I'm Still Sending

A parody of I'm Still Standing by Elton John

A defiant comeback anthem from a sender who hit the filters, fixed their SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, and rebuilt reputation through a disciplined IP warmup. The song captures the long road back from blocklist purgatory, proving that proper authentication and patient ramp-up beat any shortcut.

Verse 1
You could never know what it's like
Your mail, like spam, just vanishes from sight
And there's a cold filtering wall at every I.S.P.
And every campaign that you launch gets caught inside the filters' view
And did you think this sender could never win?
Well look at me, I'm warming IPs again
I fixed authentication the proper way
And if you need to know why I'm still sending, you just fade away
Chorus
Don't you know I'm still sending better than I ever did?
Lookin' like a trusted sender, feelin' like a little kid
And I'm still sending after all this time
Pickin' up the pieces of my rep without you on my mind
Post-Chorus
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Verse 2
Once I never thought my mail would win
You're shutting down my sends again and again
The blocks you made were meant to cut me down
But now my sending domain's got reputation all around
You know I'm still sending better than I ever did
Lookin' like a trusted sender, feelin' like a little kid
And I'm still sending after all this time
Pickin' up the pieces of my rep without you on my mind
Post-Chorus
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Chorus
Don't you know that I'm still sending better than I ever did?
Lookin' like a trusted sender, feelin' like a little kid
And I'm still sending after all this time
Pickin' up the pieces of my rep without you on my mind
Post-Chorus
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Outro
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still sending (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
