Regarding the lyrics ... we' ve gone too far down the nuclear armaments path and will one day pay the price - peace has been celebrated (past tense), but now the beast is released. That's my guess anyway.

Regardless, a good punchy song added to the pool of your variety and very likeable to me for the musical reasons above.

Thanks, Andrew. Yeah, that piano is part of the RealStyle, but delaying the entry until the 3rd verse served as a nice dynamic push for the rest of the song. Plus it let the electric guitar pair carry the first part of the song without distraction. I find most of the RealStyles to have nicely nested instrument parts, but it's up to the user to decide when they go where.

Glad you liked the BGVs. Used them more than my usual once or twice on this one. The song just seemed to scream for them. One of my favorite parts of producing a song...

Hope the more optimistic projections about the future come to pass, but the fact that it's a conversation is in itself problematic, isn't it? We DO live in interesting, and troubling, times...
