I'll echo all of the above.

What's your overall level on the mix, seems a bit light, had to turn it up quite a bit...
Not that that's a bad thing...

Yeah Hi t , Ive left myself a bit of headroom on this one before I master, this is the first time I`ve managed to do this as usually I push it all to the max leaving nowhere to go later on so i´m really experimenting with this one , the drums are all seperate, and many tracks  are using  lots of busses giving me easyer  control at the mix stage ....well thats the idea anyway ..or failing that I`ll just have a few beers and push record ......cheers P

Hi chaps well this ones been on the back burner for some time , so I made some (many)changes and heres what came out , itS  another  rant about , politics and media etc all comments are welcome cheers P.. .......the end will faded out at some stage....

 

Hi this one flew under the radar , another good song  from you,  really liked the percussion ,  cant fault it in any way  good stuff cheers P

Oh yes Liked this very much great melody , wasnt too keen on the fill guitar percussion did the trick  , great vocals top song ...

Hi Tim, yes there are certanly a few  phrases that woukld work better if the played the same melody  lots in there to choose from lots of potential

Great acoustic guitar tone , i never achieve that , it all pops out at you , yeah i liked this very nuch cheers

Hi whoisp Yes it just got better and better as the song continued,  really kept the listener interested , like a good cold beer right to the very last drop , really liked the vocals , yep great stuff this one  cheers

sounded fun to me loved all the instuments ,

Hi Allan I Just love your meandering melodies , and thats the hard part there´s always a surprise in store...... nice one 

I´m always jealous of these bloody clear sounding recordings mine in comparison are all muddy and muddled ..a bit like my brain ....good song

I hate to sound boring but Its just another great track , always faultless playing and production  ..now can you please post a crap song with bad timming and offkey vocals so that at least i can look myself in the mirror and feel a bit better in myself  another great track cheers yours enviously P

Yeah great song and well sung , and the background voices really added that something extra ..cheers p

Hi Tim , well this one stretched my musical mind a few times which is always a good thing so i had to go back a few times to re listsen...... nice one  cheers P

Gary just soo beauitful your voice was absolutely perfect and the live recording  faultless and thats very difficult to pull off ,once again thanks for posting just great .....

Yes Bjorn , lovely composition really clear and crisp recording ( if thats the technical jargon) cheers i liked it very much .

Not much of an ambiant man myself but I listened to the end and was chilled out,  pleasant trip super sounds , 

Hi this was lovely , i have a real problem with recording acoustic guitars , but you seem to have nailed it great sound nice composition .

Hi Chaps thanks for all your comments , considering I wasnt going to persue this song any further it  was only due to all the super response and encouragement  from you guys that I started again almost from scratch  and brought it thus far it seems i get to a point that i play the song and record  the so many times over that i get ``rose tinted glasses´´ on the brain where i just cant see/hear the Wonky bits anymore (the strings bridge  timing is out) ...so i´ll, as Mark rightly states i I should invest in some ..additional time consuming , boring  , tedious timing editing, once again thanks you for being so generous in your compliments and comments .....as my teacher used to say  ....good but can do better cheers P

Hi Doug, I really liked the guitar tone and the harmonies did the trick

I think all the sounds are a bit in yer face , that said its  beautiful, it meanders on and on and as bjorn said it needs a recuring theme , but it still sounded great, lovely instuments ,

Well thanks for all your comments , I put quite a few hour`s in and well added new vocals , bridge etc never imagined i´d get such a positive response to this one as i binned it almost as fast as i wrote it .... so thanks for the support....

                                    Suburban Susan         by paul bush

She goes on every demonstration not just for the cause, it beats being alone,

she straps herself to the mast, to hide her dubious past,

While your new friends are stuck to the road …

Well you’ve been telling lies about your family ties you

don’t come from a broken home, Well she`s you’re a semi detached                                   

Aristocrat, dressing down for her gig on the road   

chorus

Well they can Sing ***** by jaaa on an old guitar, 

untill the ugly girls red In the face , Well you can all   

lock all  your arms, outside those factory farms. saving the human race.

           

Well they can Sing ***** by jaaa on an old guitar, 

And strap yourselves onto the fence, well wave your

banners high, next to the guy who reeks of pertuly oil and incense                                       

 

 Well the kids left home now your all alone, And your man´s got much better things to do

 well you’ve re-read all your books , and now your fading looks are  staring in the mirror at you ..

 If there’s just a slim chance, a whiff of romance,

 When loneliness gets to you,  Well just fantasy, but it

 might just be the right thing to pull you on through,

chorus                     

 Well they can Sing ***** by jaaa on an old guitar, 

  and the pudgy girl still getting no breaks

  Well she´s coloured her hair , more times than cher 

   And screamed slogan’s  till she`s blue in the face

Bridge

 She`s never been noticed for being a woman,

first time she`s felt part of the ``in´´crowd, now she cries out loud..             

                                    …..solo…...

Chorus                               

Well they can Sing ***** by jaaa on an old guitar, 

And miss piggy is still up for grabs and all the feminists smiled

with their adopted child And the vegans have eat all of the cake

Well they can Sing ***** by jaaa on an old guitar                     

In the hope of being on t.v

Well they marched just a mile, with their self-righteous smiles                                                          

Blowing whistles and tambourines

Well they can Sing ***** by jaaa on an old guitar, 

We´ll meet up back at the bar Switch on the BBC is it you is it me?

Just like daytime tv star

                                                       

 

Thanks Bjorn , I never know if the songs i write are good or not , I try and do something different sometimes it works sometimes not and i think ``Flint´´ was one of those where  the message was more dominant than  the song  so i think i was pleased with that one......... doesnt happen very often cheers

Great vocals , and i love the harmonies right up my street this one well worth completing 

Oh well! at first i thought ??? but i slowly fell in love with this song so much in there, bloody lots of everything, very very clever musicaly brilliant well bloody done I´m jealous cheers
