Title is perfect metaphor for being behind on your luck. In a different sport it would be like having two strikes on you before arriving at the plate. Good retro rock piece.

It could be another sports metaphor but I don't quite get this reference: I'm.... a two minute drill how can I leave the home crowd with a thrill? Enjoyed my listen.

In football, a two minute drill is when a team is losing in the game, and the quarterback is trying to come from behind to win in the final minutes, or even seconds. They call that a two minute drill even if there is 1 minute left...lol. It's a process The guy in song is wondering if and how he can come out ahead, after being "behind" I like ending songs with a question...thanks for listening, Last edited by Trentb; 03/19/17 05:34 PM.

The overall performance and production are good, too. The vocals need de-essing - the sibilance is marring an otherwise good vocal. Very cool. Peace, TC If it has strings I will find a way to play it! You can hear my tunes at https://soundcloud.com/tc-gypsy
