"Country Songs Don't Have Happy Endings" - my new song [vanity, vanity, all is vanity]

| Me, as "Hopalong Ginsberg"

OK folks, I've got a new song out. This is also a country song, but not a humorous one. (Not intentionally, anyway.) Once again, I'd appreciate it if you'd give it a listen and an honest opinion, preferably in that order. The waaaaahmbulance is standing by.
A few quick notes:
1) I did indeed record the song as "Hopalong Ginsberg." No, that is not an autocorrected spelling of "Slings and Arrows."
2) Yes, I know what my voice sounds like, so let's get this out of the way:
3) If you like the song, or even if you just want to inflict it on an enemy, you can download the MP3 for free here. Or here. But not here.
4) To justify pinging my kitty ping list:

I’m game; GeronL knows. We’re working it out.

Thank you very much! I’m not familiar with Iron and Wine, but slow, soft, and sad is exactly what I was going for.

My college experience was crashing frat parties and hitting the clubs.
I used to flip HP switches for a living. ;-)
I did all my series bar exams in oriental bars with good rock n roll bands, usually Filipino. :-]

Hey, good stuff ... I admire your courage.
Not to fear -- as long as the Bob Dylan Christmas album exists you don't have to be concerned with your vocals. (If you haven't heard that album ... DON'T!!) ... you'll never sing "right" again.
Seriously, nice work, S&A.

Thank you very much. I considered going the William Shatner route, but didn’t want to call up what I couldn’t put back down.

Oooh, I've got a GREAT comeback ready for these situations! How dare you assault my semi amateur staus!
To: Slings and Arrows
I’m not a knowledgeable critic, but I like your voice very much, Slings.
And you can’t beat that name. Please put me on Hopalong’s ping list.

Well, I’m out on the ledge with a cyanide pill between my teeth.
Was that what you were going for?

P. S. A waitress at my favorite Waffle House called sad country songs “music to slit your wrists to.” Nice to see that I got it right.
