Ron Sexsmith: "Get In Line" (2011)

Ron Sexsmith was quoted as saying that it is time more people wrote songs that "actually have a melody." Growing up in Canada, he worked playing covers in bars and found less recptivity to his original work. He has gone on to record 12 albums of material and is acclaimed by Elton John,Dylan, Elvis Costello and many more rock legends. His latest album, "Long Player,Late Bloomer" contains "Get In Line", a tune any of us can identify with. It is indeed melodious and got a lot of play on sattelite radio. He is still touring based on the success of this release.

Heavy clouds all hanging around
And the sun refuses to shine
If you're bent on bringing me back down
Better get in line
