the fact that this song was not included in the score of Spielberg's Lincoln is most likely the reason it did not win the Oscar

What a great song! Molly, you are a fraggin' genius. I know you are too modest to think of yourself in those terms, but you have created an amazing work of art here. To take the assassination of Lincoln and to view it from three unique perspectives in quite an achievement. 5 stars, my friend.

Sic Semper Tyrannis - the state motto of Virginia, it means "thus always to tyrants." It's what John Wilkes Booth shouted when he leapt from Lincoln's box to the stage (in the process injuring his leg).

Wonderful use of historic detail in this song! I like the 3 points of view. Ingenious. My Howard Hughes song which I have placed in the video response area attempts to be so authentic it might be mistaken for having actually happened.

I downloaded from Song Fu a while back, then my friend came to school with the same song on her iPod and was said she just found this cool song that I had to listen to. It didn't strike me at first, then I came home and listened nonstop because we were trying to figure what it was about... once we figured it out, I was like, "Hey! This is actually kind of awesome!" Signed, your interweb groupies.

Wow. That song was brilliant and complex and Booth's voice was a nice touch. The inclusion of the "Blushing Beauty" was most interesting and quite fun. A waltz on the ukulele is one thing I have never before heard and hope to in future, and your lyrics never fail to thrill. You're my favorite KZitem musician for sure, and possibly my favorite songwriter. I like the songs, but it's nice to know that these songs come from such a nice, intelligent young lady. Btw, Molly, good luck.
