My light-hearted take on a serious issue.
Over- prescription of powerful and addictive drugs, and the unknown and (to some) worrying relationship between doctors and the drug companies.

Thanks @doktordoktor! I think you definitely picked up what I was going for on this one. Cool to have the final product received in the way I intended.
Thanks, Colleen! I'm surprised that people are enjoying this one because it is so casually done. I guess it goes to show that simplicity is often the best route.
@doktordoktor - Thanks! I know my voice isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, so I appreciate the feedback. Keeps me motivated to keep playing, recording, and singing.
Thanks so much for stopping by to listen and provide encouraging words, @peppermintsky! I feel like you've been listening to my stuff longer than almost everyone here, so I feel honored that you keep coming back to listen.
@castratibrothers: thanks for the feedback. I tend not to notice if my vocals are too low in the mix (unless it's super obvious) so it helps to have a fresh set of ears point such things out. And I'm glad to hear you liked the lyrics -- I encourage you to check out the original version by The Verve Pipe because their version is far superior to mine!
@slkrell, @greg, and @theproods: Thank you so much! I thought of a special someone when I was singing it which maybe explains why it resonates. Since you like it, you might check out Brandi Carlile's version too.

Raw and honest. Cool!
Great vocals - cool grittiness and vibrato.

Cool vibe.
This reminds me of a Belle and Sebastian tune. I've found myself wanting to listen to it twice.
@peppermintsky Your tone is one of the best on this site, so your words of encouragement are definitely a confidence booster! Thank you!
@TheProods: Thanks! Sometimes it's nice therapy to just give a good yell in a song.
Great rock yell! Great range...
I'd stop and listen for awhile. Nice sounds.
I like your tone very much - sounds great set against this stripped down arrangement.
kicking this version.... love it
Comments made by Tom
It's like Syd Barrett joined Guns N' Roses for a day to rewrite (and sing) their song "Coma." Cool stuff!
Tapping my toe to the rhythm guitar on this one - you're definitely onto something here!
Thanks, Dok! I appreciate the appreciating!
Liking the guitar on this one!

Sounds like something off an 80s John Carpenter soundtrack. Very cool!
