So I had this song, not quite finished, I sort of insisted Greg Connor sing it, he also wrote the last verse. Steve Krell added the solo break. I think they helped to bring the song alive. Oh yeah, I'm in the Chorus ...... hiding Somewhere. :) :)

Like it! Love those chords. And I love how the tension goes up and down - a big release at the start of the chorus, and then it gradually grabs you again as the chorus completes and we're back into another verse. I was wondering how it would feel at the end... and it's perfect. Off to watch the video now :)

Somehow this song, "Higher Ground" squeaked out from some hidden place.

It’s a foot tapping morning already and I’ve only been awake 10mins ... ooh yeah!!
Woah... this is mighty fine. Heading Somewhere... yeah...
Excellent songwriting
Great song Roger!
The summer of 2020 was a real challenge but we’all got creative
Strong emotions here. Captures our crazy COVID times perfectly
Great reflection of what we're all feeling. It's been the summer of simple pleasures.
I love that 12 string sound!
Beautiful song. The pauses offer striking clarity.
The sparseness and the lyrics work terrifically to set the mood. Nice job.
A good old foot tapper and not naff at all
Nice one Roger. NOT naff at all!
Love this Roger! Such a happy feel.
Beautiful message and wonderful song! It’s been a great Summer my friend. Here is the summary: https://alonetone.com/MTBottles/tracks

Rita and I both enjoyed the video. We especially liked “the good wife” singing back up. I have to say the ending really got our attention.
Sounds like most of the evenings I have out or in .... liking the trippy vibe too
Love the feel of this one. Kinda trippy. It's got a Mamas and Papas vibe to it.
