Thanks chaps for all the positive feedback, Bass Is really a problem with  me as I cant really play Bass and i´m never really happy with it so I tend to and hide it and inspite of that a I do turn it up but never enough It may be due to my cheap headphones , I bought nice ones and well I just dont like them , I threw everything but the kitchen sink at this one  productionwise (creative sauce tutorials my lifes blood) I do feel this is my best production thus far ...learning by doing as they say .....great forum, great members ,always a pleasure  cheers guys...... 

Yeah you got the raw bones alright I agree with Tom though it could do with some rythum guitar 

Hi chaps , well here`s a new one , Ive been through every stage of loving it , hating it, dumping it, and plain fed up with it, that said I´m now rather happy with it as always all of your comments are welcome . cheers Paul

You wanna run before you learned how to walk,

You wanna shout before you`ve learned how to talk,

Think you can change your life with ink

Still you dont feel that your fitting in

You change, you change, for changes sake but that

dont help the emptyness inside, Re-invent, re-invent,

re-invent yourself , but you just cant hold back the tide

You paint yourself to stand out from the crowd,

Pierce your skin and you talk too loud

you can protest for unknown cause

but you still find youreslf all alone

.....chorus.....

…...Oohaaa Oohha.........

Bridge

Youre checkin out, your reflextion, nobody see´s you

No one pays you no mind, Blending in with the crowd

Feeling not so proud, Your fanatsy world breaking

down yeah

Tattoo`s are stinging , pieced skin`s a weeping

Your pride is creaking….yeah yeah yeah...

….solo....

Acoustic Break

…...ohh ahh ooh ahh ooh ahh.......

Youve backed yourself into a corner right now

Being so cool , just didnt work out

The outside world frightens you most

You walk alone feeling just like a ghost

.....chorus.....

.....outro.....

Break out from yourself

stop being someone else

stand on your own two feet

and set yourself free

Break out from yourself

stop being someone else

your not on the shelf

and set yourself free

All i can say is that I concure with all of the above , just great

Hi Lynn ,  cant pidgeon hole your stuff and thats a good thing , I went back and took another take and it was still haunting me . A great piece of work congratulations...cheers paul

Hi Mark,  lots going on there loved the left right panning  and the guitar playing was great, acoustic tones beautiful,  I didnt hear too much Bass guitar though maybe needs to be more prominent  , and yeah its crying out for some vocals ..but then I would say that wouldnt I  ?

cheers paul

Hi Whoisp , this really isnt my bag man ..but that  said i can appreciate all the hard work youve put into this , this is just so complex and dam clever , I had to go back and listen three times ... and as for the video well just super ..a great piece of work.... cheers paul

Yeah liked this one lots of cool key changes , makes the listener really work for it , Bits of Joe Jackson, and the other fella Graham parker in there for me ....loved the horns great song  ..really well crafted song

Hi Keith those backing vocals really pop  ,great song

Hi guys easy when one knows how  thanks for the info  , I was copying and pasting so the markers were also being kopied , hold right click hold and delete key cheers all  

Hi chaps , this must be easy but its driving me mad after adding markers to verses, chorus. etc somehow they have doubled up now and i just want to delet the ones I dont need  , Ive deleted the names of these markers but after right left  clicking   the flag stays  in the window just making a mess of my organised work , I´m scracthing my head on this .please put me out of my misery ..cheers P

Which in turn reminds me of Dr Evil ?

I really must have a listen to some APP stuff. If you've seen the "Get Back" footage on Disney, that's him lurking in the background in the control room at Apple.

Ive been a fan of Alan Parsons for years, saw him live in Salzburg about ten years ago ``eye in the sky ´´ is a clasic album `  ``turn of a friendly card´´  also

Yeah I liked this one a lot , lots of changes vocals just top , just great

Any plugin that problematic I ditch and move on to something else.

That's an easy one. In the preferences, check "suspend audio engine when Cakewalk is not in focus "

Cheers Byron , youve saved me a lot of head scratching and re-booting  ,
