This song has all three!  The songwriter pairs women and fishing.  I&#8217;m sure the fish don&#8217;t mind, but the women?  Well?  The old adage, &#8220;It&#8217;s easier to ask forgiveness than permission&#8221; is a great chorus lyric. I love the way he opens up with the bass fishing hole and goes on to relationships.  The fishing license and the marriage license are a clever tie-in.  This is a piece of excellent lyric writing.  Made me smile!<\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>The vocal (sorry to be critical) seemed a bit off to me.  Could be it&#8217;s just your style and way of singing.  So please forgive me if that&#8217;s so.  There also seemed to be some timing issues.  But all in all, I am convinced that this is an excellent song.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Sam CooperSong: FORGIVENESSReviewer: Kate CarpenterPositive Comments: To write a good country song, you need a bit of humor, a believable story and a good metaphor.
