V1 and V2 are out of the park Scott. V3 is a bit of a head scratcher and and V4 is OK albeit on the predictable side.
This Could be a classic IMO.
I love the harp on this. Very solid playing. The musical presentation is good. Nice. A simple presentation that is really effective.
I hope you have another go at v3 and v4 lyrically. If you could end with something as fantastic as your beginning, you really will have a classic IMO.
Peace,
Ian
Funny how things work out, Ian - Verses 3 and 4 were done first and are my favorites  Maybe a couple of disclaimers though - I might like V3 because of it's skewed viewpoint. I'm probably patting myself on the back for being clever when something more conventional would work better. Yeah, might not want a head-scratcher there. I gotta keep V4 though - that was the whole point to the song - which is kind of a looney Valentine's Day gift. I couldn't come up with any better ideas - you tend to use your good ones in the first 10 years or so. Even V1 and V2 seem a little "out there" to me to be considered classic. Might be cooler to talk about things that are more ordinary on the surface - but I went that direction so as to try to provide a strong counter-point to V4. Perhaps I am overthinking Appreciate the comments, as always, Ian. Scott
