When You Look At Him Keeping the Dylan thing going.... I guess this is the "alt take" as I'm going with my guide vocal because I think it was more Dylanish than Leon's take. I tried to be on the right side of parody - hope it works. Leon - lyrics and backing vocal. I sang, played rhythm, and lead gtr & harmonica.

Yeah! This is great, guys  You should handle the lead vocal more often, Peter! I dig Leon's vocals of course but you have something special happening too. Man, great lyrics! Love the harp and guitar work too. Enjoyed!

Leon & Peter,
"There are dreams we cling to
Thought we know they can’t be true
There are lies we tell ourselves
In order to get through"
Nice write. Throughout.
The production works well. Sort of "defines an era".
This sounds like a lost track from The Band.
The vocal is nice!
The ending harp is terrific - perfect ending...
Y'all always deliver.

Peter & Leon,
Another excellent lyric... Leon does that wry observation thing as well as anyone I can think of.
This is the first time I`ve heard you lead the vocal, Peter and I like your twang- sure its Dylanesque, but its still all yours!
The rollicking backing is just right for the song - which is catchy as well as smart.
Cool, very cool.
Robert

Whoa....man, does that ever capture Dylan's mid 60's period...was that Al Kooper on the organ? As Robert so well stated, "Leon does that wry observation thing as well as anyone I can think of" And, you nailed that Dylanesque vocal feel. Something we should hear more of! Nice guitar, write, vocals, harp...nice everything. Well done y'all!!! J&B

Really nice work As others mentioned, this definitely has a Dylan vibe to it. Love the backing tracks, love your vocals, and love the lyrics too. Nicely catchy and really powerful with its delivery as well. Not a thing I'd change on this one - thanks for sharing
Cheers,
Deryk

Great lyrics, especially the chorus. I wish I would have penned that. And yes, very Dylan.

"My friends are saying I can’t see
What’s right under my nose
But I have no desire to view
What they’re eager to expose
There are dreams we cling to
Thought we know they can’t be true
There are lies we tell ourselves
In order to get through"
Wonderful writing! Great retro vibe - To the composition and especially the vocal!
well done all around!
