about

Singer/songwriter Garret Vandermolen says: This particular song was SO much fun to put together because it just kind of spilled out. It really celebrates that feeling you get when someone is in your life and just makes it that much better. You get filled with an inexplicable joy and energy that make you feel like you can do anything! I actually did the original demo all on an iphone with Garageband and used their built in synthesizer. The studio recording is almost a verbatim recreation of the demo, except with real instruments and a Yamaha MX49 synth. I think I used a Les Paul Deluxe with mini humbuckers and Dan also used a Gibson, a 335. I also used my ’66 Fender P Bass.

lyrics

She’s got a certain of smile,
The kind that really speaks to me.
Makes my life seem all worthwhile,
Lifts me up and sets me free!

Now I’m strong like Superman,
Since she came into my world.
And her wish is my command,
She’s a very special girl!

I’m the luckiest man in the world,
I’m the luckiest man alive!
Lucky to have a girl like her, right by my side.

I’m the luckiest man in the world,
I’m the luckiest man alive!

So many great songs, so much great playing. Tavern at the End of the World is just one song, this is an album you must listen to and experience all the way through. Rob Moss

Like most songs on the album this song shifts between two distinct modes that work great separately, but when they combine, they become Voltron and are unstoppable! bradykoch
