I hear the improvements 🙂 Thanks for the heads up mate On 8/18/2020 at 11:44 AM, Douglas Kirby said: I enjoyed the song Daryl - your music has a unique quality to it - you have your own style. I liked the sections where you did the radio tone vocal parts - that worked well. Overall I liked the mix - cheers. Thanks a lot Doug On 8/18/2020 at 12:10 PM, Grem said: As I listened I kept thinking of the eighties band that sounded like that, and when Nigel mentioned this band, I was like, "Yep! That's what I'm hearing." I like the instrument choices and how well they blended together. Clean mix. Good song too! I got a few songs that I think are real 'heartfelt' too. May post a few so you won't feel all alone. : ) Thanks Grem - I'll take Squeeze as a comparison. Please do post - I need as much support as I can get 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could hear her maybe singing some kind of reply or response to the existing lyrics. Even without her singing it's a nice thoughtful tune with a nice positive message well written and recorded! Thanks Tim - she's in there on this one - backing vocals on the chorus. She is a proper singer - I'm just a hack On 8/18/2020 at 5:35 PM, Wookiee said: Not a bad little love song Daryl, you have obviously RTFM the married manual 🤔 Absolutely Wookster.

I didn't hear the previous mix of this, so all I can comment on is the new "less top" version, and it sounds good my ears. Clear and clean, and a nice spacious mix. Really good stuff, well-performed! Rob Thanks so much Rob On 8/19/2020 at 5:12 PM, DeeringAmps said: Sounds good in car! t cool - good to know - thanks Tom On 8/19/2020 at 8:30 PM, freddy j said: Terrific lyrics - you are lucky to have your wife but I bet your wife might feel she has a good deal of luck in having you. I'm always a big fan of your vocals and harmony. I did not hear the "toppy" version but this "top less" (strike that and reverse it) sounds top notch! Thanks Freddy - I got the better end of the deal I prefer top-less Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On 8/20/2020 at 6:32 PM, bjornpdx said: Daryl Another song in your inimitable style. No need to apologize or feel embarrassed for lovey dovey lyrics as long as they're sincere and heartfelt. They are. Thanks so much Bjorn On 8/21/2020 at 4:43 AM, emeraldsoul said: I 100% thought "those are Squeeze-like chord changes!" but all your own original style, natch. Squeeze was a great band I thought and I hope that's a compliment - I always appreciated their willingness to break conventions and rules in things like chord selections, melodies, and arrangements. That's what this song has going for it in spades - plus another excellent mix with clarity and separation. Loved it. cheers, -Tom Thanks Tom my mate - I'll take Squeeze.

Jesse Screed 341 Posted September 29, 2020 This is cool I like all the stretching a song about dichotomous reality keep on playing with that a lucky two you both liked it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Walsh 123 Posted September 29, 2020 Slick, sophisticated, clever and skillfully rendered. As always! The thing I love about your music is the variety of things that beep, squonk and whistle in the spaces of the melody, and I often wonder how you made those sounds. You have talent and skill and it's on full display here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
