Seems Floyd always has something to say, and he says it with an honest, no holds barred quality. This one is destined to be in his top tier. Thanks, ed... Easily one of your better writes and sessions.
So much to like in this. I like the drums and glad to see it was P&W drums..... Nice treatment.
I like the vox.. Is there a slight chorus on the vox? I hear doubling but it sounds like some FX there too. Either way.... really good work.
I guess sleeping at the Holiday Inn Express isn't all it's cracked up to be although I have done it and I'm now a qualified expert in many areas of knowledge and skill as a result. Thanks, Herb...

FJ,
ohh yeah, the power of conditioning...
Wow! That woke me up. Excellent message masterfully delivered! Such a big production. FJ, one of your best tunes this year hands down. Very rounded production. Ace vocals. Liked it. Thank you for sharing.
Misha. Much appreciated, Misha. Hey Floyd ...
So good to hear another masterpiece from you after my extended absence from the forum. I actually listened to part of it several days ago, but just now had the time to comment. Listened to it all the way through this time. Strong, powerful and catchy! The intro and vocals are what really caught my attention. Everything is terrific, but those two things shined slightly brighter than everything else for me. As always ... so well done!@
Take care ...
Alan Thanks, Alan. Good to see you back.... Didn't expect such an angry rocker, but it is surprisingly good. The band works well and shows how good BIAB is also at creating heavier sounding rock. Catchy melody. Mixed nicely. The vocals deliver the message clearly, really feels like the story tells about a real big mouth person. The strong backing vocals together with the chord progression bring some nice memories of the 80's.
Janne Thanks, Janne!! floyd,
Powerful sound.
Gorgeous Vocals!
This Rock tune is very nice.
A majestic performance is delivered with the chord progression I - VIm - IV - V7, the royal road of pop music.
I think this is the area you are most good at.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Shigeki Adachi - Thanks for the nice comments.... WOW! This has killer vocals, a spot on timely lyric and the band to go with them.
As others have mentioned this has a Springsteen feel to it and those drums are just awesome.
There are few accolades to add after reading all the preceding responses. Dittos to them all. Your use of BiaB tracks has always been a showcase on the showcase and this is no exception.
And, but assuredly not last, THAT MIX. Zero mud, every track has it's place on the soundstage but w/o sounding isolated. Magic.
Your artwork is so good!
You moved the bar into the stratosphere!
J&B
J&B - thanks fro mentioning the vocals and lyric and band...and Springsteen  ...and the drums... and the mix...AND the art work... and the bar

Sounds like someone I'm related to. Also sounds like someone on the big stage...
Excellent rocker with all the right hooks in the chorus.

floyd, your posts are always a showcase unto themselves. The write, the killer vocal, the shining production are all evidence of a master at the top of his game. An excellent rocker that shows what a powerful tool BIAB is in the hands of an expert. Great job, Tom

Hi Floyd,
This is a different Floyd again!
And what kind of Floyd.
This is a great rock song, just the one to play loud to let the neighbours enjoy it too!
We also love the lyrics.
Exclamation marks all over!
Rob and Anne-Marie

Enough has been said in the comments. Hard hitting song in all its aspects.
Why it is not on the charts is a mystery to me.

We have a lot to learn from you (at least I have). You have a clear talent to compose, arrange, mix, play, sing. This is really impressive! Although I'm not too much of a rock person, I have to say that this tune is catchy, vocals are great, powerful guitar and arrangement. I liked it a lot!

Hi Floyd,
I'm a bit late on the party I noticed, but it is very impressing to hear you proved yourself again!
I thought you already did, but you often outdo yourself and this is the underlining of it!
Very strong vocals, a fantastic rhythm and a strong band. What's more to say when all of this was already said?
Maybe; thanks for making this song (??)
Hans

Floyd,
I've been hearing this, and a lot of yours on PG Radio. You make it seem easy, 'cept, I know it's not. I listen to a lot of your stuff and am amazed at the arrangements and the production. You seem to be able to take almost anything someone says and make a good hook out of it. This one is one of my favorites. You sure give me something to shoot for. Keep 'em coming!
