Is it about taking away our guns? or Confederate flag? or about doing what the government wants to do whether the people like it or not. I scribbled down some quick lyrics and did what might be considered a protest song. But it can also be interpreted humorous too. soundcloud.com/theirishtexan/im-not-so-really-sorry

Stan, this is fantastic. We need more protest songs, and this is a great one. Recording-wise, it's superb as is. I love the strange sounds in the background during the choruses. The feel in the verses perfectly matches the lyrics. I think there's a lot of humour in this, but like many other good songs, it's wrapped around a small nugget of truth. I can't help but think it's somewhat like a political version of my own It's Not Fine. I think there are more than a few similarities. But either way, kudos to you.

Thanks Mike for the kind words. With political spats clogging our nation's news channels, I've about had it. I'm going to post it to the public and see what happens but was hesitant to do it at all.

Stan, you're an artist; you shouldn't be afraid to release things that might offend someone. It might also make someone think, or spark a discussion, or encourage anyone who might privately agree with you to be less hesitant to speak out.

I thought it was rather sloppy and the bass part is almost embarrassing to listen to. I wasn't really thinking as much about the lyrics because I tend to agree with most of them to some degree.. Thanks Mike, and for your encouragement. I would like to start writing more. It's been well over a year.
