Bud beat me to it-- riding down the road and this song comes on the radio, I'd pull over right away. Fantastic at every level. Excellent write, arrangement, performance and production. As Floyd said, "in a just world....."

Hello, Greg
Great song! Very nice country waltz.
The melody and the chord progression are excellent.
I love the bass line and the way to use B7 chord.
Your vocals are truly pleasant as usual.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Hi Greg,
Like you, my busy life hasn't left me much spare time for the forum of late, but I'm
so pleased to have caught this one.
No one does this sort of stuff better than you. This is fabulous.
It's clever, it's professional, it's beautifully performed and above all, it's entertaining.
All this, and yet there's still more - it's something which many of us can relate to.
It doesn't get much better than this.
ROG. Thanks so much for your very kind words ROG! I always love hearing your songs... always fun and so well produced! Take care. Greg

Loved the song loved the delivery and more people should have the privilege of hearing you than just this small audience.
Yes, 100% agree with Peter. Excellent writing, I really enjoyed the lyrics. Of course I'm old school too! And you have such a wonderful voice, always enjoy hearing you sing. Thanks Dave for your kind words. I always love your blues!! Take care. Greg

Greg,
Don't know how you do it, but you seem to get better with every write - going stratospheric!
That first verse is stated beautifully... one of those "why didn't I think of that" type song ideas! (For me, it was Great Garbo - I used to watch old black and whites after coming home late from gigs).
The "music verse" (2nd verse) is nothing short of STUNNING. Original and touching - in a place that would easily contain hackneyed clichés in the hands of a lesser writer (a place you NEVER go). WOW.
The final verse - the "take me back" verse - is a perfect knock-out punch. Unique, perfectly worded to elicit the intended feeling from anyone who is actually listening... Another WOW.
Excellent arrangement and production. Excellent vocal - really well recording and processed - one of those that is SO good, you don't even think about it (until you think about it).
Songwriting at its best!
In a just world, you would be a star.

I am extremely humbled by your kind words my friend! Take care. Greg

Wow!
Got goosebumps from those vocals and lyrics man.
Been a while since that happened.
This in an incredible song in every way (progression, mix, instrumentation, build, poetry, mood, beauty of the lyrics, incredible singing, just for starters) and has become one of my favorites instantly.
Everything a song should be. I will be going back for 10 to 100 listens.
Totally awesome man. Thanks David! Your words mean a great deal to me. Always, always love your stuff!! Take care. Greg

I am pleasantly stunned at this in many ways. It's a mix of the old Eagles, when they were still writing folk country up in the canyon. Then, there's the Beatles influence in the last verse with the BGV following the main. Loved it.
Production is excellent. I really like the smokey quality to your voice on this.
Nice choice of tracks too.
And the lyric writing.... well, that's nothing short of brilliant.
This is my favorite song of everything I've heard this year.
Another job well done.

Greg,
man, what a song! A beautiful melody from one of my favorite singers
I've gotta say it makes me think of Glen Frey, which means that I
just love it and it sounds like a very professional recording, great job
on the mix
