Casey, maybe she will pay to keep us all from sending our music.

Quote:"First time I heard "In America" I was struck by all your symbolism in and imagery in that song....'their blood is in the soil and in this heart of mine' is just a GREAT line. I don't tell you that I like "In America" just to be nice....it is a KILLER song. Whether you are conservative, liberal or moderate, In America is so well written.... it strikes a chord with everyone....heck, hehe, Lee Greenwood's "I'm Proud To Be An American" doesn't even compare."Nice compliment. I blush!! Gotta give Chits the "Thank you"'s. She gave me sumthin' I could use to fish with, maybe reel a few more folks in. Well, Walt, I'm glad I could help....I really meant every word of this too...."In America" is a GREAT song.....I believe it would appeal to everyone. I admire good use of imagery, and you got that down pat. You could use my quotes on a website where your song is being pitched, hehe.....but I'm not a famous songwriter, so no one would probably care.....now, if I was Jason Blume or something. Sorry I didn't see this thread sooner.....my presence on the boards is more sporadic these days, but I still try to keep up with y'all. Glad you made your first profits on your song....remember, it's only the beginning! I'm also glad that lady wants to perform the song in her church.....when you get people wanting to sing your song like that, of course, others will follow....that song is going to be placed one day....no doubt about it.

Ditto the positive feedback! Love this song!I understand that the performance isn't you... who cares!? Most of us aren't going to be the recording artist the song winds up with anyway. Nice that you could get such talent to showcase the song so well for you, but the bottom line for me is that it's a very well crafted song. Captivating melody. Beautiful lyrical imagery. Very nice, sir.
