Great song, great singer, great guitarist, great band.
You've used a rather unusual rhyme scheme (at least for me) that works fantastically for the song.
I think that's one of your best smile[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]
Thanks, Brain. You always ask me to check your lyrics and yet I think you're one of the best lyricists I know, so it's extra special seeing your comment on mine.

I paid off all my credit cards last year. I was almost $19,000 in debt with those things. Now, I owe a grand total of $87.00 on my credit cards.

Really nice!

Alan
Thanks, Alan. So now you are a fresh target for those looking to take another piece. smile

I'm belted in here with no way to steer.” Yeah!

Dave’s solo is smoking hot. We were thinking of a Kenny Wayne vibe when listening and then saw the vid had a strat guy that kinda looked like him. smile
And the vid images nail the narrative.

Your vocals are standout and the vocal tag was cool.

Nice mix and arrangement also.
Simply a great package.

Enjoyed it!

J&B
Thanks, you two-who-are-one. Yeah, first thing I did when the new BiaB came out was check out the new Styles. This one grabbed me and said write me. Dave joined in and made it soar. Kenny Wayne --yeah, he's outstanding guitarist, too. Special thanks for all your kind words.

I can always tell when you and Dave are enjoying yourself. You sing with a smile.
It sounds like the band are in my room.
Good one.

Vic
Thanks for inviting us all in your room, Vic. Yeah, the best of us are probably the main (easier) target, although the worst of us wouldn't hold back from taking from each other.

Enjoy whatever happens!
