I recently signed up with Sirius radio and I listen to the 50s station pretty often. This song would fit right in I think. I always like your music, Freddy.

I agree with the comments above.
A couple of things I noticed:
The accompanying instruments are playing the melody part almost note to note with your singing.Seemed to me you were struggling to hit the lower notes? Might try raising the key a step or two.
Very promising song. I think it could really shine with a little more work.

The mix sounds pretty darn good to me, Paul. You have a great voice for the genre and more than that, the passion. It comes across very well.
Really like the guitars! So nice.-Bjorn

One of those videos where the music perfectly matches what you're seeing. Great work!
Had to look up "sakura." Cherry blossoms, which show up at the end.

I really enjoyed listening to this. Great job!
I bet you get a pretty good response when you play this before a live audience. I'd be in the front row!-Bjorn

Thoroughly enjoyed it! Couple of people mentioned the guitar riff and I totally agree. Just four notes (maybe five) and varied a little bit but they added so much to the overall mood.

Thanks Wookie, I appreciate the comment
mark I used the Boulder sound fiddle which I really like. Lots of useful articulations.
Tim, it gets to be a challenge finding just the right video clips at the free video stock websites. I've had to resort to paying for them and they're not cheap!
Thanks Doug, I appreciate the listen and happy new year to you too!
Larry T - Thank you! Appreciate it.
Paul B - Thanks! Appreciate it.
Steve - I was trying for a nostalgic bit of day dreaming and the first thing I thought of was a couple of kids running in a golden field and it surprised me that there are a lot of video clips with just that theme. The kid with the airplane fit in with the dreamy premise too. I ran out of clips so used some of my own that didn't work quite as well.
tom, Thanks again for the comments. Appreciate it.
David, thanks so much for the kind words.

Great lyrics tom! I was down that road myself once, a hard lesson learned.
I really like how you make the lyrics sound like what they mean. Nice job over all.

Mark and et al, just an excellent production all around. Can't think of anything else to say except you guys are good.

"Chill" is right. Really like the mood of the piece, like everything has slowed down as winter takes over and you have to adjust yourself to the season.
The static at the end brought to mind some lonely guy stuck in a cabin trying to tune in a radio to hear a human voice. Well, probably just me thinking that.

I played this one three times back to back and liked it more each time. Just beautiful. I wanted to hear that last note at the end linger a bit longer like Mark said above.

Tim, I'm always impressed by improvisational playing and you did a great job here. The piece fit the holiday just right.

You won't really feel old until that day the sweet young employee at the music store calls you "sir."
Ouch.
Happy Birthday Larry.- 1

Day Dreaming Afternoon
This is a video using a song I wrote a few months ago. I downloaded some video clips from Pixabay and iStock and used some of my own.
This is the 1st time I've uploaded a 4K video. Let me know if you have any problems with it. My laptop stumbled a bit near the beginning but OK after that.
Thanks for watching/commenting.

Just taking notes while listening:
The first 20 sec hooked me. Put me in mind of something Eno might do.
Seemed like the mood changed around 1:20. Bass track is very good. Holds things together well.I like the Mobius strip artwork.

This one caught me by surprise, Doug.
More orchestral than your usual and it works very well. I like it! Well done.
Hope you have a good new year.

I know exactly how you feel, Jerry. I wrote a song a few years ago expressing about the same.
In the daylight you think about those things on an intellectual level but at 3am they're gut level terrifying.All the best to you in the new year.

Wonderful procession of sounds Wookie. Yeah, more soundscape than tuneful, but still captivating.
Modular and CS80 are my fav Arturia vsts. I'm liking Cherry Audio MemoryMood a lot.- 1

I feel like I'm repeating myself here Steve but you really do get the emotion across in your music. Just listening closely I can pick out all the little things in the background that contribute to that emotion coming out. Very well done.

This is the last video of the four Galilean moons of Jupiter. The video was supposed to be about Io, but I got carried away with FX in DaVinci Resolve.

Gary, if you were going for a 40s crooner sound you nailed it. I love your version of White Christmas.
How did you do the backing vocals?Oh and I like the snowmen too.

Sounds great as always, Doug. Really like the guitar solo (is that the Danelectro? - I don't know much about guitars).
