This is a co-write with Mark Monument, his words [with only light massaging from me] and my music. I recorded this with my iPhone for the sake of posterity. Any lags in the delivery are due to me scrolling lyrics while playing.

Written in recognition of the Songwriting For Nature program www.songs4nature.ca and their influence on me as a songwriter. They welcome writers of the world to bask in the wonder of the Canadian prairies of Saskatchewan. Next camp is 12-SEP-2019

I wrote this based on a Facebook conversation between two music friends and when one of them lamented the state of the music industry, the other replied, "I would have told you had I known you..." The first replied, "We met in the quicksand..."

It's a song about how some one can be good even world class at something but lacking in the most important ways.

so my new buddy Daniel Mann and I got together and did a re-write/co-write of his song "rearview", this is what we came up with.

OK, Funny story, This is a song I just put together. It is from a poem by Maureen McDole that had a challenge/contest that it be put to music. Problem is, the contest was three years ago. It pays to read the fine print.

I just wanted to write a song the way I wanted it to be sung to me lol

Enjoy writing country songs
