Not totally fair, there are plenty of small Managers and Distributers who really try hard to be good to their employers, it's only the big companies and the people who try to imitate the big companies who think of artists as chattel to own and exploit.

the song is the anthem for all musicians who attempt to raise their voice and break the silence- nice melody- musically the song is simple, clean, and easy to remember. That's what makes a song great: memorability. This one has it. Get in Line.

Yay for Ron. Way to go, big man. This is quite possibly the finest pop song EVER!! It's so simple & so perfect you wonder why no-one has written it before now. This has to be my favourite version of the song. Ron Sexsmith - you deserve every success that comes your way.

What a voice that guy has, holy geeeze, I'll try to hit most of the notes for you." Ron just has the lovely ability of conflating affability, melody, and nostalgia into songs that are meaningful and memorable. And also notice how he never plays an electric guitar live. Imagine how many how many high quality cuts he's penned with his sturdy acoustic guitar

What a beautiful sense of melody Sexsmith has. As this was a songwriters circle, Sexsmith shared the stage with two other others. and somewhat ruefully he said, “I’m the only one up here who hasn’t had a hit.”

Unfortunately for Ron, media idiots didn’t promote him. He is directly one of the reasons I no longer listen to the radio. Social media has also killed new music., or at least the choice of music. For example, first part of the Lego movie is really a horror movie. Sad thing is even adults who watched it when it was first released will still not get it. Everything is awesome 😂

Reminds me of songs from the 50's - 'story songs' that is...he did it well and in front of a tough audience = song-writers. He did it well. Graham has been song-writing since the 1960's - he spent time working for a famous NYC song-writing house in the late 60's and it was grueling work...he has paid his dues.
