After moving to N.Y.C., the newcomer failed to get seriously involved in the local music scene until hip-hop producer Bob Power hooked him up with Dave Boonshoff. Jay Denes began working on his own freestyle project soon after naming himself Blue Six. Released by Naked Music, his debut full-length record called Beautiful Tomorrow delivered a mix of electronic music, soulful pop, and smooth jazz, featuring contributions from multi-instrumentalist Marc Anthony Jones.

II. BLUESIX

Six fine blues men make up Bluesix. Their blend of precise and rockin' blues comes via guitar, bass, drums harmonica and sax. This set rides hard out of the gate with the title song "Ready" and a guitar that could cut steel. Some familiar material gets an airing, with original songs making appearances too. It all blends nicely as the Bluesix players are always working in a synced-up fashion with the others and producing well arranged tunes. Recording is good and the sound is tough, with the pedal to the metal most of the time. The Netherlands is a great place for the blues and Bluesix is right in there contending for one of the top spots. Good songs and super solid blues rock!

If You Turn Your Back On Love
Blue Six Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's not enough.
You're hiding underground.
Believe in us...we begin to live right now.

If you turn your back on love,
deny the things you feel.
There's not enough of anything to give you what you need.

Well, I've tried to make you see.
That the truth will make you free.

Yes, I know,
It's just cliche
"But someone learns it everyday!"

[Chorus]
If you turn your back on love,
and hide the things you need,
There's nothing that comes from anyone,
that can make your world complete

If you turn your back on love,
deny the things you feel.
There's not enough of anything to give you what you need.

It's hard to say goodbye,
mmmm, so many happy days,
I start to wonder why it has to be,
Nothing feels the same,

Baby, what's changed?

[Repeat Chorus]

Since you're gone,
and it really doesn't matter what you've come to think,

This time now,
Gonna make it better
