The lyrics with all those novel references took it over the top for me. Excellent song! Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.

Good concept for a song, and I love those lyrics, excellent references in the chorus. The passion in your vocal convinces all of us that you're right.

David, You do pump energy into your vocals...the superpower becomes unwieldy in spots. Interesting narrative...starts off in dubious territory before settling into a robust lust story. The book shelf referencing is a good way of filling lines, finding rhymes and doing fine. I did something similar with Beach Boy song titles yonks ago. The 1st chorus is cool "It's Like Water for Chocolate Where the Crawdaddies Sing All the Light We Cannot See the Latest Stephen King It's Like the Color Purple Like the Girl on the Train And when we've made love for the fifth time it's like the art of racing in the rain" though the crawdaddies thing seemed a little forced tough I'm sure Delia won't mind. I went back for a 2nd listen but, to be honest, hearing fatigue kicked in pretty quickly with the strident vocal and general volume.

Clever chorus. I've read most of those except Crawdads and Hunger Games (but I saw the movies!). The latest Stephen King is Excellent! The Art Of Racing In The Rain is a favorite!!

Birchwood Veteran Joined: Sep 2016 Posts: 2,493 Netherlands, Haarlem	Hi David, I enjoyed this song from the first tone! It is typically your style and I like that style. Although I can't (and wont) copy it. I have to walk my path, as they say. I think I like your lyrics even more. They are huge, but always wrote so clever. Like when you come in with Steven King, or 50 shades of gray as a rhyme for 'day'. Wonderful! Those skills I would like to copy! I didn't hear any klick, clack or what else that does not belong in your song. While on the other hand the banjo and mandolin fit great in it. I enjoyed it a lot!

Although I don't know most of those books, I appreciate the art of making their titles sing. Good vocals and arrangement, maybe bit thin mix in my ears. Janne Hear My Music: Soundcloud YouTube
