Herb, thanks for listening and commenting. I understand what you are saying regarding stadium sound. I was experimenting a little taking off reverbs purposely. I have been noticing lately a lack of reverb in some of the things I have been listening to. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Thanks again, Tom

Hi Tommy, Welcome back  You have been missed. As Janice and Bud said, "Wow, what a re-entry!!" This song is spectacular. The lyrics are exceptional and so easy to relate to. I have to admit, though, that when I read the phrase "academic arrogance", I turned red because that's something I might be guilty of every now and then! I've seen the error of my ways!!! I totally understand how life can get in the way of forums. For a few weeks, earlier this year, it was completely beyond me to be involved in the forum, too. I get it. Anyway ... This song was an incredible listen. You've shown the world just how fantastic BIAB is in the hands of someone who knows how to tweak and turn those dials to get the best out of music. Mega-awesome! All the best, Noel

Hi Tommy,
Good to see you back on the forum.
A really good rock song! Like the lyrics too!
I like rock very much and this one made feel like singing along.
As far as I'm concerned you might even "shout it out" a bit more here and there, e.g. at the end of the last 2 sentences of a verse.
Thanks for posting.
Anne-Marie
R & AM, Thanks for the nice comments. I think you are completely right about shouting out the last couple of lines. I wish I had thought of that. Tom

All the best, Noel Noel, I never think of you as being academically arrogant. Your insights into songwriting are one of the highlights of this forum. Don't stop analyzing these songs. We all benefit from your knowledge and your willingness to share. Thanks for the compliments. Tom

Hey Tommy,
This tune comes at you. Compelling lyrics - where you gonna find a song with phrases like "academic arrogance?" - and you took that Sidewinder out of its case and let the fangs dig in. Professional and impressive as hell.

Hey Tommy, although I have said this before, rock is not necessarily my favorite genre but I can certainly appreciate music well done and played no matter what the genre. Great production and vocals as always.
