Yep--shades of Forrest Gump's famous line here for sure!

I like the imagery, and the happy/sad works for me. I like the Spanish/classical-sounding guitar. (Am I naming it right?) "Smacks between the eyes" is the only image that isn't working for me, because that reminds me of shampoo in my eye. I'm rarely that off-target when I eat chocolate...LOL...takes a major accident to waste the stuff in my EYE.

But I'm just too literal a thinker sometimes, so take me with a grain of salt. [Linked Image] Life DOES "smack you 'tween the eyes."

Thanks for the fun listen. I thoroughly enjoyed the book "Like Water for Chocolate," set in Mexico, and this song with the guitar accomp. reminded me of it. (They've already made the movie... and the movie did NOT do the book any justice)

The song would be great in the right film. My friend Annette runs the Utah Chocolate Show; I don't know if it would be useful there, but I could send her the link, if you want. The show runs in November.

Anyway...for what it's worth!
