Hi Marty.
The song finished playing about 10 minutes ago and I can still hear it loud and clear in my mind.
This is such a brilliant write.
Everything about this grabbed me and held me.
You and Dave have produced a really fine piece of music.
Loved it!
--Noel

My dear Marty, at least you do one thing well: songs.
Laurent Haha. Thanks, Laurent. It's everythng YOU do, and, by gum by golly, you sure do write some good ones. Marty and Dave, you two are dynamite together.
Marty great bass and vocals.
Dave great guitar licks!
A super mix.
Outstanding blues! Thank you, Mario! Cool song. Strong! But wrong!  As always, your bass and Dave's noodling are VERY good, and the lyrics are pretty cool too. Enjoyed the ride! Thanks, Brain. You know how we always talk about words? Well, I think you meant "wronhg."  Hi Marty and Dave,
As I wrote on YT this song is a very attractive Blues. I like that kind of songs.
The solo is great, but I need to add 'of course'. Dave is really in his element in these types of songs!
And you did a great job on the lyrics andvocals, but also on the bass (of course, too).
There was one thing that was a bit a pitty: The song was too short...
Couldn't you extended those lyrics, is crossing my mind.
Nice day,
Hans Thanks for everything, Hans. Sure, I could write words all day, and the guy I'm writing about has a whole life of wrong-doings. But...

What a cool lyric Marty. The song really laid out the feel of the lyrics. Perfect vocal and cool basslines. Dave's biting guitar was perfect for the song as well. One of my favs of yours

Marty + Dave.
I was 99% sure I replied couple of days ago... green dot told me that I didn't. Mystery.
Super tune! Funny lyrics so well performed! Only Marty can do it. Cool vocals / phrasing. All played parts by you and Dave are perfect. Mix is spotless. Really liked this one, thank you for sharing.
Misha.
P.S. Reading the title, I thought the tune is about me. Haha. I'm 100% sure I've done that, AND it was always my best comment ever. I'm just glad you're here, Misha. Ha! About you? No way you were told stuff like that growing up. That's right, you're so wrong about that. You have a wonderful imagination, Marty, and we all reap the benefits. 😊
You and “on fire Dave“ sound great and the band is cooking too (love the vintage electric piano.)
Excellent session guys all around and nice addition of the tambourine tracks to the drums.
The vortex in the vid during Dave’s solo is cool!
You packed a lot of goodness in to 3:37
Enjoyed it!
J&B Thanks so much, Janice & Bud. You guys pack so much into an excamation point, and I enjoy everything you do. Marty, Dave, wow! Super song and superlative performances by all. Just perfect. Thanks, Ron. Dave makes everything right. Hi Marty & Dave,
You gentlemen never disappoint. Everything you do is pure gold - this one's 24-carat!
Dave's guitar is on fire, your bass line is so perfect, and the lyric is a great read. Your vocal sits in there perfectly! This is great music! Everything is perfectly done and produced. Congrats to both of you on a terrific song!
Take care,
Alan Thanks for being here, Alan. Your music and comments are treasured.

Marty and Dave...there is absolutly nothing wronhg with this won...very kool lirycs and so whittie! their is somethinhg that reely apeels two me about this sonhg...I kan't quiet put my fingger on it just yet...but isle figuure it out...brilyant!! Ah, good to know we speak the same language, Dan. You caught that intentional error too. Hope you figure out where to put your finger to find what really appeals to you. ==Wait, sorry. That sounds so wrong. Let's go back to our first language --the one with flats and sharps. Flames, smoke & a smouldering fret board kick this off really well & keeps he touch paper light.
Excellent stuff Marty & Dave. Wonderful. Thanks, Ray. You too have an interesting way of saying things. Hi Marty.
The song finished playing about 10 minutes ago and I can still hear it loud and clear in my mind.

--Noel Wow! Thanks so much for all that, Noel. Much appreciated. What a cool lyric Marty. The song really laid out the feel of the lyrics. Perfect vocal and cool basslines. Dave's biting guitar was perfect for the song as well. One of my favs of yours Thanks, Scott. Really happy you mentioned the feel matching the lyrics --not always something I'm good at. Dave's guitar. Marty's clever lyrics. Everything is done right. Very convincing vocal. One of your best. Thanks so much, Scott!

Sounds like a song about me: if I do A, it's wrong and if I do the opposite of A, it's also wrong  So easy to relate to the main character of the theme. Excellent storytelling. Nice cliffhanger ending or should I say bridgehanger  The melody, the chords and the instrumentation are in beautiful balance. Very pleasant bassline, BIAB instruments fit perfectly with it and Dave's guitar is doing everything right. The mix sounds great and the vocals make me nod with satisfaction. Janne
