Alyn, You are certainly an original! Your chord choices always surprise me and they are fantastic. You seem to go places that I never would think of. The melody here is very strong as well as the lyrics. Nice production -the full band coming in was inspired. This is simply outstanding. Tom

Alyn,

This just oozes with pain and gut-wrenching in-your-face honesty.

I love the simplicity of it. Great job man.

I just love the straight forwardness of this and then the production at the end is perfect. A very cool song.

Alyn,

Another unique and strong submission from you. I always look forward to hearing what you will do next. I really enjoyed this. Like orchestration at the end.

Excellent track. Beautiful chord progression and melody you created.
I would see this song as a soundtrack in a movie.

Wow, do those lines ever establish the theme.
The juxtaposition of your vocals and the RTs is brilliant!

Welcome back with a great song!

J&B



Thanks both

I look at the words now and go wow, did I write them as they just flowed out of my head. The hard part was getting the backing to fit the sorrow

glad you enjoyed

Alyn

Tom,
As David Snyder I studied the book of transcribed Beatles' scores so I thank that book for the changes! And the hours in the library at college studying music theory....sorry Dental Surgery grin

So glad you enjoyed it

Cheers Kenny,

nothing should distract from the message.
Finding, and trying, the tango drums ended the song perfectly

Thanks for listening
