Success

By Sandy Lender

 

The seven of them dubbed Success a “ragged tiger”

and harnessed it for decades

through multiple iterations of the band

Using any and all forms of media

to push a quality product is smart promotion

Musicians and marketers ahead of their time

Still reaping the rewards of groovin’ bass lines

beneath movies made-in-paradise

with lyrics that make you cry when you listen right

“Ten thousand screaming fans can’t be wrong”

And watch out when those fans grow up

to become journalists

and teachers

and social media influencers

with a built-in distrust for hoity toity music critics
