Re: Am I supposed to hate "Run While We Can?"

I like the vibe of it though the verse lines (melodically and lyrically) need a lot of tightening up. I actually like the chorus quite a bit. I also happen to HATE Boyd on the mandolin. But I can hear a part in my head that would be played on an electric guitar that sits in the same kind of space with the basic melodic idea working really well. I can even hear a simple part for Boyd on the violin that would add a lot more than his awkward mandolin tone. The bridge sucks and needs a total overhaul. It sounds like dialed-in garbage typical of what he was coming up with then for bridges and chorus's. I think this song has a lot of potential as an idea but as is it's lacking in many areas. I wish I could produce them.......
