The melody lift on the hook "She Says" is great, makes it memorable and pretty and catchy. I wish I had a better way of expressing myself about it. Love the rhythmic feel, another very cool song,
Kenny

Great stuff David!! I really like this. The chorus melody is really catchy. I really like "the band" you chose. Lyrics are interesting and insightful if somewhat abstract. You're doing some great stuff! Take care. Greg

David,
Another good one. The verses are very stream-of-consciousness and the chorus nice structured-catchy - cool combination. The verses reminded me of Loudon Wainwright III - not sure why... (I was a big LWIII fan).
Very cool combo of instruments. Nice mix. The vocal is at a good level - I thought it would sound nice to add a pretty good delay to it and a touch more reverb (for this style).
Nice!

Enjoyed this one a lot.
Unlike me, you write songs that tend to work well with your vocal style. I rarely sound adequate.
Like me, I think this is the second song you've posted that has the same title to a song i've used.....

Hi David,
That was ‘talented’ my friend I think lots of folks underestimated your ‘gift. I love that way of doing a song, the beat at twice the vocal time frame of lyrical phrasing, and as always with you, thought provoking. Work at this song, perhaps condense the time, you have a winner.

I really like the way you sing your lyrics and how it flows in your song. I had to play it a few times, just because I like your song. Inspirational. Looking forward to hearing more from you.

David,
Another awesome song! I could absolutely hear this one in Midnight Cowboy - I don't know why, but it just feels like it would fit right in - absolutely loved it!

Hi Everyone,
Thanks to each and everyone of you for your wonderful comments. My wife Gayle and I are celebrating our anniversary today so if I stay at the computer more than 10 minutes I will be in the dog house.
I will get back to each and everyone tomorrow and also catch up on my listening.

You had me right from the start on this one!
You have that knack of putting poetry to music and I like it. Your vocal was super and were your backing track but the lyrics took it over the top for me.
Great song.
