I like how he reworks the two cliches into something meaningful. And the musical phrasing is classic country goodness.

Yes, "Voices" is definitely a purely country feeling, and it is good. Very Good.

I can relate to this. So many drugs, so many good times. Right, ked? But at the end of the day, all they did was alter our perceptions. Love is what changed us, transformed us. And look at us now!

"Turtles All the Way Down" is probably my favourite of his songs, both for its personal connections--the fun times you mention--and for its accurate appraisal of those psychedelic drugs.
And when I look at us now, I can hardly speak--or write--for the sheer wonderment of it, Sir.
