Thank you Gary - I tried to stay true to the sentiment ... sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't 🙂

Thank you - I love this song and finally got a chance to try it.

Thank you Nigel - Really appreciate the feedback!

Thank you for watching! I am going to try to get this one some love on Spotify next.

Superb.

Love it - good work.

Wow - this is really well done. I like the dissonance with some of the chord structure. I guess it's not really dissonance, but away from normalcy which is mostly a good idea. Very clear recording. What do you use for piano? Is is a plugin? The bass sound is nice too.

You are on a roll. This is really interesting. I always have trouble picking out lyrics on everything. I got enough to know it's worth coming back and listening again. Is this from real life experience or just a story? The music is very interesting - good work.

Nice, tight and creative. Really good work.

Nice expansive sound fields there - I like that woooooo-oooo in the bass-mid against the popping high synths. Gonna have to dig out my synths and patch some cables (on the screen anyway!). Good work on this one. I like the way the level increases over time.

Cool Jack. I like the reverb right in the intro, and that unique bass sound is really interesting. Good work on this!

The new mix is superb. The stereo field hits you immediately and the depth throughout is really nice. Everything is great here.

Sorry to see him go - hopefully his talent will float around and be picked up by a new baby today. https://baselines.com/?p=7016

It seems like this song maintains relevance through the years, especially now. https://baselines.com/?p=7013

Thank you for listening!

Thank you my friend!

Thanks Mark! That picture of the astronaut that starts it off was done by AI 😮 Steve

Hey thanks Freddy - your comment made me smile! I had about a semester before calculators took hold - And at $350 for something you could now get for free on a phone, it would be another semester before I could afford one.

It's always tough to give feedback of that sort - the song is obviously good and you don't want to be a downer to somebody who works so hard. Your response is exactly the intended response (about future songs) - I do the same thing - it's good to get the suggestions that you can take forward with you, especially if like me you are working in sort of a vacuum now all alone in the studio! And if I tried to sing in the morning, I'd end up sounding like a pissed off turkey squawking at cars going by - in order to get anywhere close to being able to hit any notes, I need to be up for a few hours at least!

Great old time rock (for me anyway) - brings back great memories from the stuff that came out in the 70s hayday - and that is a compliment!

Thank you! I'm going to be using You Grow to get it (the song) on playlists on Spotify starting the 12th. You Grow worked really well for my last release. I think I might make a post here about it so others know my positive experience.

Nice rhythmic uplifting feel with those splendid acoustic guitars.

Very cool - that droning piano or whatever it is is really fun through the whole thing. A truly fun listen.

Love the whammy bar!

I really liked this one - the great acoustic tones and the interplay with it and the electric are stunning. Catchy beat that keeps things moving, interesting lyrics. If I had to pick one thing to comment about it would be the amount of emotion put into the vocals. Don't get me wrong, it is really nice. I don't know if I can explain this, but I will try - while listening I thought of Paul Simon singing this - he has the ability to maintain the sadness of a song without showing it in his singing - I hope you know what I mean. He somehow reigns in his emotions with his tone, and by doing so he somehow makes the song all that much more emotional. Maybe American Tune is an example of that.
