This song has a bit of a personal backstory.  I remember hearing for the first time when I was an 8 year old that loved to sing...and it's stuck with me ever since.  What makes it even more special is that it is the recording debut of my 17 year old stepson Judah on bass. 

I also only realized recently that Tom Petty (my wife walked down the aisle to "Here Comes My Girl" if that tells you the kind of fans we are) co-wrote the song with Roy and Jeff Lynne during the Traveling Willbury's era.  It was released posthumously on January 3, 1989, after Orbison's death from a heart attack on December 6, 1988.

Thanks y'all!  I'm wrapping up a few new songs I've written to be released this year and practicing for some live shows.   Can't wait to share it all with you!
