Three consecutive replies from Australia. That's pretty cool.

Brian, glad you enjoyed it! "Drama, irony and pathos" sum up my life, or so it seems. Ha!

Thanks, Mike! I only gave zero thought to the nuances of a suitable production approach beyond assigning the A and B substyles. It was always on my "One day I'll go back and do that..." list. Which is quite a long list. But I did get to scratch THIS song off of that list. THANKS for the BGV comment; they were a lot of fun...

Hey, Noel! Gee, I might be blushing a little, maybe a lot. I'm definitely the weak link in our collaboration, which probably makes me work a little harder at it. I share your appreciation for this story and the supporting lyrics. R.W. is a talented lyricist for sure. It's a good day when I wake up and there are fresh lyrics in my inbox. smile
