The sound is a bit tinny because it was transferred to tape a couple times and finally to MP3 over te course of like 10 years.

Well, I don't, but you have a talent for that! Loved your song! I love music, but have never been able to write a song. I'v tried but I sit down at my keyboard and other (already written) songs sneak into my head....LOL I'm going to pass this on to my daughter, who has already written several songs.
