Stefan,
A fine, direct rocker with some funlines behind the serious message, great energy on vocals ( as always) and an Amazingly Good production ... that`s just the song- I`ll watch the video now.
Robert
Hi Robert, thanks a lot for the compliments - hope you enjoyed the video as well.. All the very best to you and yours in these times of horror, Stefan

Absolutely hilarious video. I was laughing through the whole song.
Every thing about this production is beyond clever. I love the inflating rat at the close!
It's good to have you back. I raise a glass in hopes of better health for Maha. Prost! Dear Scott, what a lovely comment - thank you so much. I think I've meanwhile learnt that we share the same sense of humour, so I appreciate your words even more. Maha says 'Thank you' - she really appreciates that you take the risk of ruining your liver sacrificially just to save her health  ... But you're in good company: me. Prost and all thhe best to you and your family. Stay home and stay well, Stefan

Hi Hans,
thanks for your very long and funny comment on the song and the video (you know that writing and readng have become dificult, so forgive me, if I keep my reply short).
I was really delighted to read (and hear on the phone) that you enjoyed everything - most of all, of course, now that there were all the rats you had demanded...
Niet vergeten: Met je kont lekker thuis blijven, hoor!

Hi Stefan, I forget it all the time when writing you. I have to be short on my findings. But that's very difficult for me as you should know by now. But I try: We don't say this like you did in Dutch ;-) It's some kind of German, I presume.
Stay safe, Maha, you and the rats!
Hans

 What to say? This is over the top good from the opening to the "keep your attention" credits. Hey, you were cooking on that axe! Maha did a fine job with the mix. It sounds great on the KRK's. Here I am with all the time in the world and too lazy to make a lyric video while you are creating an epic Great playing, write, actors, animation, green screen and, yes, a good message. We share your feelings all the way. Kudos to you, Maha and the entire cast with the possible exception of the rats! Loved it. J&B Dear Janice, dear Bud, please excuse my belated reply (you know the reason why). Well, well, well - don't know what to say actually, but thank you so much for your very, very kind comment. Of course, I passed your remarks on the mix to Maha - she's in need for some uplifting words anyway, so she was doubly glad and says 'Thank you very much', too. Look, Bud, I don't think you should compare the time we're spending on our videos - you guys are coming up with so many great songs while I only manage to accomplish 3 or 4 song/video production in the course of one entire year. Once again thank you so much - please stay away from the virus, will ya... All the best to both of you, Stefan

Man, you guys are my favorite group in so many categories, Stefan. Maha and Peter are fabulous. Nobody has more fun, and thanks so much for sharing it. Such talent, energy and a brilliantly genius sense of humor. Definitely the best medicine. Hi BabuMusic, if your intention was to make me blush, you definitely succeded - thanks an awful lot for that cascade of compliments ! Please stay healthy ! All the best, Stefan

Hahaha - brilliant!!! This standard is par for the course for you, I know (having listened to some of your other songs, too) - but, for mere mortals like me, it is indeed something to aspire to and (in the best sense of the word, of course) be somewhat "jealous" of, haha. Anyway, the video made me really smile and the audio on SoundCloud is top-notch. Superb job! Dear James, these are times that nobody would have imagined still a couple of weeks ago, and we have all the reasions in the world to be sad, afraid, desperate. I am convinced, however, that humor is one of the means that can help us to stand times of horror, so I am glad we could give you a few minutes of laughter. I think we all have our own ways of expressing ourselves: I envy you for your ability to write the most emotional and touching lyrics ! Stay in and stay well, James, Stefan

Another funny rock'n'roll song, great mix and vocals, I like those backing vocals. Solo guitar work is also admirable. There is an important message and you have delivered it very well, almost in a satirical way.
Funny video showing lots of hard work, enthusiasm and love for music and actring.
Janne Dear jannesan, thanks a lot for your kind words. I am glad that the message could come through despite the more or less funny wrapping. Please stay healthy, jannesan, Stefan
