Oh man, what a song! This is a great write and performance.
Love it!
Kenny Bob, I agree with Kenny. Exactly what I though - What a song! A terrific listen. I was reading along with the lyrics and kept having to look back to see what RT you were using. The mandolin was a great start. The solo electric worked really well. The accordion was a great add. The guitar ending was excellent (I think you added a delay to it?). Excellent vocal. Simply - enjoyable... fj I'll piggyback on here....What a song!! Very nice in every way. I love the way that solo guitar fit-sounded custom. Great stuff!! Take care. Greg

What's not to love about this song?!?!?!? (nothing...)  These lyrics triggered an old road trip memory - I love it when a song triggers a memory: I'm driving on a highway rumble strip I'm driving on a highway rumble strip An empty sky ahead as I’m wrapping up this trip And I'm driving on a highway rumble strip This is today's Hot Forum Topic - thanks for posting it!  Callie

Nice arrangement - understated, but very effective.
I love the lyrics - you've got a poetic sensibility, and instead of cliches choose words that fit. It's a pleasure listening.

Robert,
An excellent write. Captivating lyrics and tune.
The vocal fade at the end was most effective - and I would agree that the accordion was well placed and very appropriate for this song.
Well done!

Enjoyed this Bob!
Unusual enough to be interesting.
Liked this bit - I'm dialing up the sun
And I'm tuning out the channels one by one.
Many other wonderful phrases and concepts. Cheers.
