This song, written with Ron Hirsch Jr, is written about the situation in this modern world where people meet online to find relationships. The singer has been told he should meet the girl in the song because their friends say they are very alike... both have been in bad relationships and its time they had some happiness... He feels she could be happy with a "Guy like" him
We channeled our mutual rolling stones influence musically the way Eric Church did on Desperate Man

Family, protection, big brother.

That epiphany you have when a relationship is deepening - from this moment on, nothing will ever be the same.
Off my new album, "One More Moment"

...it don't mean a thing if it ain't got swing...

I texted my childhood sweetheart on Facebook after 40 years & told her I have loved twice in my life & am with neither woman today. She was my first love & my last love had recently gone away. I texted her "First Love, Last Love" & also told her "First love, Last Love" would be a great song TITLE. I was gonna work on it immediately. I kicked it around in my head for a week & finally picked up the guitar & worked out the HOOK. Originally it was my personal story about 2 loves lost. The early versions were too personal & painful to write. But I tried, & was almost ready to give up on the song as I felt it was just me healing. In fact, the first tag line I wrote originally went "Sometimes baby love AIN'T meant to be". But I didn't want a break up song, or a love lost song. There's enough of those. Instinctively I began to write about how love should be & could be. Plus I thought when someone hears this TITLE they are gonna want it to be about a first love that is also their last love. A love that lasts. I think deep down we all want to believe that. So the TITLE called that out for me to change the direction of the song, & I listened. So I wrote about how I feel love is meant to be. Hopefully I have captured that for others in their search for love as well. I may not be with my "First Love" or for that matter, my "Last Love", but I got a helluva song out of it....

Wrote this a few years back. I wanted to paint in the gray colors of the dust bowl, both visually and thematically. Note that my recording doesn't exactly reflect the lyric (which is more current), specifically I beat on V4 a bit.

The singer answers his lover question as to why she is more special than anyone else he has known

Just having fun on my DAW software with loops. I don't do this often enough. This is just me being creative one night meshing loops together to create one song. I really should try and do it more often and get to know my software better. I was trying to come up with a title so when it was all done I listened to it and imagined it felt like being in a dream world where it moves unexpectedly from one experience to the next. I really enjoy producing these loops songs so maybe one day I'll add some lyrics and vocals.
