bjornpdx 1,217 Posted March 19 Hi John Great lyrics as usual. Not a "down" sound at all. Well done orchestration. Don't have any suggestions Sounds very good as is. -Bjorn 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
treesha 403 Posted March 20 Hi John, Love the low keys, nice bass - enjoy the slides, glad it’s only a “hypothetical” heart break ballad. Like the arrangement, the different parts, nice strings entrance, unexpected horn, vocals express the words well. I like how you mix up the instruments in different parts of the song, nice variety and changes . The mix sounds really good over here. Enjoyed it ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lynn Wilson 812 Posted March 20 This is a beautiful song, John, and very well produced! It shows your impressive skill in arranging and lyric writing, and your vocal is strong enough to carry this sophisticated melody. Since I've followed you, your growth has been off the charts, and I look forward to your next opus. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Down as far as sad but the world isn't full of happiness all the time so neither should music. 😀JB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndyB01 584 Posted March 22 Nice work John - especially on the bass line, strings and horns - not to mention an impressive vocal range. One of your best I think. Andy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
