Thanks for the early comments.

I'll pull the mandolin down again at some point. At the moment, I guess I have some 'edgier' oats to sow for now.

I don't have much experience with writing lyrics, but now I'm certainly paying much closer attention to what others write - both pros and non-pros. My wife and I had the pleasure of seeing James Taylor recently and were blessed with 3rd row seats. In the past, I would have listened more to the instruments and the performance aspects of the concert and this time I found myself more focused on the lyrics; not just the words themselves, but the cadence/timing of the words, enunciation, emphasis, etc. It is a whole new dimension for me to explore and something I want to develop in my own music..
