"What I'm Losing" by Reina del Cid
Subscribe: bit.ly/subRdC
This was performed live at The Garage on Beck in Salt Lake City, the venue where we played our concert on tour. Scroll all the way down for lyrics! I wrote this song "What I'm Losing" about the dark side of touring, but we sure are having a blast at these shows. Toni and I are off to Europe as a duo next week to join our friends The Other Favorites for another month of dates.
Hope to see some UK / EUROPE friends out on the road over the next few weeks.

Lyrics:
As I catch another train
and I board another plane
I think hard on what I've gained
and what I'm losing
Oh I load this old guitar
into another noisy bar
and I just wonder
where you are and what you're doing
Seven weeks on the road
a blur of road signs and tolls
I left my coat in Amsterdam
and I left my keys in Rome
my credit card's in a Dublin bar
and I left my love at home
As another curtain falls
I have missed another call
so pour a drink and make it tall
bartender
See there's an aching
in my bones
because I left my love alone
for a reason I can barely remember
Seven months of the year
a tale of green rooms and beer
I left my pick in Reykjavík
and Hotel Paris has my comb
each place I see keeps a piece of me
but you have my love at home
As the days go by
burn the miles at night
pills in baggies that can't stop the rising tide
lose control of the
claustrophobia
and the center can't hold
I lost a van
in Birmingham
and I lost my mind in Cologne
I lost a pound
in every town
and I lost my love at home

[@ericplaksin2112]

"I left my pick in Reykjavik" is the best rhyme.

[@martensjd]

I miss Reykjavik. Great song!

[@flutemusing]

Reykjavik: kind of hard to pronounce...

[@thomasannegilligan6250]

Cute. Somehow I thought these were all real experiences so maybe the Euro Tour did not get to Iceland.

[@marclavigne6734]

😊 My credit card's in a Dublin bar

[@Spacebeagle]

Together as 1 🎤🎤💎💎🎤🎙

[@piotrek8493]

Podziwiam. Pozdrowienia z Polski.😀 Piotr.

[@rstthomas]

This could be a Country Western #1 song by the right artist.

[@stefanschleps8758]

She is our own Bob Dylan. Love you dear. Ya'll be safe out there. Support your local Union.

[@clubsky198]

That you haven't lost - whatever you think you haven't lost yet - you haven't yet lost everything - but I Am.

[@grahamshipley]

Absolutely stupendous lyrics

[@markanderson5077]

I'm an old guy, from MN too. I grew up with Paul Simon, Leo Kottkey, John Prine, Jerry Jeff, Guy Clark, Townes Van Zant, Willie of course, Johnny Cash, et.al., all great song writers and this song, Reina, rates as one of the best. Everything about it is spot on. You and Toni are in some rare air.

[@burlingtonbill4687]

I'm 72 and couldn't agree more Mark! This whole group of young singer songwriters are just great. A very bright future for all! Burlington Bill singer songwriter busking from the road and home!

[@Charlie-fx9dp]

Very good song... I like the cool start and, after the band... From France

[@raycarter4030]

this song sounds full of wonderful Flyer version of Nanci Griffith, as high a compliment I can pay. Brilliant.

[@Dr_Do-Little]

It's like Piano Men. Only you feel it. I probably said it before. Was amazed by your "presence" in Montréal. Was the real deal. The real Reina, Tony and friends. Maybe tired from the road but "here and there". Honest and true. Or maybe it was because I really needed that Tuesday night. Doesn't matter. Thank you.

[@1952PAL]

This is as good a road song as has ever been written.

[@spencerrobinson2794]

Toni’s fingers dancing on the fret board

[@kevinronk4337]

Wow, I am just totally blown away by this song.

[@musicshmoozic]

This makes me feel things. Thank you.

[@mikeblack864]

Reina del cid is very acttractive young lady and she is cutest girl from mikeblack

[@jeff8246]

We need new radio stations. We need to get rid of all the crap that is controlled on these stations and flush them down the toilet. And put these contemporary artists back on who know how to write music and who's talent needs to be honored. We need music like this to bring us back to life on the goddamn radio. If life would ever slow down again these would be the stars that shine..... Each place I see takes a piece of me but you have my love at home. This is what it would look like if music was restored to sanity....

[@eugeniuszmaciejewski5667]

Piękny głos ❤

[@UnkaDon]

You're a national treasure!

[@petterbossum4716]

The change from leaving stuff, to losing stuff, and ultimately applying it to her love.. Gets me every time.

