Mac,
No wonder it sucks!
Just kidding. Cool that you can come up with something this good so fast. sometimes those can be the best songs. I just recorded one that only took me 6 weeks! (a personal best for me)
Another solid tune with some good transitions and instrumentation. I like how the chorus rises at the end of it. Makes is stick.
Great effort and congrats on getting it done!
Ricky

Cool riff, everything is so clean, punchy. Bringing the two step strut back.
are you using a tele? The solo sounds a bit Tom Petty's solo in breakdown.

Those "someone else" lines are awesome! What a great kick to the song! I think sometimes they come to you in a wave and sometimes they are like digging for gold, but this was just a wave of inspiration, great lyric, melody, vocal and production!

Robert,
I am using a tele, some days it's all tele...some days it's humbucker, I think it happened to be all tele on this one because I flew through it so fast that I didn't stop to change guitars.....thanks for the spin.

Hi Mac:
Funny how a song can sometimes simply fall together. This one is the "whole nine yards" my friend. Well done.

Hi Mac. Very nice economical use of lyric here. Good arrangement too. Maybe back off the band a little during the vocal though.
Good work. Vic
