Thank you AGP! My obsessive tendencies do lead me into many things full on, this tune is only "part" autobiographical ;) Love the preachin' vermin pic - thanks!

I'll be coming over to the dark side soon enough Richard! :) Those Swamp Witch are sweet looking and sounding tools of the devil ;)

Thank you Nancy! Love the kitty! The guitar plays like I had hoped. ;)

This one was written while strumming but I decided to switch it to fingerpicking, seemed to flow better. The bridge / interlude sounds more dramatic with piano going from a D maj to minor which seems to lose some affect on an acoustic guitar I am learning. Thanks for the super kind comments Uncle J - you made my day!

Hope you don't get any flappers on your back anytime soon, Andries! LOL Probably get in the way of the guitar straps. I dropped the key down a whole step there at the bridge, so I guess that does kind of play into the descending into the darkness at the right time... good points Andries! Thanks for the good conversation, comments and for listening.

"Great performance and song Derek", and I do have to agree with all the previous comments about being a "Full Time Heathen", I personally don't agree with doing things by half, may as well be "Full On"   :-D

Erasmo, I’m not the only troublemaker here! Dog walking has risks Derek, speaking of thorns, AP should hook you up with a witch. Devilish good cookies on the dark side! Imagine Dan Fogelberg or Gordon Lightfoot with a witch.....  yeah...me neither!  Join the force!
