Dear lord Ken, your vocal is out-of-site here.  Great energy, thats some hard singing, I love it.  I really love the yell you do after the line "For the senseless tragedy", had me laughing and yelling along with you.  I think it sounds great, sure you could get a more polished singer to smooth this one down, but it wouldn't have the raw nervous energy that this has.  You own this song man, I can't hear anybody else singing this now.  You got inside it and spat it back out at us, thats the way to do it.  What did your family think when you were laying the vocals down, a little worried?  This song is becoming a monster, damn, real drums will really take it to the moon.  That last long yell at the end, thats the deal, shivers from that.  You made this story real for me with this vocal.

lol ! BB I recorded this when they were gone! If i'd shouted like that when they were home I would have had books thrown at me!  lol

When I recorded back vocals on "married to my Pickup" with Tony, my wife and daughter were watching t.v. in the same room,I was getting eyes raised to the ceiling, looks of irritation, etc. lol

Donna, apoligies for taking liberties with the lyrics, but as usual, my music never quite works out as I plan, and things have to stretch and bend to make it work!
At least we have an idea of where we can take this now.

No worries, Ken.  ;)  It seems you simply rearranged the structure a little and shortened the first two choruses (4 lines instead of 8 ), then left the 8 lines for the third chorus. That works fine. I'll adjust the lyric format to reflect the vocals so that everything matches when the song's ready for Original Works.  ;)
