My first collab with Rob. Rob sings this adaptation of the classic fable.

@DullRoar would you mind including the lyrics with your post please? It makes it so much easier to review! I know they were in the video, but those disappear as they scroll past.
I like the "conversation" here between the brass and the guitar.
"Like lemmings on a spending spree with no one keeping track
What puzzles me is who will be the ones to pay it back?"
Lovely lines! And a strong message.
I like this a lot.

@DullRoar enjoyed this song and video very much. Great job you guys did! One of those you listen to and say, dang I wish I wrote that!

A fun take on a serious message. The delivery is spot on, as is the music. Some clever lines. A lot to like :)

OHHHH I do like it!
I wish it to be more pointed and sharp... with some barbs attached.
Good premise... good stuff!

Great track Terry. You have a good collab happening there. Smart lyrics to a quirky arrangement. I'm liking that trem guitar. I enjoyed that.

Crispy, my Derbyshire friend:
I should point out that this collab is from four years ago. Rob & I worked on a lot of different songs since, before he moved on to doing podcasts (linked below). "My first collab with Rob" seems to indicate we are just getting started ,when in fact we are done (for now?). Sorry for the ambiguity, folks.

I had a lot of fun listening to your song!!! Comic but heavy reality!!! The fusion of styles gives to the music an interesting colors, funny and serious while words appear watering the backing. Not usual.

Thanks Mora! I am recycling older songs on this site. I am unlikely to do anything new until the autumn, but I will check in for your newest audio/video masterpieces. Give my regards to Marcus, and you two have a wonderful summer! ❤️❤️
