Izzy, the verse you quote is my favorite, too. Was worried that four car similes in a single verse might be a bit much, but the lyric pulls it off. First version of the music I put to these lyrics was a slow, minor key dirge. It was kind of cool but missed the "fever dream" interpretation I had in mind. So ended up with this major key rocker, and it seems better suited to the narrative. Yes, Dusty is real. Only the band (in a box) is fake. Ha! Glad you enjoyed the tune!

Dave, THANKS, glad you enjoyed the tune. One day I'm going to do a song a capella start to finish. But then it won't really be suitable for a User Showcase, will it??

Vic, THANK YOU for the listen and feedback. Turning somebody else's lyrics into a song is an interesting exercise, and one I enjoy. Always rewarding to get positive feedback.
