That being said, I'm going to come at this from a different a angle. I see the lyrics and can hear your voice singing them. Then I listen, and realize that although you manage to have all of your songs sound like "you" each one is a surprise. That can't be easy.

I'm truly engrossed by your melodic choices. It amazes me that I can think I know where you're going and you make different choices than I would guess. Similar; but you know how to vary things just enough to keep it ultra-interesting; but not so far that there's no sense of repetition at all. It's familiar yet unexpected. HOW?

I felt special need to mention that your drum choices were fantastic. In sound/style and execution. At least that's my take. If I heard that and didn't know, I would wonder who the drummer was. That's actually saying a lot.

Great song! Thanks for sharing it with us mortals.

Thanks for the thoughts. I like that you always think a little different bout these things. I've been writing and singing since I was 14. Hopefully, in that time, I have developed music that I can call my own. BIAB allows me (us) to take that to the next level by allowing us to develop production chops, too - which can then make our music even more "me". The possibilities are there - almost endless these days.

It pleases me to no end that you approve of my drums choices "In sound/style and execution". It's always tough to please a drummer...
