Yeah, very nice tune for your daughter's wedding. I was reading the poem without the music and wondering how I would have fit the words in a song. Did you write the melodic part for the singer or did she improvise it? -Bjorn

Somehow I survived the wookie-rays. Really like the vocal treatment. It has just the right touch for that spacey narrator sound. Loved the guitar strums, bass and synth bit up to 1:16 and kinda wanted that to develop more. 2:20 cool little xylophone (?) pattern. 👍

It's a frame from a public domain cartoon that I downloaded from Prelinger Archives. So should be okay...I hope.

Love the "grim reaper will have to wait" You sure fit a lot of 5 syllable words in there! Really like the guitar solo - so bluesy.

I listened to a few of the tracks and I'm thinking wow such great songwriting skills and the voice to go with it. You've got talent for sure.

No suggestions, just sitting here getting into it. So nice.

I like the panning percussion at the beginning and then later on, tying things together. Lots of evolving phrases, the ones at 1:15 and 3:40 surprised me a bit - not sure what I mean by that. And yeah, the guitar is amazing. Really enjoyed listening to this one.

Beatle-esque Absolutely love the "I'm Mr Quarantine..." ditty. It's been stuck in my head all day. Daryl's vocal could maybe come up just a bit if I had to comment on anything. Well done, gents.

Gary, Mark, Mr Symmetry Thanks for commenting. This was another song where I randomly choose a synth and preset and try to make it work.

Just The Way It Is Playing around with my synths. Used a lot of Arturia Pigments in this one. Thanks for listening/comments.

Books I decided to take this one down. The lyrics didn't work to make the point I was trying to make. Thanks to people who took the time to comment

Your lyrics made me laugh out loud esp the very good Catholic girl bit I appreciate how clear your lyrics are. The words go by fast, but I understand them.

Very nice! Intricate and a variety of sounds going on in there. Really like it. The synth at 3:40 is pretty darn cool. I was actually getting into the mood for an electronic piece during the intro. Don't think I've heard anything like that from you(?)

I'm not familiar with this song or any Christian music really but I do listen to it now and then, And what I like about Christian music is that it seems to have more memorable melody to it than most genres today. So I liked this song quite a lot esp the female vocalist.

Nice assortment of patterns you've put together with your new toy!

Great mix esp the vocal which really stands out well. I think I figured out which part you wrote and which was your brother's. He did a nice job on that main hook.

An assortment of pleasing sounds esp the female ooohs and aaaahs and the whistle-y synth. What David and Daryl said above. Maybe some more sections in a minor key?

Probably won't help you but there are websites that sell sampled patches of old synths in NKI or SF2 formats. I've seen them on eBay so I suppose they're legit. amazound.com is one example.

So smooth. Puts me in a nice mellow mood.

Older Geeks.com has a lot of utility and other software. They claim no ads, all free and no crapware all of which I've found to be true. Might be helpful for someone here. https://www.oldergeeks.com/index.html

I should have mentioned that I'm listening with AudioTechnica M50 headphones. - Björn (I'm Swedish 😁)

Anders does reggae. Damn good song and performance. Really like your voice. I had trouble hearing the lyrics though because the voc doesn't stand out enough. Great job. -Bjorn

A+ Freddy. The guitars sound just like they're supposed to - I like them. How's that for a professional critique? I've voted in a lot of elections and never worried if the results didn't come out the way I wanted. This one is different.

#12 Cool groove on that one, Jesse. Gettin' better every day.

Jesse, thanks for taking the time from your schedule to comment. A song a day for a month? Wow. Jim, thanks for the comment on the guitar note release which I hadn't noticed. I do appreciate it.
