Wrote this song for my 50th class reunion (Class of 63 - 50 Years). I'm from a little town so the lyrics are a little esoteric. Want to impress them so I want to get the song as best as I possibly can. I hope some of them like rock music as much as me (we're getting up there).
 
I also put the school's song at the very end (that I didn't write). Rocked it up a bit, was a waltz if I remember correctly, and played by the school band. If you get a chance, please give it a listen and any feedback you have to offer is gladly welcomed. Want to iron out any wrinkles that I possibly can. Thanks a lot.

wow! first off: my respect to you for still rocking out - I mean, you must be at the age of my mother, in the sixties! very cool. I liked the song, and your former class mates will surely be impressed by that. I personally had the feeling that the keys were a bit too loud here and there, sometimes they are buriing your voice, so I would lower them a bit. Just my personal thoughts! Apart from that: never too old to rock! I tip my hat.

This is a great rocker Chas!

The lyrics are obviously special to you, which makes them really interesting to listen to.

Nice job.


Steve

speedtom, thanks for the listen and for your comments. Still love music in my 60s (close to 70). Rock is my first love but I love all music.

Steve, thanks a lot. Glad you liked it. 

this is a killer... love it... I hope they appreciate you, and this very cool tribute... Outstanding work...

My band recently played for my 40th high school reunion, and I had a ball... It was a pretty wild party for a bunch of old farts... I'm glad my wife didn't go... I got to flirt with a few ol' girlfriends... a couple of them tried to have their way with me...   You should have a big time...

Chas, you wrote a brilliant song for your class reunion.  Are you considering making a video of this?  My 50th is coming up in a few years, so I may try this myself.  It's always a pleasure to hear your music and productions.  Congrats!

Nat, thanks a lot. Glad you liked the song. The first reunion of mine that I went to was the 40th. Enjoyed it a lot. Have reunited with old classmates since then, even more so than I did during high school. Hope your wife doesn't read this forum. 

Thanks a lot, Lynn. Glad you liked the song. Yes, will do a video of this and will include a lot of my old classmates in it. Trying to work in some funny routines and will play the video at some point during the reunion. Good luck if you decide to do a song for your 50th. Nice to know there are other old geezers on this forum besides myself.    

Particularly love the ending section, a nice twist of songwriting, and all in all a great song, rock on !

This was a great listen! It was very well put together with some cool changes.
