    LYRICS:
    I can hear the couple fighting right next door
    Their angry words sound clear through these thin walls
    Around midnight I hear him shout unfaithful woman
    And I knew right there the axe was gonna fall
    It's because of me
    It's because of me
    I heard him shout who is he, she mumbled low
    He said baby don't you lie to me no more
    And I'm listening through these thin walls silently
    As he called out my name I was right next door
    It's because of me
    It's because of me
    She was right next door and I'm such a strong persuader
    That she was just another notch on my guitar
    She's gonna lose the man that really loves her
    In the silence I can hear their breaking hearts
    At daybreak I hear him back and say goodbye
    I can hear him slam the door and walk away
    Right next door I hear that woman start to cry
    I should go to her but what would I say
    It's because of me
    It's because of me
    She was right next door and I'm such a strong persuader
    That she was just another notch on my guitar
    She's gonna lose the man that really loves her
    In the silence I can hear their breaking hearts

    Under Credited, underappreciated, under paid. What an absolute legend. As Clapton insinuated - a soulful genius which appreciated music over fame

      Absolutely spot on! This man is a living legend, and one of the greatest blues guitarists of all time! its straight from the heart with this guy! as well as the whole band but Robert ( Night Train! ) Cray! and Richard are just at the top of their game! Blew the roof off the place in NJ August 26th!

    One of the things I really appreciate about Robert Cray, is the completely unadorned nature of his performances. He just shows up on stage in a pair of slacks and a plain long-sleeved shirt, picks up his guitar, and begins to play and sing. No flashing lights, no costumes, no jumping around like a cricket on a hot skillet. Just great musicianship, great singing, and superb songwriting. So refreshing.

    I grew in the Stevie Ray Vaugn error in Austin, Texas and was fortunate enough to get to see some of the best blues any young bass player could hope to see over a lifetime if they were lucky. Always thought Robert Cray was a class act. The blues is the blues, but when you can put your own stamp and signature on your own blues, thats when it's special. Freddy King, Buddy Guy, Stevie, Rober Cray, Albert Collins, were the soundtrack to my story.

      Mark Knopfler is another unappreciated talent. People have heard of Dire Straits, of course. Incredibly most do not know the name of the guy up front. When new MK records are released, only those "in the know" realize what is there. He's been putting out new recordings about every two years,, starting with Golden Heart in'96, he's been making new music on a regular basis. Of artists that are close to him in age, he is the only one who consistently puts out great new music.

    • @JVBLOUIN

      I don't think he wants the fame and the stardom. Not that he doesn't deserves it. He's a frontman, lest we forget. At this point he knows hes appreciated by the ones that listens to him. He's reconized in the industry, having won Grammys, tells us this, but He never went after the ''Big Fame'' as a choice, I think.
      Never had that ''Attitude'' that alot of artists have ( all discipline included ) of the rock star. He never cared and I always respected him so much for that. And its also why he strikes such a deep chord into me. I Love his guitar playing and its always SO on point, its crazy. But I always loved him so much more for his vocal, they soots my soul to the core.

    First time I ever saw Robert Cray Band was about 15 years ago when he opened for Buddy Guy. Couldn't have cared less about the headliner, Robert Cray Band stole the show. They were so smooth and so tight, I remember just closing my eyes and taking it all in. It was like I was listening to a CD but with so much heartfelt emotion and dynamics. Robert Cray is a master and without a doubt the best live act I have ever seen.

If anyone ever has the chance to see Bobby Live, jump on it!!! His shows are a fucking treat!! I once was at one of his performances, couldn't get tickets to get in... I found a piece of cardboard had a sharpie in my whip,and wrote NEED 3 TICKETS on it. After holding the cardboard in front of every person possible, I said fuck this,and went over to a guy who was guarding a side door, gave him 60 bucks to let the three of us in. No problem dude, he then guided us right up in front of the stage, damn shit couldn't be any better yo!! Show started, it was awesome, big time, I held up my cardboard along with a sharpie,and just held it there,after his show a person was shining a flashlight, and pointing at my face then he called me over,and said Mr. Cray wants to give me his autograph,wow I was in disbelief so I gave him my cardboard that says NEED 3 TICKETS then took it backstage, and Yong Bobby signed it he gave it back to me. It's been 20 years, and I still have it framed hanging in my music room. Young Bobby, I love you my Irish cousin. Keep on with the keeping on cuz!!

    I have seen Robert, little Bob Cray 3 times in KC, every show I wished would not stop. In 1990 I bought an old 1970 MGBGT with a cassette player in it and put the tape Strong Persuader in the tape deck, it stayed there for 3 years until I sold the car, so if you rode with me in the MGBGT, you were going to hear Robert Cray, or get out of the car and walk to your destination, no hard feelings of course. The sound of the car and Robert Cray was fantastic to the ear.

    I saw this great singer/guitarist/songwriter about a month ago, year:2019. I had previously seen him in the '80s right after he released his best LP: Strong Persuader. After all these years, he is as good or better than ever. The blues can sometimes be a bit boring to me--but that is not the case with Robert Cray. His great voice has not changed a bit. That unique guitar playing has not done anything but get better. I find it hard to believe that so few people have ever even heard of this remarkable talent. What a shame that is, They do not know what they are missing!

    I am so glad I had a chance to see Robert Cray early in his career,I was there to see and hear the great B.B.King,Robert Cray Band opened,I'd never heard of them.Seen them a half a dozen times since then.This is my favorite incarnation of his band.Saw him headline at Montery Bay Blues Fest.Sorry to say,many of the blues venues and festivals have gone away due to poor attendance And lack of sponsorship.Blues music is used in so many movie soundtracks and commercials,but live doesn't seem to get the audiences...To me,It's a Damn shame

      I recall the same feeling one year at Montreux. Cray replaced someone - James Brown? - who couldn't make it and blew us all away. Outstanding.

    "She was just another notch on my guitar" Robert Cray is unique..so talented. His lyrics are the best. "In the silence I can hear her breaking heart". I first heard him in '92 when I took my daughter to Christian Brothers U. in Memphis and fell in love.
