Okay Don, you asked for it. It's AWFUL!....awful that cookie-cutter songs written by those two guys that write 80% of all the commercial tunes, get thousands of hours of airplay while good solid, creative, and yes, commercially viable, tunes such as the one you just presented here, never (or rarely) see the light of day commercially. Just doesn't seem fair. I can imagine the frustration of people like Dave Rice trying to break into that elite little circle. Seems like the quality of the product has little to do with it's chance for (commercial) success. Sad.

You scared me there for a minute Chas, but I was ready to take it!

I totally agree with you. Although there are lots of good songs being written, it's sad that not many make it commercially.
Over the years, I've even had some "connections", but apparently not the RIGHT connections.
I do appreciate the nice things you said about the song though. Thank you my friend!
