"And all I have is rock and roll
But that has always saved my soul
And my heart is still on fire
I refuse to make it cold
I will not be bought and sold
I refute all death and sin
I refuse to let hate win
I refuse to let hate win"

Wow!

Love it!

Rock n roll at its finest form and the lyrics I loved ..

Kiss my lips and close your eyes
I refute the devil’s lies
Bang the drums and hold me tight
I can almost see the light

Passion was mentioned on your vocals in a previous comment, I totally agree on that, they were delivered in a style/ manner to suit this song.

really enjoyed this David.

Thanks

Hey, David:

Gosh, I could swear I listened to this and commented previously—guess not, and not sure how this slipped past me . . . because when I heard it a couple weeks back, I just loved it. Terrific write, and that opening note to the chorus—just perfectly engaging . . . and what a great hook. Killer stuff, David. You’ve got so many good ones, but this one is among my favorites. Sweet!

My humble regards,

Deej

HI David ...

Big and powerful with so much emotion. The musical definition between chorus and verse is so profound and stellar. Your vocal shines like a diamond under the lights. As has been said, Rock n Roll anthem at its best. I think your superb skills are more evident in this song than any I've previously listened to. Everything about this speaks volumes of your talent and ability to deliver it. Keep writing and recording and I'll keep listening. Really!

Alan

Hi David,

What wonderfully inspired writing! You've excelled yourself here... again!!!

I love, love, love those opening lyrics.

This couplet of words is such a powerful way to start. When I heard these, I was committed to hearing the whole song.

I thoroughly enjoyed the journey you took me on. You're a songwriting powerhouse and you just keep on getting better and better.

All the best,
Noel
