Description
A song I wrote and posted back in 2006 in honor of our troops.
In this version, I have some help from other macjammers, some whom are no longer here... I procrastinated on remixing it, thinking I would sing my vocal part again, then ditched the effort. 3 years later, I decided to just mix it with what I have. Mike probably wonders what happened...
Special thanks to these folks:
Mike Watkins (kevmikwa) on drums
Steen (no longer here) on bass
Jennifer Bud (http://www.macjams.com/artist/e46) on main vocals
John (TEXASFEEL) on some lead guitar
I'm singing and playing my DiGiorgio nylon; I deliberately left my vocals a little back, because they are weak and I wanted Jen's vocals to stand out.
The mix is so-so, sounds better with headphones than the cheezy laptop speakers. Please give me some feedback
Hope you enjoy it, it's a pretty long song at about 5:30

Lyrics
Flyin’ High
Sitting on a sofa, with two or more of you
Ain’t got nothin’, nothin’ else to do
Leaving you alone, I know was my mistake.
Just now looking back, a thought I just can’t take
I’m flyin’ high
Flyin’ so high,
I’m flyin’ high
Flyin’ so high…
If we should go there, there’s some of us to choose
Ain’t got no one, I’ve got no friends to lose
You’ll give it all for me, and give it all you’ve got.
And pay a sacrifice, by those who cast the lot
I’m flyin’ high
Flyin’ so high,
I’m flyin’ high
Flyin’ so high…
Sitting on a sofa, with one or more of you
Ain’t got no one there, ain’t no one else to choose
Leaving you alone, I know it's my mistake.
No more looking back, it’s time to meet my fate
I’m flyin’ high
Flyin’ so high,
I’m flyin’ high
Flyin’ so high…
Now let’s go there, there’s some of us who choose
We ain’t got no one, just me and you, and you
I’ll give it all for you, I’ll give you all I’ve got.
We’ll give in sacrifice, for those who mean a lot.
I’m flyin’ high
Flyin’ so high,
I’m flyin’ high
Flyin’ so high…

I'm listening on headphones so the mix sounds alright. I like the voice harmonies in the chorus. Nice solo in the middle too. Jenn has a great voice for the song's mood.
