Hello Marty
You have written a very true song.
Before I come to the musical evaluation still a few sentences to the statement of the song.
The question of who is going to pay for all this has not been asked for many years.
We already pay for it. But it's getting more and more expensive...
And it will never become cheaper. Unfortunately.
And since we (and I write consciously we, because each of us contributes its part to the destruction) continue to destroy the earth and its innumerable animals and plants with all power, nevertheless our planet will cope with it.
Because the earth has something that we are slowly running out of and will seal our end: TIME !
Ok Marty. After so much negative now the positive.
Your song is incredibly good
You sing it really great.
When you sing louder I like your voice even better.
Dave does a great job again.
His guitar solo is excellent
An impressive song with a lot of depth that should definitely make you think.
Steve is certainly as excited about the song as we all are
Thanks for this, Marty
Many greetings
Andi ;-) Thanks, Andi. A very balanced comment. hehe. Hey, if I ever miss one of your posts here, please nudge me. Hi Marty,
I thoroughly enjoyed your song - well played and sung.
Congratulations.
Best Regards
Nigel Thanks for your kind comments, Nigel. This is outstanding. The guitar work by Dave is beautiful. The passion shows in your voice, Marty. You're a good man as well as an outstanding musician. Not a thing would I change about this song. Sincerest congratulations. Thanks, James. I had a good time playing some of your music for friends yesterday. Marty,
Sorry to hear about your friend Steve. Y'all wrote a good one - a very clever write. You really covered a lot of issues!!
Good BAND choices. Nice vocals. Well mixed.
Dave's guitars sound great (of course).
A very nice video, too...
Enjoyed.
fj Thank you, Floyd. Steve's birthday is the 21st of this month. We wrote and played in bands together for 6 decades. Once when we were at Scepter Records (we were 18), we stayed up all night writing 23 verses for a song. A long story.

Very strong and important message, sad to know that so many things have gone even worse on our planet in 20 years, but at least the ozone layer is in better shape now. Beautiful, yet very sad video also - I was hoping to see Sting step up at the end as a guest star  Catchy melody. Smooth sounding band, good vocals. Janne Thanks, Janne. Sting was too expensive. Very cool vibe Marty. Cool guitar interplay with the vocal. Super vocal and lyric Marty. Jimmy Buffett vibe. Cool acoustic solo. Well done Thanks, Scott, Jimmy Buffett vibe is a good thing. Bravo! Well done. You, Dave, and your late friend Steve, all hit your marks perfectly. Very well written song. Outstanding vocals. Great guitar playing. Production was top notch. The Band kicked in good too.
Nice one. Thanks, jptjptjpt, and I'm getting much better at typing your moniker. The message remains the same though more urgent and less well heard...perhaps the planet will repair itself over time...I suspect it will transform and adapt across millennia but living creatures have Buckley's.
Terrific vocals, lovely Bell ringing guitar and a good Band I your B.
Yes, Ray, totally agree that the planet will be more or less unaffected by our selfishness. We say we're killing the planet, but that's just because we think we are the center of the universe. We're only killing ourselves.

"There's payments due. We cannot charge them" Yep. Indeed. Ain't gonna parse it out as excellency rules with the vocals, lyric, bass and Dave's fine electric/acoustic contributions. Thanks for reviving this ... and Sting  And the vid imagery was spot on. Well produced! J&B

Marty,
Neat tune. A very relevant and timely resurrection & message. Excellent lyrics and performance! Dave's guitar tracks fit very well. Mix is clear and listens very well. Nice video too. I think your friend would approve.
Thank you for sharing.
Misha.
P.S. I think we can "try" all we want to be aware of the issues, strike for a lighter footprint., but nature has a final word. There is a dark joke about corona. (Corona-Latin crown)
"Man says to nature: I am the King of the world....Nature says: - Of course you are, here is a corona." Thanks, Misha. It's unfortunate that the message is still relevant. Hi Marty,
I enjoyed your song very much!
Can not believe these lyrics were from the 90's. They are very actual!
Also your harmonies in the vocals are very well done, like your own singing.
And then there was that solo... It all fits great.
So, that is why I enjoyed it much,
Hans Hi, Hans. Thanks. So glad you liked it. This is a nice one Marty. Good vocals.
Slightly boomy at the bottom end to my ears but that could be my ears.
Vic Thanks, Vic. Your opinion matters a lot. Marty, it's a shame LM probably never heard this! You did such an excellent job on it! Dave's contribution to this is top level as usual! You did right by your song writing partner here! Thanks, Torrey Thanks, Torrey. She was just the motivation to write the song. We didn't really think she'd pick it. Well, maybe Steve did. We played almost every song The Beatles recorded, including the pre-George Martin stuff.

Marty this is your best to date!
Sorry to hear about Steve.
You're right put a guitar in Dave's hand and he is immediately in his comfort zone. Excellent chops Dave.
Unfortunately Dave this message is more true today then it was in the early 1990s. Excellent vocal, mix, and lyrics.
Loved it.
You know you're getting old when a recliner and a heating pad is your idea of a hot date!

I never heard Linda's album.... probably a good thing.
Regarding the song. I like it musically. Nice melody and great harmony work. Not much musically to pick apart.
Nice work. I never heard it either, Herb. And, yes, it is a good thing if she was to sing on it. Steve and I did, however, get a cassette of some San Fran band doing this song. Well, it's a shame that it's been so long since you wrote this and not that much has been done. In fact, except for the ozone, things are much worse. People could stop eating animals and that would help a lot but I've no hopes for that in my lifetime. Anyway, the song is brilliant and I hope its message is heard. Keep up the valiant work! Totally agree, TuneMonger. "Your DIsh" is on the same page. Catchy song with a message.
It's not every day you hear the words "outlawed fluorocarbons" in a song! Ah, thanks for mentioning that phrase, David. I always thought it was funny too. It was originally "illegal fluorocarbons" but "The outlawed" sang better. Thanks to everyone that commented on my contributions to this song, and thanks to Marty for the invite, just a fabulous song IMHO. Thanks, Dave. Have I told you lately that I really really like you? Haha. You legitimize my songs, man.
