austin,

This is a very good song and, as has been stated, a very well done Eagles-sounding production. Quite enjoyable - from that angle....

BUT.... (and I may be in the minority here...)

No question, it's a great "back-story". But I think you did yourself (and the song) a "disservice" (by telling it). It becomes a "derivative" - when it could STAND ON IT'S OWN. Take this song, as it is, and put a "harder" production to it... A snappy drum, a pounding bass, and a "hard-hitting" guitar and it could ROCK!! And be the very cool, well written song that it is - without the "background"... it's that good.

My opinion, of course. I like what you do.
