this is so cool-love the tempo shifts-and the message is great. :)

This has gotta' be the most fun song I've heard so far in 2021. Intelligent lyrics but so joyful and playful. Not to mention the guitar is warm but precise, and your voice is friendly but also knowing.

My problem all year is that I keep on making complete three hundred and sixties.

I like the dynamic of the slower verses, and the more upbeat chorus.

This is a really clever and fun tune, Claes. I'm a fan of the tempo changes. Gotta try this sometime.

Love the harmonics notes ( My mother in law must have heard this Claes. She just bought a lab!! 

Cool song Claes.  I really like the changeup in the chorus

Song-A-Week 2021 week 4 contribution.

Don't sit around
nursing that slow gin, it's slowing down everything
Don't sit around
starring at the screen, it's just a hole to fall in
II: Don't sit around
but help yourself to what the world has got to offer
Don't sit around
waiting for the world to come to you, here's what you do:

Cross the floor, walk out the door, hail a cab, buy a black Lab
Take her for a walk, have a little talk with your friends and neighbors
Hit the gym (muscles kicking in), run a good mile or dance without style
Bike that trail, spot a whale, take a boat out for a sail

It's all there for the taking
just help yourself, and you'll be making
a complete one-hundred-and-eighty

Don't sit around
with your head in the past, the past doesn't last
Don't sit around
worrying 'bout what's ahead, tomorrow you might be dead, so :II
