Appreciate you coming back by my page yesterday, Mack. You're most welcome for the comments. I really enjoyed the song. Will be listening to more!
Hope you're having a great week.
Take care & keep in touch.

Hi Mack,
I had to listen closely to hear the organ around "you say". It could be the speakers at work, but I could barely hear it and thought, during the first listening, that it was all guitar. So, you may need to push up the organ a bit.
Cheers,
Sara
