Very cool fade out.

Loved it!

Thanks, Bob. It started with a weird bass riff that demanded a weird chord progression that insisted on a weird melody. The lamenting old man wanted to tell his story.

This is haunting and sweet at the same time.
And a great job on the acoustic too!

Thanks, Steve. Haunting and sweet --I like that. The Celtic crooner would've liked it too.

Oh I don't know how it ends!!!!

But I know there is a movie in there somewhere!


HAHAHAHAHA Man, I gotta tell ya, David, I actually laughed out loud reading your comment. Love your mind, sir. So the ending... well, the boy lived a pious life, always doing the right thing, hoping to one day meet his love in Heaven. As it turned out, she ended up in hell for cheating on him.


Enjoy whatever happens!
