awesome song my friend. i really liked the incorporation of sharps and flats in the composition. most artists these days just use a major scale and that saddens me. Compliments bro. love this jam.
A beautiful performance, a songwriter in his element. Always love your work Tom. All about our frailty and failings -what makes us human and deserving a little compassion. A fantastic song and some soulful singing, I really enjoyed this one. - Karl
@SubstituteForTalent I stopped by your channel earlier. Very cool stuff on there. Anyone reading might want to stop by Sub's channel. Thanks again man.
@1958wvpicker Hey Rich,.....thank you, thank you. I'm doing my best to stay cool, but my daughter says I'm not cool and I'll never be cool again,....hahahaha....what does she know?!?!?!
You don't walk on water and I'm no superman," and "Look into the future and saw an older version of our past." Damn fine lyrics Tom. The delivery on this is superb! It builds up and pulls back..the ebb and flow is really smooth. I think this is probably your best vocal. Effort and dedication..pays off big time. It reminds me of something a wise man told me, "do what you want now..while you can." ;-)
@nessyvt Yeah Theo, I'm believing that myself. I look into the future and see about 10 more effective years if I'm lucky. I don't want it to end. So, I'm doing what I want to do, when I want to do it. And that's that. Hopefully there won't be too much collateral damage,........ahahahahahah
@tomvband there comes a point in life when collateral damage means you're still stirring the pot....and that's better than being a bump on a log..(that has to be the worst mix of metaphors ever!..hope you know what I mean haha!!)
@nessyvt Well, I don't want to be a bump on a log because there's a time for work and a time for play and a stitch in time puts the shoe on the other foot for another day and another dollar. [There, I think that should suffice. You no longer have the worst mix of metaphors ever,,,,,,hahahha]
@nessyvt And Theo,....you are one fine lyricist Pumpkin. The rest will come with your concerted effort. Promise. All you gotta do is be Theo. Can you dig it?
This is just brilliant work Tom...I believe one of your best in a while my friend....the lyrics tear at my gut hard....the melody is real and helps share the song with a passion not heard in everyday music..... I love this tune brother. I will listen to this one a lot....adding it to your playlist....some songs are good and some are great....this is one of the great ones....damn!
@PatrickGMoran Much appreciated Pat. I sure wish I could sing better. Steadily working on that. I always liked this song but couldn't do anything with it that made sense to me. I do think this is pretty close to what it should be. Or at least as close as I'm going to get it. For now anyway. Wouldn't it be nice if everything we wrote was just marvelous? I feel pretty lucky any time one of my songs even gets close to simply being 'ok'........wonder what Justin will have to say,...hahaha.
@onewomanandsomesongs I never really did anything with it back then. I have,...just like I'm sure you do too,....songs laying around that eventually either come into their 'time' or they suffer the match and go up in smoke. I'm cleaning house,.....hahahaha.....Thanks for the stop and the comment and all that ....you know,......I appreciate your friendship.
I just got in the door from a camping trip, and I owe everyone a message from my channel comments, but I just got your share, so I thought I'd pop in and give it a listen. Tom, this is just great. Love your performance here. Sometimes, I can't put into words what I love about your performances and songs, I just know that they move me, and that's what it's all about. You got it goin' on, Bubba. Another one that's going on my favorites list. :) Janet
fines song. One Step closer indeed.
