Very nice. Well done Herb and Greg.
The chorus is very memorable.
I loved the 'band', the lead guitar and the the vocals. The BG vocals is a nice touch too.
Cheers,
Mike Mike, thanks for listening and commenting. Man I love my studio musicians. What can I say? They are the best. Thanks

Herb / David,
Solid tune. Excellent lyrics and production! Guitars are sparkling on this. Congrats to both of you and thank you for sharing!
Misha.
Super collaboration. Well done guys

Tangmo I agree with Jim. Those are stand-out lines in an outstanding song. I really enjoyed listening to this. It just bounced on into my soul. Still "playing" in my head as I type. Vocals and guitars are beautiful. Well-built production too.
Man, this is good! Love the guitar work, excellent! Lyrics are very well thought out and expressed. Vocals are great, and love the background vocals.
Great collab! Nothing not to like here.
Steve

Steve Young Misha, Scott, Tangmo, and Steve.... thanks guys for the kind words and we're so glad people are liking this song and finding all sorts of gems in it that grab them and keep them interested. This was a labor of love for both David and myself as we worked on this and debated the details.... what to leave in and what to leave out, as Bob Seger said in one of his tunes. Thanks for listening and taking the time to express your comments to us.

This is a pro song, all the way. It's hard to pick any particular part out (although the guitar solos were standout) because all of it's at the level of excellence - writing, production, singing and playing.

Herb and David, this is a great sounding country rock tune! Great job on the vocals! You can't go wrong when David has input on a song (speaking from experience) ! Loved that twin lead solo! Thanks, Torrey

Eaglesesque indeed.
Nicely packaged.
Well done.
RayC Wow - you guys did some really good work on this! A really well thought out tune, both lyrically and instrumentally. It really packs a punch, and that chorus is delightfully catchy as well.
A solid write all the way around - you guys should be proud! Thanks for sharing smile
Deryk Very nice song! I enjoyed listening. Thanks for sharing.
I don't know if you want to publish it, but it is probably produced a bit to loud (volume wise) for places like Spotify and YouTube.
Will Nice collaboration. Very catchy chorus, good lyric and some excellent guitar playing.
Very enjoyable.
Peter Yeah... thanks for listening.... Here recently there have been a number of Eagles concert videos on the tube... and my wife and I both love the Eagles... so this song got a bit of influence from those guys. We sure enjoyed working on this and David really didn't have much of an idea as to what the final version would sound like as we were working on it together. Thank you all for listening and commenting. Dave and I appreciate the kind words.

Hey you two, dunno if y'all were intentionally shooting for that Byrds/Eagles/Pederson/Hillman sound or not but it is certainly there.
And in our book that's a good thing!
"The clock, turns so slowly, but the years flew by so fast
Trying to find someone to love, but it never seemed to last"
I like that juxtaposing how at the moment things can seem so slow but in retrospect it flew by quickly.
Nice production, guitar/vocal performance and band. Guitar solo gave us a bit of a Don Felder feel contributing even more to the Laurel Canyon feel.
Good one for sure!

Yes, definitely has an early Eagles feel to it. Sometimes hard to believe that was almost 50 years ago.

It's great to see and hear all the comments coming in on this song. Thanks for listening. I apologize for such a short reply with so many responses in one post. I might be gone for a few days and wanted to get everyone in and responded to before I leave. Just found out my sister is in the ICU and is unconscious. They have her in an induced coma after being admitted and attempts to wake her this morning failed 2x. She passed out a few days ago after calling 911 and was not breathing when medics arrived. How long she was with O2 is the question no one knows. Keep us in your prayers and I'll see you soon.
