Dear Brother

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2caT4q4Nbs
Walking the roads of our youth
Through the land of our childhood, our home, and our truth
Be near me, guide me, always stay beside me
So I can be free
Free
Let’s roam this place, familiar and vast
Our playground of green frames our past
We were wanderers
Never lost
Always home
When every place was fenceless
And time was endless
Our ways were always the same
Calm my demons and walk with me, my brother
Until our roads lead us away from each other
And if your heart’s full of sorrow, keep walking
Don’t rest
And promise me from heart to chest to never let your memories die
Never
I will always be alive and by your side
In your mind
I’m free

This would be poetic and moving - in the absence of a whisky ad. Heightened emotions make us much more susceptible to an advertising (or any other) message - as ad agencies well know - and I don't like the manipulation.

Yeah, that's a problem.
