Thanks for posting. This is a really nice song and performance and the lyrics are well written. Good emotion in your vocals and backing vocals were a nice added touch. I thought the overall mix was good. Look forward to hearing more from you soon.

Kenny,
Welcome to the Showcase! Nice entrance!
I really liked this. Some strong writing! Interesting title.
"With all the dirt beneath your painted fingernails You’ve long since given up on any fairy tales"
... that's especially nice...
Nice mix, good choice of instruments - presented the lyric well. You have a cool vocal sound!
Look forward to hearing more from you!

I really enjoyed how you put this together. All the background parts creating a soup of sounds and the drum and your vocals propelling the story through it. your vocal phrasing reminded me of Tommy Petty which is meant as a compliment as I like how he can sound urgent and laid back all at the same time. Great job.

Hi Kenny,
Welcome to the forum. A very nice first contribution. Indeed, your voice reminds us of Tom Petty, like Patrick said. Good vocals.

Hi Kenny.
THIS IS QUITE SIMPLY THE BEST THING I'VE HEARD FOR SUCH A LONG TIME.
The lyrics are brilliant. "When you put all your faith in an angry man". Just brilliant.
The backing is exactly right for the mood of the song and the vocal delivery is full of emotion. The mix is good and the whole package is extremely professional.
Welcome to the Showcase and please post some more like this.
ROG.

Welcome to the forums Kenny.
This is a great song. Your voice is spot on and your lyrics are great.
" And you keep betting on a long shot to come in Then wonder why it is you never can win" and " With all the dirt beneath your painted fingernails You’ve long since given up on any fairy tales" are great lyrics.
I can see someone like John Prine singing this.
Ps - your backing tracks fit the song perfectly also.
