I have the original of this on my ipod - the more you hear it the better it gets. Great relaxed feel and the live drums make it even more natural sounding. Lovely song. Cheers Len |

great song i like your acoustic stuff a lot. i can hear the Beck "one foot in the grave" blues feel to it, but that's never a bad thing. just means you meant it. |

Double I like the live drums. Great addition. Blue vocals, and slow beat set sad tone. Nice guitar leads too! Only, I wanted a crack at being the double fan. How is that done? Thanks Bill |

Dark stuff That "dobro" is very effective and drives the song. I like the organic feel about this and how it seems to grow and build naturally. Tough lyrics. I wish we didn't need songs like this :-( Cheers Dick |

Too kind ... seriously Thanks to everyone who has said nice things about the drummy bits here. Still, I can't help but feel that I shortchanged ya, bud. I think it was July or so that I kinda ducked out of MacJams because I lost any semblance of spare time. This was one of the last songs that I worked on. As such, there are a lot of sloppy drum parts that really should have been punched. I gave you "first take quality" for your final take ... not great, coming from a guy who needs a couple takes. I realize the feel is supposed to be jangly and loose, but listening back, there are some drum things I did that just drive me bonkers. Mostly some stuff that is so far behind the beat it might as well be ahead of the NEXT beat. Ugh. C'est la vie, I guess. Thanks for letting me sit in and for sharing the remix on MJ. |

Thanks To all who commented on the lyrics and to Bud who makes them come alive. I'm looking forward to writing a "war is over" song one of these days. May be if we all write one it will happen. |

More Alive Than Live You guys really did pull off a brilliant live performance kinda feel (as the other brothers from another planet mentioned). I am so impressed. I knew Mikey 100 years (or less) before all of you and I think he's been over looked for way too long. I wish he'd fix my drums on every song I ever played (and sang too). Good job Mikey vs robot. I'm thrilled to death to hear you beating away to such a killer tune. Drunken guitar is the perfect description of this colorful and fantastic guitar sound. The vocals and the lyrics make this song unforgetable. You changed my world, guys. Thanks for another download. Bob |
You know this has the way of a a live band. The drums fit very nicely.
The ending really builds up the intensity of the song as well.
I just noticed Steve's remark about Beck. That's pretty dead on.
