A discussion across time between a man and his younger self. Influenced by enigmatic Dylan song “A Hard Rain’s Gonna Fall” and musically referencing Bryan Ferry’s interpretation along with a touch of Paul Simon’s “Sound of Silence,” Procol Harum’s “Whiter Shade of Pale,” and Moody Blues’ “Knights in White Satin,” with a dash of the Beatles’ “I was Only Sleeping,” here is a Country style anthem of poetic richness. The use of the term “Pretty” harks back to the 14th definition of "manly, gallant." #countryanthem #countrymusic #complexlyrics #dylan #beatles #proculharum #moodyblues #paulsimon #hardrain #soundofsilence #bryanferry #manly #gall
