The lyrics' message is so appropriate, too ... it somehow reflects what I imagine is your philosophy of life. Be that as it may, this is so well done, from all perspectives ... I wouldn't change a single thing. Standing ovation from me.

Thanks, James! You know how much I appreciate it, my friend.

Matthew 24:37
Thanks, Dan. My blood type is B positive, so... So that's where Hans was going with his Noah reference. I just wrote two songs about BEFORE Noah and how we were then and how we will be after the 2nd coming so to speak.

Thanks, Janne, and well said. Dave balanced the temperature perfectly. I'm grateful for the ups and downs that brought me to the pinnacle of apathy. Now I care so little for so much and so much for so little. So your comments brighten my day very much.

Or as Gregg Allman said, "everything is hittin' the note."

Janice said the lyric reminded her of her Mama’s advice to all her girls to never end the day angry with their loved ones or to go away from each other angry cause you never know what will happen. 😊

Fine supportive vid and the BiaB guys are sounding great - like that acoustic guitar in there.

Keep em coming!

AH, Janice's mama gave much good advice. We have a piece of wood that says "Never go to bed angry." That RELIVE Style was probably the first that I didn't change one of the members. Thanks, Bud. Got plenty more on the way.

Enjoy whatever happens!
