GC songwriter contest

If you paid attention to my posts a few weeks ago, you may already have heard this song on my BM player.
I actually started writing this song almost 20 years ago for a contest that WBCN (I think) was having at the time. But with no way to record it (and they wanted a lead sheet, too), I never completed it. Fast forward to earlier this year, the Boston Marathon bombing inspired me to dust off the song and complete it.
Please go to this GC contest page and view it there (repeated viewings would be appreciated!): http://songwriter.revimage.com/channels/MikeBirchMusic and share it with friends, too!

Well I've played it twice... so what do I win? :P :P
The vids a bit out of sync in some spots. I like the tune though... too bad you couldn't have gotten the real sax on it.
Good luck on it Mike.

Yeah, the outside scenes were videoed by my wife (shakey hands) with no soundtrack to listen to and a lot of wind.
Never found a sax player to volunteer, although I had contacted a couple, guess no one wanted to do free work.

Thanks for watching the video! You want a prize? Send me your mailing address (mikebirchmusic AT yahoo DOT com) and I'll mail a CD to you!
