Hi Tina...
Very professional recording. Interesting lyrical story. The most hooky line for this song is "Lessons learned" "The Box" describes the theme, "Lessons learned" is what stays with me.
Just a thought.

Tina,
Very nice song..I love the theme. Brought back memories of my own youth and the old guy that lived next door who kinda adopted me and my brother teaching us to jump trains, cut goldenrod for the worms to go fishing. He had a box that he told us he kept hugs and kisses in even though the only things we saw was a large skeleton key...Oh! He told us it's the key to his wifes heart and since she had passed...well, you know the story.
The Box is a truly wonderful song..I loved it. Thanks for sharing...BOB

Nice song and very well done production.
I like songs that make the listener think. Trick is to make the message easy to figure out. You have succeeded.
Thanks for sharing this one.