[@guitaleleoeuvre]

"The center can't hold"... I hope you gals will forever dedicate to the DIY/Indie (aka "punk") ethic! It's been so far, so good since I discovered "Tuesday Mornings" such a while-ago! 'Chelle, Toni. (and friends!) Y'all PLEASE continue being the PROOF that signing a "deal" with a major-label is a BAD idea!

[@scottwilson5840]

If there’s a better word than Beautiful , that’s what this was to me.

[@CDRaff]

Damn this song is so good with a full band.

[@jimromanski2702]

Happy Sunday Morning!

[@Transterra55]

Extraordinary performance...

[@chriscarson1256]

That was beautiful harmony. Toni & Elle, there will never be better.

[@jimwalden-h9o]

[@Charlie-fx9dp]

It' begins to be my new favorite song... Fine music, sweet rythm... From France.

[@teivman6779]

I lost my mind in Saigon, but I found it again - in Japan. And now I'm a better man - even though I lost my love at home.

[@andrewrobertson1347]

This is your best song Reina. Excellent.

[@tagirb]

This is a beautifully written song- it could have been written by any world class songwriter you can name. Beautifully executed too. Wonderful.

[@miner.camp.stoves]

You guys are definitely no joke.

[@Labeastx17]

Rachel should consider getting an air tag for all the stuff she’s losing. Really helps retrieve them

[@Purple_Pixel]

Great original song.

[@autogestionmusical]

Beatiful!!!

[@objetty11]

My curiosity got the better of me and to those that want to know: Garage is a biannual contemporary art and fashion magazine, this issue was from Sept 2013 and the model is Adriana Lima....Aloha

[@jayhawkjd8565]

Just one of those rare artists that her "best" or one's favorite depends on the day of the week or how you're feeling. Add this one to that fluid list. Nothing else to say.

[@jococontreras5107]

Excelente, felicitaciones por compartirnos tanto talento. Excellent, thanks for sharing so much talent with us. Greetings from Chile.

[@blindleader42]

I had to fire up the time machine to go back a few months an listen to the Duet with Josh after this. I'm glad I don't have to choose. I'm a greedy sob, so... keeping both of them. 👍

[@MrWolfheart111]

Thank you, Im trying to start a band with my Sister and family... :) Bless.

[@dreamwell2020]

Writing is where the action is in the making of music - I don't care what Roger Daltry says.

[@iseektruth7435]

So beautiful…

[@Bus429]

Lovely. Absolutely fantastic.

[@marianolovardo7701]

Just superv. Great performance of you all.

[@1thomson]

Fargo should be very proud of you, Reina. And, Toni's fans are legion, of course. The guys aren't bad, either. Ha.

[@whitlong4486]

It’s the layers of this song I love!

[@luckydog-287]

True beauty!

[@josephfernandez1738]

We have a lot to gain from this Song!

[@daviddemar8749]

Great song guys.

Lovely, and beautiful, and back again

[@arnelarsen4379]

RdC: "One of my favorite things in the world is touring-around and playing to live audiences, friendly faces in real life - that's so much better to playing to pixels on a screen - although I enjoy that too. Yeah the energy, I love everything about it. The only thing I don't like is losing all my shit in all the cities I go to" (11/30/2022 Caffe Lena)

[@chuckjj5493]

Well Done.

[@rabierabie9741]

I love your filing

[@billcaulway9910]

Love Iceland...you all are wonderful ❤️

[@ChristopherMmmm]

Tasty chords

[@Charlie-fx9dp]

Rather Stanger, your very good song looks like German one... When a version in deutch for Munchen beer festival ?

[@rolfberger4626]

So nice! Thank you from Germany.

[@BryceRogers_]

The reykjavik line was clean🧼

[@onelen]

Superb, ya'll.. Thanks

[@mojoxphotography]

I appreciate all the work and exhaustion that goes into the life of a performer, especially when they travel. I have spoken with musicians who have told me, "I just want to sleep on someone's couch and eat a home-cooked meal." For the fan, it's a couple hours for a show. And people hesitate at spending $20 for a CD, but we'll drop $40 for over-priced beer in a heartbeat. Thank you for all that you do to bring us your music.

[@lizzy-folksongsscottis4518]

Love this song -Love the players- sung beautifully- I hate it to end Need more verses :)

[@larrytate5605]

i will just say it,....HOLY SHIT,.....its perfection by all.

[@zenleeparadise]

that was so moving

[@rainertews1641]

Wow! And what you've lost in addition was you bassist in the first part of the video 🙂 Great song! Thank you!

[@MatthewCastro]

This really is a great original
