Here's the difference between Ralph Covert and other songwriters:
Others songwriters write a song about being in love.
Covert writes a song about a guy named Bill who, in July of 1973, falls in love with a girl named Mary, but because he's about to move overseas, is torn between his love for her and his other comittments.
It's the specificity of the lyrics that move me so.
