Thank you, Everyone, for listening and for your comments.  :)  I was thrilled to have this one brought to life. Ken and Drumbum did an excellent job with a distressing topic.

Ken, don't you dare doubt your vocal skills!  I'd heard you sing on other songs (plus on the initial demo), and knew you'd do a great job.   ;)

Your vocals add a kind of frenzied freshness and rawness that complement the story.  In all other respects, listen to your wife of course, but not when it's about your singing.   ;) :D

(I really like that change-up into the chorus as well.  ;) )

I had to download the original post and amplify it in audacity so I could make it out properly. I need all the volume I can get.

The song.. Powerful sentiment, and excellent material for a song. Ken you really did a bang up job with your parts on this, the vocal delivery was fantastic to my ears. Drumbum, you never fail to lay down great tracks.

Great lyrics Donna.

Thanks, folks.  :)  Ken and DB, a couple of kudos have trickled in from elsewhere.  ;)

-------------------
When I first read the great lyric, I was hearing a 'dark' vibe music to it, something like PODs "Youth of The Nation".
But I must say that the rock'n'roll-esque arrangement works well - the sombre theme sung with a cheerful 'fixed' grin feeling provides an unexpected twist and a strong contrast. Something which the Who have done quite often.
Good performances too - high on energy and sincerity. Well done all!  Andy

Well done! Some things need to be said.  Paul

Nice tune! I like your lyrics, Donna. Like Andy, I thought the music would have a darker feel, but the arrangement here is splendid. Well done.  Roger
