Hi All,

This is something new called Moonshot.

Miles between us
On the coast or outer space
Flying tonight
Every route feels untrue
I kinda wish this tired old moonshot was you

Lines round my eyes
The years above the radar
Flying away
Will somehow have to do
I kinda wish this tired old moonshot was you

I kinda wish this tired old moonshot was true
I kinda wish this tired old moonshot was you

Catch an updraft
Watch the clouds fade away
Flying this way
Navigate without a crew
I kinda wish this tired old moonshot was you

I kinda wish this tired old moonshot was true
I kinda wish this tired old moonshot was you

This is great and very current in todays style of music, finger picking guitar and vocals sit really well together and made me wonder if you needed the heavier guitar at all ?.

Great mix and great sound.

Thanks

The lyrics were really interesting and I got some cool imagery from it. Thanks for sharing.

A very well put together song. Enjoyed it a lot

Bob

A very engaging production. Interesting lyric and a signature sound that always delivers.

Peter

beatmaster,

Thanks very much.

Bob

Man, so prolific! I have no idea how you do it.

Great stuff as usual, Bob!

Lot's of passion in your vocal when you are singing the "I kinda wish this tired old moonshot was true" line.

Ember,

Thanks!

Bob

hi bob this is excellent all of it great listen thanks eric

Cool song...
Interesting lyrics...
Good production...
I enjoyed listening to it!

Hi Bob,

Again you shine with your production and composition. This is a very good song!
You vocal performance is stellar as always!

Thanks a lot for sharing!
Will

Bob,

As cool as only another terrific Bob Dean song can be. This one has a nice spacey feel ( the signature guitar) but your voice is passionate and earthy- such a good contrast. One of your best vocals, I think.
An excellent big sound you make with the simple band.

Robert

Nice song - I like the instrumentation and it's got a memorable chorus. And it's got your distinctive sound.

Graham,

Thanks - very appreciated.

Bob

Ah, the wonders of regional pronunciation and meanings.
The word "route" is said "root" in Oz and "route" as you said it means utter defeat in battle or to cut a groove in wood.
Due to this difference my tired old brain shot wandered into permutations and I had to come back to the song again.
Perplexing imagery in some parts but that's excellent - something to gnaw and wonder at.
VERY enjoyable.

Peter,

Thanks so much.

Bob

Hey there Bob, I admired the overall vibe on this. The different elements really glue well together and very soothing to hear. The vocals harmonize well with the other instruments. Thanks for sharing!

Dave,

That's very kind - thanks.

Bob

Bob,

Another good song. You are really on a roll!

Nice vocal - tons of passion...

I like the production - a bunch. LOVE the way you used the held electric chords...

Terrific listen.

fj

Prolific!!!

great sound

you are killing it!

Robert alluded to it...the lyric is ethereal yet the vocal is so organic and, yes, it does make for a great and effective contrast.

If CD's were still popular we'd say you are working on a boxed set. And ALL of them are so good.

You ain't one for filler!

Great band here as always and we agree with floyd on the held chords. Perfect glue.

And the vocal delivers and delivers.

Wonderful listen(s)

J&B

I agree completely with Floyd. I really like the way you put so much feeling in each and every song.

This is a winner.

Eric,

Thanks so much.

Bob

Jim,

Thank you.

Bob

Will,

Thanks - much appreciated.

Bob

Robert,

Thanks for the listen and kind words.

Bob

David,

Thanks - I appreciate that!

Bob

Bob, you are quite the weaver of words! Great job on the vocals on this! I always enjoy your work! I wish I could produce great quality songs at the pace that you do! Thanks, Torrey

Bob,

You consistently put out some very engaging songs—all of which just hang together and accentuate each other. There’s a killer album in the offing . . . if that’s the direction you are going. This tune, as do your others, creates such a compelling atmosphere—lot of emotion here, and your vocal sells it. Great stuff!

All the best,

Deej

Ray,

LOL! That's very kind of you - thank you.

Bob

So much to enjoy here Bob. Cool imagery, and backing that's just right and nicely mixed.

Cheers
John

Really well done! It flows tremendously well, and I liked how the lyrics really tell a story here. That, paired with your voice on this makes it a very grabbing listen for me. Perfectly catchy on the hook too - the chorus was a standout to me.

Nice work and thanks for sharing

Joe,

Thank you.

Bob

Floyd,

Thanks so much!

Bob

Really liked the vocal delivery and the acoustic guitar. Lyrics had me wondering which, I think, is a good thing in songwriting.

Bob,
Very nice write! Strong and airy. Nicely mixed and listens easy. Different from last several tunes, but in a very good way.

Thank you for sharing!

Misha.

Kenny,

Thank you.

Bob

Once again...
Great lyrics, terrific imagery
Love the passion in your vocals
Great job on the arrangement. Like Floyd said, love the sustained guitars
Once again...
You have inspired me to write better, more creative lyrics.

Thanks!

Steve

Janice & Bud,

Much appreciated - thank you!

Bob

Mario,

I appreciate that - thanks.

Bob

Hi Bob ...

Story song wrapped with great productions choices - how can you go wrong? You're signature sound is such a good listen. I could kick back and enjoy several albums of your music. Your songs always have such creative lyrics and you always find the perfect band to bring it to life. Sweet!

Alan

Torrey,

Greg,

That is very appreciated - thank you.

Bob

Bob,

When I listened to this yesterday, I left a comment on Sound Cloud but forgot to come back here and leave my comments. This getting old stuff ain't what it's cracked up to be!

You remind me of Dylan in one way ... your sound is so distinctive and immediately recognizable as Bob Dean after just one or two words. I never get tired of your signature sound ... what a treat!

Alan

Bob,

The sound of Mongolian metal folk music was still in my head when I tuned-in into this creation of yours. It sits so very comfortably with what I was just listening to!

You really know how to write and produce song after song after song. I don't know how you manage to maintain such a high standard so consistently.

All the best,
Noel

Enjoyed the listen. The band is right there, and sounds good. Your vocals never fail to inspire. I might have wished (simple country boy that I am) for a bridge or something that brought a little more clarity to the lyric. It feels a little "post-truth" to me, but maybe that's the point. Got me thinking and working to interpret it as a happy song. Much enjoyed.

Just back from criss crossing the Canadian prairies visiting relatives. Loved this song Well done
