I Got This Thing - how it affects your significant other

[deantaylor]

....
I just finished a new song called "I GOT THIS THING" about how my wife and I have dealt with my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Lyme Disease for the past 17 years. It's about how any 'condition' you might have also affects your spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend or significant other. I thought maybe people here would like to hear it.

PS I started writing this about 7 years ago. It has taken me that long to finish it. Thanks to Doug Campbell for the co-write and production and to Storme who sings the heck out of it. They are great!

Hey Dean...First...sorry about your CFS....my hat's off to your wife....if she's everything you say she is in the song, you've got a real winner in a life partner....great sentiment in the lyrics and I think commercial enough to work in a lot of things....here's hoping it pays off for something nice for her...

Thanks Tom.
Yes, my wife is great!

One of my all time favorites!
When I first listened to this, I wasn't thinking about the "thing" being CFS... putting it together is really moving.
Well done!

Thanks Marc. Yeah, that was the idea to make it general, so 'this thing' could be lotsa things. But in my own mind it was CFS.

Wow, great song! Beautifully written, I could see you really put a lot into getting those lyrics and melodies just right. Wonderfully done in every way!

Thanks for being so open to sharing what you're going through. We all got something...

Amen! This is exactly what Doug and I were thinking about this song .. it really applies to EVERYONE .. just insert your THING and it's about you.
