Top notch writing disguised as simplicity. Again, the internal rhymes you build so wonderfully into your write are astounding!

if it was raining whiskey tonight
this heart you broke might set right
no umbrella, no hat, just tip my head back
and pray there's no clearing in sight

pain beyond belief
so if the clouds could send some relief
i'd thank the gods, i might beat the odds
maybe i could drown this grief

...and on and on. FANTASTIC! All done in a way that the casual listener would hear it and "just like" it. It's soooo well crafted.

pouring hard as it can get


I have to ask if you meant this to be able to be taken two different ways?
Actually referring to it raining a lot
But also the strength/proof of the whiskey
WHO DOES THAT?! I'm AMAZED!

Quote:
the sky an endless moonshime still

Slight typo, however...hearing it, I thought you were going to say "the sky an endless moon" THEN you added "shine!" THEN "still!"
Again, top notch.


The Chorus opens up and is powerful without being overwhelming. It's in nice contrast to the rest of the song. To me it feels like a failed relationship...having those moments of strength in dispair; yet questioning and having uncertainty. A little bit of hunched over, then a little bit of standing just a little taller.

The arrangement and band is a perfect fit. I LOVE that guitar! The little embellishments in the chorus are really nice as well. A lot going on without being busy!

Those drums! Specifically the toms. WOW! The hats had some nice little flourishes as well.

All in all a very believable band.

Just your typical Country song...


Right...you ain't fooling this guy! It may sound that way; but nothing about it is.

I could see/hear this being on the radio.

Well done!
