I Love it.

R.W. is Bernie to your Elton. This has That kind of dynamic.
The lyric is interesting and uniquely original - much like Bernie's lyrics were.

"I still have that picture
Her back to the camera
The smokes in her pocket
Standing like a Samurai"

Exquisite.

Like Elton's melody/music this constantly surprises. And adds to the lyric by doing so.

An Outstanding Production.
I listened several times to catch more and more.
Nice changing landscape of guitars.
Well placed drum flourishes.
Those pushes work! I don't think I've ever tried a push on a hold.
(I've always played a track with the push I hear and then move the BIAB push to match that. Mostly, I stopped doing pushes)

LOVE the added guitar in the chorus. A Man Who Understands A Hook.

The vocals and harmonies are a delight.

This is very well done.
Thanks for continuing to write and produce music. I fear the days are numbered. severely.

Damn. Good. Music.
