Robert,
A strong write. Very impressive for "30years back- and one of the first songs I wrote...".
Good production and an emotive vocal. Nicely mixed.
Poetry set to music. Very original in all respects.

Floyd,
I appreciate those kind comments!
Angry loss is a common combo.
This covers it well.
There's a hit at 1.49 that could be reduced - I found it distracting in headphones.
Well done.
Good ears, Ray! That click must be the acoustic guitar...and I`m so close to maxed on SC that I can`t afford to fix it.
What a great way to express oneself.
"my daddy died when I was young
burned out like a tired old sun
sinking out of my world
I wrote his name in the sand
never talked to the man
my vow after him hurled
never grow old let my blood run cold"
I did you come up with this line some 30 years ago? WOW is all I can say. Your lyrics are fantastic.
You also did a fantastic job on your vocal, backing tracks, and mix.
Great song.
Mario,
I`d had 25 years of repressing how I felt about my Dad`s death when I wrote that.
Needing to get real with a teenage son must have been good for my newly discovered songwriting interest.
A very supportive review- thank you!
Another well crafted song. Lyrics are poetry. I love the way you have the band playing that sweet melancholic music during break.
p.s. I love the "Two Bit Mystic" brand. Outstanding.
The moniker is intended to be a little fun at my philosophizing tendency- glad you approve of it and the song!
Robert
