Vic, what a fantastic song
Loved those lyrics
You have played with some royalty haven't you. I have had a similar "what if" myself.
Great vocal and arrangement.
Super backing band and mix
IMHO this is your best to date.

Hi Vic.

I really enjoyed this. You've nailed the rock feel, and the mix sounds very good to me through my headphones. Great vocal!

Thank you BD.
I was halfway through the write when I realised it was similar to "Can't Explain", but I just couldn't get out of it.

Hi Floyd.
Isn't it strange how some lines just naturally drop in and others have to be fought for tooth and nail.
Maybe we should just stay in bed and let them get snagged in our mind's net on the way to wherever else they were going.
Thanks for commenting. Glad you approve.

Hi Marty.
Sorry it took so long to reply.
Thank you for listening. It wasn't my first band but it was my first band that sounded like a band.

Overall, a nice rock song Vic, and your vocal was good.
Well-chosen use of BIAB guitars. Really liked the guitar solo!
