PhonoBrainer 1,988 Posted October 8, 2022 Very nice vocals indeed, and they get a lot of support from well chosen pads and bgv. For a nit, it felt like the drum programming was throwing in a lot of fills in the middle of sung verses, a bit distracting for me. Uh, the ending??? 😳 is something planned??? There is a crapton to like here and your vocals top the list, very good song worthy of everyone's time. cheers, -Tom 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bajan Blue 1,328 Posted October 8, 2022 Hi Steve Really good song, and the vocals are excellent - there was like a scratching sound in the mix that I found a little off-putting, apart from that all good Nigel 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dream Art Scientists 84 Posted October 8, 2022 Great singing, great song! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lynn Wilson 688 Posted October 11, 2022 Another fine example of your brilliant song writing and singing! This takes me back to the days of Gerry Rafferty. Overall, it seems a bit trebly and shy in the low end, but it still has a lot of magic. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are a few "idiosyncrasies" as mentioned above but given your talent I am sure you could quickly address them. Well done!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wookiee 2,009 Posted October 22, 2022 As noted the mix needs a little attention, nicely sung vocal, I will reserve judgment on the rest post recovery and remix. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark skinner 788 Posted October 25, 2022 (edited) Great change at the 2 min. mark. This song surely deserves further attention. Very well written and sung. Very Nice .. mark Edited October 25, 2022 by mark skinner 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjornpdx 1,116 Posted October 26, 2022 One of your best, Steve! A couple notes I took while listening: Needs a little more intro 0:38 the bgv fits the voc really well 1:35 I thought I was hearing some static here? 2:25 bgv might be overpowering here Really impressed with the orchestration. So nice. The word "incident" and the Harley photo conjures up some images -Bjorn ------------------------------------------------ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
