SUPAREELS

Thanks Tom I never knew any of this stuff ...very much appreciate your time. Back to the drawing board .. can't wait to try ? Regards Steve

Ditto Tom's input ... But I like how it makes me feel so good work .. getting into vids at the moment so I'll check out P/B/V Thanks for the post SR

Just waiting for the film to start ... Utmost respect to you .. from Mr Gushy ? Steve

Thanks Keith, if you read through some suggestions ( which I always take on board ) , some of my pears have suggested exactly that, hence the laughter emogee, It didn't work for me when I tried putting a drum and bass track on, most probably due to my skill level or preference when listening to it .. Anyway I hope you get the emogee thing, cause I wouldn't want to offend ? and many thanks for your input & comment. ATB Steve

I have to agree with you Andy, after reading Kurt's comment, it made me feel that drums and bass could pull the melody out and it hadn't occurred to me while writing the song .. so I have tried laying complimentary bass with a drum track, just to get a feel .. maybe it's my skill level but it spoiled the 'message' and has not worked so I wont be returning to this song with a view to alter it. Thankyou for listening and the helpful comments.? Steve

Thankyou for the comment Treesha, it may be of interest to note that I recorded this song using platinum then mastered it on my Tascam 688 to get the analogue feel after which I used Power Director for the video plus the Tascam track ... bit nerdy but just putting it out there in case of any interest.? Steve

I can only echo the positive comments ... you are a gifted guy ..no doubt. Excellent work? Stay well Steve

Graced my ears! So good, you tick the heart to say 'like' ... that ain't half the truth of what I got from this work ..blimey mate ..all I'd say is thankyou ..loved it (Getting a bit gushy so I'll stop)? Staywell Steve

..... And I'd love to be able to play Baker street .. a bit beyond my pay grade mate LOL ... thanks for the comments Lynn, I'm made up Stay well Steve

Thanks mate means a lot coming from you ? Steve

I never really thought of putting drums on this one Kurt ... Hmmm ...if I was good enough at skins I'd have a go 'cause I bet that would add to the dynamics, thanks for the input, I might see if I can though ??

Thanks for your comment Bjorn, your enquiry about D365, It was a typo and should have read PD 365, which is a video editing software package I'm getting into right now. I am experimenting with different codecs and recording methods both audio and video ... heavy stuff (a bit like going back to college ) but hey, it keeps me from going nuts in these covid ridden times.☢️ Stay well mate Best regards Steve

New vid ..trying out D365

No crits .. Just love your stuff keep 'em coming .. Steve?

Thanks Gary ... I think? LOL ?

Thanks guys .. this is a bit of a bubble gum type song with the usual key suspects but I was trying out my expertise on playing drums to a track in real time .. I guess I miss the ball there Bjorn LOL .. Still I recovered my pride and have provided a serious remix ..no drums ... and a l o n g ending no snips ? ...Plus wishing EVERYONE on this site, some of which feel like real family. all the best for your coming year ... stay well XX

Great mix and no crits! BTW the studio's looking cool ? HNY mate Steve

SECOND VERSION Thanks for the input Lynn & Bjorn 1 ST VERSION TO LIVE OUR LIVES AGAIN I can't remember everything that went before I can't recall every word that we said But when I think of you every now and then Oh if only we /I could live our / my life ( lives) again The day we met we were only kids back then I remember people said it wouldn't last But something in your eyes, so trusting and so blue Was all it took to spend my life with you Let us go down to riverside,where the oak trees used to grow Holding hands just like we used to do And watch butterflies dance on the rivers flow M8 Let us go down to riverside,where the oak trees used to grow Holding hands just like we used to do And watch butterflies dance on the rivers flow

Hi Kevin, I take the fact the bass line is a little low in the mix as it could be a tad higher. The double tracking could maybe do with the harmony's taken up a bit too esp the chorus and the Ahoo's and my last crit is that the ending has been cut too short. Overall and as a fan of your stuff, I love to listen to a good song and follow the wording, so if you could post them up .. ? Great song, you have such a wistful tone to your vocal it's almost haunting. ATB Steve

Wow .. that's it nothing more to say .. maybe just , it felt like I'd just been to a concert and heard a play ..loved it .. Oh and I use Power Director 365 Happy days Steve

Definitely your unique style .. very profound message Bjorn ... your guitar work is great and you must have stayed at it to produce this work ! Love your words mate Steve

Hi Lynn, As you know I've been checking out your work, to get a feel of your vibe .. this new mix. to my ears anyway, works well given how you write, it still has a lot going on but gets through with your great lyrics .. Yes/sir ..ee ! still a fan .. might write a song with that line ' STILL A FAN' ( WOTCH-THIS-SPACE ? ) ATB Steve

You just keep getting better, your understanding of phrasing the textures of this very underrated synth makes for a great piece to listen to .. one nig, the ending sounds like it was cut short, but still a 10/10 from me ? Stay well Steve

Hi mate, You know from old I'm a words guy and these lyrics fit your voice like a warm glove and a cold hand ! Great stuff ! love the concept and passion .. I really do. however for me, the mix seems to get a little too fussy and in places doesn't seem to work with all that's going on .. BUT that said I'm on a third listen so I guess, for me I'm a fan ! Stay well Lynn and all the best to the Wilson tribe over Xmas Steve

Hi Kenny, Thanks so much for the blindingly great compliments ... sometimes it means everything to reach one person the way this work seems to have caught you. We are all writing and performing stuff here and look to our peers for a tick or cross on our work LOL. As said to David it's an empathic bit of songwriting because I have been married to my best friend for 40 years! ( No one else would put up with the cost of this bloody songwriting gig !) That's not to say I have forgotten the pain of growing up and feeling that bitter taste when it all goes wrong ... like you knowingly write ' The song itself was a good telling of a universal story that happens to most of us ' . Thanks again Kenny, you made my day ?? ATB Steve
