Whoa....man, does that ever capture Dylan's mid 60's period...was that Al Kooper on the organ?  As Robert so well stated, "Leon does that wry observation thing as well as anyone I can think of" And, you nailed that Dylanesque vocal feel. Something we should hear more of! Nice guitar, write, vocals, harp...nice everything. Well done y'all!!! J&B J&B Thanks for the continued support much appreciated. Peter

The beginning is sudden - maybe a fade in of the 1st 2 seconds?
The spoken/singing is as Knofler as Dylan and more Ian Hunter than both - if the organ was mixed higher it'd sound more like Mott the Hoople.
Cool song.
Cheers

Really nice work As others mentioned, this definitely has a Dylan vibe to it. Love the backing tracks, love your vocals, and love the lyrics too. Nicely catchy and really powerful with its delivery as well. Not a thing I'd change on this one - thanks for sharing Thanks Deryk. Peter

And the crowd stands, sways, and sings along with that chorus! Just great.
Dylanesque in a non-ironic way. I like this a lot.

Peter:
This is a terrific write and outstanding production—some killer lines in those lyrics. Really hits on all facets of the song—like the back up harmonies starting on that second chorus. I like the Dylan feel to this, but would love to hear in contrast what a less Dylan-esque take might sound like. Great, great tune. Enjoyed it a ton.
All the best,
Deej

"My friends are saying I can’t see
What’s right under my nose
But I have no desire to view
What they’re eager to expose
There are dreams we cling to
Thought we know they can’t be true
There are lies we tell ourselves
In order to get through"
Wonderful writing! Great retro vibe - To the composition and especially the vocal!
well done all around! Much appreciated Lawrence. Peter Great work again Peter! Yes I hear Dylan in this along with a lot of other influences! I just really liked the flow of this song! Thanks, Torrey Thanks for the comments Torrey Peter

Nice write, well sung, classic sound. Catchy chorus. In spots the vocal seemed a bit buried in the mix. Or my hearing is going.  Didn't want to miss any lyrics, because it's a well written. Like others, I enjoyed the listen.

Peter & Leon,
As many others said, this is very Dylan.
The chord progression is also very Dylan-like.
I agree with Dave.
You should handle the lead vocal more often, Peter! I dig Leon's vocals of course but you have something special happening too.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
