I'm glad you like this one so much, Tess. I actually wrote it for a friend of mine (a terrific girl) who'll be getting married next summer. I only see her once a year at her brother-in-law's Labor Day weekend party, and when I heard she was engaged, this song just came out... The sentiment could apply to any young girl, however... "You'll always be this young if love comes first and you stay filled with life."

This is so beautiful...*deep sigh*

Just going through February's RPM Challenge songs... Upped the volume on the vocals a bit (hopefully not too much).

Great song about your doggy - Love the slide too.

great song!!

Thanks to everyone for so many positive comments about this song (and thank you again to Kavin for making it sound so good). So many great dogs out there and we were just lucky enough to adopt one of the best.

I love my dogs. all 3. :)

good one fellas. nice slide guitar too.

Hey, cool collab, the slide guitar does sound excellent. The whole thing sounds great.

Booty job.

fantastic, mans best friend indeed. Big ol' shepard mix, yeah, I had one of those kind once, called him Max, your song is bringing memories to my mind. Thanks for this.

Any song about Dr.Who is alright in my books. This is a really great song, nicely recorded.

Now That's a great song! Nice collab guys!

beautiful song. and lucky Bandit: he who writes such music can't be a bad man..

Good one guys.

That was fun, thanks Keith. Now I wanna go out and adopt a puppy!

What a great song. Love the slide guitar too.

Oh yeah, MIGHTY collab, fellas!

superb work here man. Cool accent too. Guitar progressions and slides are *PERFECT*. Flows like a river...

Big thanks to Kavin for making this song more than I could have possibly imagined with his incredible slide guitar.

Tess voice is just too got not to fave it myself.

Damn, this is excellent. This quick improv of yours is simply perfect.

Ha! First one in on this nugget of goodness!

Excellent funky foot-chase scene track! I already feel the illness setting in. "It's fun?" Understatement... Great track.

I have dreams of playing this well... No seriously... Just the other night I was playing smooth like this (and sadly awoke to find I am still just a mere mortal). Man, I hope this pre-sets me for some good REM sleep tonight. Great track, Kavin!

Ha! First one in!

Solid track... This should show up in an indie film soundtrack. Somehow smooth and edgy all rolled into one. Excellent arrangement and performance.

Great arrangement... Very clean and smooth.

Here's another nugget... What a great voice!... And so well played!

Instant fave... How have I missed this song for so long? Off to see what other goodness you have here at Alonetone.

Man, you do have some cool neighbors. LOVE Wyen's backing vocals... Perfect counterpoint to the perfect guitar and edgy lead vocal. Very well done, my friend!

Thanks Rob! Glad you like the stuff... The new CD is currently in the works!

Just messing with some simple added arrangement... It'll probably need some volume work with the extra guitar tracks, but I kinda like the additions.

Yeah I faved it... I reserve the right!... My dad wrote it... It's my favorite poem of his!

Great track... As always!

Woody Guthrie AND Kavin... One hell of a nice recipe for music.

Ah, good to see another upload! I hope you continue to dip into the old catalog of tunes... An oldie but goodie, this one.

...And this might be the best of the lot. Man, what a great sound! Six songs uploaded are simply not enough from you! I'll be looking out for more. Keep writing and playing. You've picked up a fan here in NY.

Radio ready sound. Damn... I guess all of strawbfan's tracks are going to be this good.

Man, how have I missed out on this stuff these last couple of months... Good thing I randomly picked a point on the alonetone map to see who's in the state... To think of what I would have missed out on!
