I guess I forgot to hit 'post comment'. What I said was...WOW! I love this song! I love the hesitation after down for shelter/echoes of the pictures/where you are...I love the chordings and the harmonies. Seriously, I love this song!!
Sometimes I channel my anger into a song.

I don't think I've ever heard you with this tempo. Everything is right-on! Did you do all the parts as you usually do? If so, I didn't know you played electric lead like that & the organ so so well!! My ears thank you. Thanks.
The drum and keys track was on a CD sent to me and composed and performed by a friend, Don Landry. Instantly I wanted to put voices with it, so I did. Don likes it. Mission accomplished.

The other day I was having problems
So I called my son
Because he always helps me when I'm in trouble...
When the mouse can't see the dongle

GONE - My sequester song...
Chain wrapped around the dog park gate
Weeds growing on the school yard lawn
Where has everybody gone
The chairs are stacked
And the stage is dusty

BECAUSE OF YOU

Because of you, I packed her skate board and her clock
Because of you, I stashed it all behind the couch
Because of you, I'll never have to throw it out

Firstly, W O W ! ! I wonder what inspired this. Reminded me of a neighbor, whose 3 yr old Grandaughter drowned in their pool, several yrs ago. The mother was selected in top 10, for Miss TX pageant. Beautiful Girl. Changed everything for their family. Very Sad. I have to say, You, SIR are very talented !! Writing, descriptive- phrasing, lyricism, vocally, musically, & the oration was Spot On !! I'm Truly Impressed !! I will definitely check out your other work, soon. After I finished listening, I had to clear my throat & wipe my eyes, before trying to think about what I could say. It was moving, touching, interesting, & left me deeply moved. Very Sad, but Very Awesome & Well-Done, in every sense. Thanks, Brother.
