A Pop Rock song with plenty of guitar interest and pleasant vocal harmonies.

Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
A song that came to me almost fully formed. It needed only a little nudging in the right direction to be where it is now.
Lyrics
The Strangest Thing (living In A World without LOVE) guitar intro: Words are so hard to find, they're often vague and ill defined. Time travellers hiding in plain sight, or under cover of the night. you're the girl of my dreams, but nothing's ever how it seems. We're stranded in this time and space, (time and space) where I look, I see your face. (see your face) can't you give me a call ? without your love, I'm nothing at all. (nothing at all) Looking into the sun, I'm tired but my work is done. Waiting for the wind to blow, easy now, there she goes. you're the girl of my dreams, but nothing's ever how it seems. You keep me waiting by the phone, (by the phone) I don't like this, 'being alone' (been alone) waiting for the phone to ring, Part-time love's, the strangest thing. (the strangest thing). guitar solo: Falling through a hole in the sky, it's like looking through an elephant's eye. you're the girl of my dreams, but nothing's ever how it seems. We're stranded in this time and space, (time and space) where I look, I see your face. (see your face) You never returned by call. without your love, I'm nothing at all. (nothing at all) guitar solo: Living in a world without love, we're living in a world without love ad-lib vocals to fade-out

Lots of jangling guitar and I like the bass and this song came quickly seems like the best ones do that. Very good work. Enjoyed.

Excellent tune, David! Great melody and superb vocals - those harmonies are so good. Great guitars as per - that Parker Fly sounds a fascinating beast.

You definitely have a signature sound when you're doing retro styled songs. Very catchy tune, great guitar work and I love those backing vox, they really lift the song. Excellent stuff!

What a great 60s vibe song ! You really know how to create the 60s ! Love the guitar and bass and overall production vibe . The vocals are perfect for this . If this was back in the 60 s as with all your 60 s vibe songs I truly believe you would be high in the proper radio charts . They are that authentic . Brilliant work David !
