM LOSING MY WAY
NOW I’M ALL BROKEN DOWN
ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN
I THOUGHT THAT WE WOULD HAVE ONE MORE DAY
DID I FORGET TO TELL YOU I LOVE YOU
I GUESS THE ANGELS WILL HEAR ME TODAY

DID I FORGET TO TELL YOU I NEEDED YOU
I NEEDED YOU MORE WITH EACH PASSING DAY
DID I FORGET TO SAY I BELIEVE IN YOU
BELIEVE IN YOU MORE THAN WORDS CAN SAY
WELL I’VE ALREADY GONE
AND WROTE IT DOWN IN A SONG
I HOPE THAT YOU WILL HEAR IT ONE DAY
DID I FORGET TO TELL YOU I LOVE YOU
WELL THOSE WERE THE WORDS THAT I WANTED TO SAY

NOW I’M ALL BROKEN DOWN
ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN
I THOUGHT THAT WE WOULD HAVE ONE MORE DAY
DID I FORGET TO TELL YOU I LOVE YOU…
WELL THOSE WERE THE WORDS THAT I WANTED TO SAY

GOODBYE BABY
IT’S BEEN A LONG, LONG, LONG LONELY DAY
SO LONG DARLING
MAYBE, MAYBE ONE DAY…
GOODBYE BABY
ALL THE ANGELS WILL HEAR ME TODAY…
SO LONG DARLING…
GOODBYE BABE…
