Blimey!  Stunning.  You can tap! 


Great song.  A 2.5 minute song that is just epic.

today, I was playing this as my son (19) walked by... "who is this guy?"  he asked.

I said you heard him before.  Ray from Australia...

"Yeah"... that guy sounds like the singer with "A Horse With No Name"....

I didn't hear that... but I do love America... not that song so much but ... geez Ray... you getting comped with Continents... and you deserve it.  ever bit of it...
damn right... but for me... your vocals are great... and really super... but the rest of it are on par...

SUPERSTAR!

Wow - that is some awesome playing - and a vocal melody to die for.
Fab - what a great sound, there is a touch of Jethro Tull about it.

Excellent playing – from the tapping onward. A beautiful production that takes the listener several places. There's a "thinking out loud" aspect to this. I don't mean to say it sounds ad-libbed, but that you start with an experience, a gut reaction, a snap judgement, some further reflection, and end in a different place.

Threw me a disparaging look
She had all the silicone implants
And lips like Donald Duck
She paused for a second with the selfies
And I caught her stupid eye
I said "Your use-by date is almost done,
Soon time to wave goodbye."

Brutal.

I recently spent a couple of days with some "influencers" and reality TV stars who were in Madagascar filming a show about biodiversity. I was prepared to dislike them. They were actually nice people (which surprised me). But seeing their near-manic obsession with producing social content was saddening. Standing in a forest, watching lemurs jumping from tree to tree, they couldn't take their minds off of what they were going to post later that day. I commended one of them, Blake Moynes (479K followers  ;) ), for his genuine ability to take in the moment without reaching for his phone or camera.

And with that, Gritter is a Super Hero - 5000th post! An influencer!
