Thank you for listening and commenting, Rik.

Nigel, thank you much for listening and commenting. The places one can get feedback are rare these days. I truly appreciate this forum for that opportunity.

Thanks for the listen Kevin. I was able to isolate the issues with hiss that Wookie was hearing and eliminate most of that. There are still finger slide squeaks, foot tapping and maybe the odd chair squeak occasionally. I decided to leave some of those organic noises be. I want to especially thank you for the comments on the vocals. I’ve been vocally challenged my entire life. 😊. I’ve worked hard over the years to get better. The fact that this was originally tracked years ago, tells me that I maybe wasn’t as bad as I used to think. If you wish to hear more of my solo work, there are two other songs I’ve posted here lately as well. More to come as I remixsome older tunes. Several new writes in the oven.

I've added a link to my YouTube channel for this song. In general, I feel I am moving to this platform over Sound Cloud. I have hit my limited number of minutes in Sound Cloud and it just seems less attended than it used to be. So....new link. Hope you enjoy.

Added a new YouTube link.

Word, music and production by Michael Hanson Gravity Verse 1 I hear You whispering, Your voice is calling me. My head is filling with A massive energy. My mind is spinning and I feel Your hand on me. Something is pulling me Directly to my knees. Chorus Your gravity is pulling me, A magnet with a hold on me. Gravity is what I seek, Your gravity is pulling me—to You. Verse 2 I’ve tried to run away, Chasing endless dreams Fading memories. Are never what they seem. But still, You steady me, You bring me to my knees. You are the ground beneath, You light these shadow feet. Chorus Your gravity is pulling me, A magnet with a hold on me. Gravity is what I seek, Your gravity is pulling me—to You. Bridge When I’m in the dark, weightless and lost, You won’t let go of me, no matter what the cost. When I rise and when I fall, spinning through the blue— Every single step I take, just leads me back to You. Final Chorus Your gravity is pulling me, A magnet with a hold on me. You hold me through the rise and fall, Gravity is at the center of it all. Your gravity is pulling me—to You.

Very cool Ed. Interesting feedback. I had to checkout membership, it’s tempting.

Same exact thing happened to me two days ago. I was advised to email cakewalk support by another member. I haven’t had time to try that route yet. Cakewalk is a secondary DAW for me and I’m focused on projects and production at the moment.

I attempted to update my email at Command Center. A very old email was used for my original log on and I no longer have access to it. I got the response that it sent me an email to confirm, which I am never getting. Sadly, It seems that I can no longer access any of my Legacy Products. I was after Rapture. Such an excellent plug in.

The closest disaster that I’ve avoided was with my Rick bass a few years back. I set it carefully in its stand to take a break between sets. During the break, one of the board mixing engineers decided he was going to mess around with cables on stage and started pulling them around the stage. It flipped my Rick face forward out of the stand and skidded across the strange face down. I gasped and was literally afraid to pick it up. When I finally got the nerve, I was surprised to find zero damage on the face of the bass. However, there was a small dent on the backside of the neck. How, I still have no idea. I filled it a little with some super glue and smoothed everything out. You can still slightly feel it sometimes while sliding up and down the neck. As far as guitars go, I own both a Les Paul Traditional and an Eric Johnson Strat. I started playing Les Pauls in the early 80’s. I’ve owned at least 6 different Les Pauls over the years, all seeing live play. I’ve yet to break a headstock after 45 years.

Nice tune, well done by all! Typical excellent Bapu production. How do you guys get Sound Cloud to embed in the Cakewalk forum? It’s very easy on other sites, but I’ve tried everything here and can just not figure it out. I asked this on my tune as well, if it’s more appropriate to reply there.

By the way, does anyone know how you embed Sound Cloud on this forum? All other forums I belong to embed the song. 😐 OK, figured it out.

I am continuing to update some old songs with new plug ins, Superior Drummer 3, remixing and remastering. This is another song from over 12 years ago. Let me know what you think of this mix; hopefully I've grown over the years. Edit: I am adding a YouTube link to many of these songs. Moving to the YouTube platform over Sound Cloud.

I’m not sure if I could survive that long without ice cream. Thats brutal and sorry to hear this.

Well, it’s 13 hours later and we’ve yet to hear from T Boog. I recon he hates us all.
