**7/24 UPDATE- Female duet added! Fabulous female vocal part laid down by my good friend and long time duet partner Tone Hjelt from Oslo, Norway. Hope you enjoy our collaboration! Full recreation cover of Love Hurts, inspired by the Gram Parsons/Emmylou Harris duet version. Just my vocal so far, hoping for some female collaborators to cover Emmylou's part.

Thanks for the listen Nigel, appreciate it! I never thought about the PF Time connection when I was doing it, but I definitely hear it now. Pretty obvious who my influences are I guess, lol! ?✌️

Thanks for the listen Jack!

Thanks for the listen and for the feedback Mark, sincerely appreciate it! Just being mentioned in the same sentence as PF is flattering. Now that you mention it, I get the similar vibe to Time.

Thanks Daryl, appreciate the listen and feedback!

Nice job! Very enjoyable tune, great performance and production as well.

Playing around with some sound-trackey ideas. Having fun with vocal echoes in the process! ? Please let me know what you think (be sure to catch both sections). https://www.bandlab.com/revisions/113a7865-161c-ee11-907c-000d3a41ed52?sharedKey=jSe1ZNgHykGqD4I_acd5GA

Excellent work, enjoyed listening! What strings are you using?

Nice work!

Nice track Wookie! Very cool, mysterious sounding composition, the thick analog synth textures work well, really draw you in.

Nice track Bjorn! Definitely does have a weightless, floaty vibe to it, which gives it the space music feel for sure. 2001 clips are a cool touch. Great work!

Fabulous songwriting and performance, your daughter is very talented! Your production choices are great as well, really compliments the tune. Enjoyed it!

Hi Nigel, thanks for dropping in and checking it out! Appreciate the encouragement

Hey Lynn, thanks for dropping in and checking it out! Not usually my style of production, but I'm trying to stretch myself into new areas as well. I thought this bass pattern would lend well to a more electronic arrangement, so I gave it a go.

Great work on this, Mark! Everything came together nicely… Guitar work, vocals, production, all sounds great, balanced and clean! Enjoyed the listen!

Nice work on this Jack! Very nice vibe, cool textures and progressions.

Hey Bjorn, appreciate the kind words and for taking time to listen!

Hey Larry, thanks for listening in, I appreciate it! Your encouragement is appreciated also!

Thanks for listening and for the kind words! Have fun with the bass line!

Haven't used the mastering tools on Bandlab, I'll check it out!

Very cool, driving groove! Great guitar work and nice vocal effect. Love the "honey you got a dime" break too... ??

Hey, thanks for the listen and for the encouraging words!

Thanks for listening and for your comments! Good suggestion about the length, I was thinking about that, anyway, so you kind of put me over the edge!

Thanks for listening and for the feedback. I’m sold, vocs need to go UP!!

Thanks for listening Jack and for the feedback! I have gone back and forth about the voice volume, I think you’re right it needs to be up a bit.
