SUPAREELS

Thanks for the excellent and intuitive feedback Barry. I have written stuff for other people over the years but most of the time, to me anyway, they lost the meaning of the work for the trade off betweer the beat or melody .. that's OK cause it sells .. I never made big bucks and never will ( I'm here with my songwriting palls .. so who cares ) .. but as long as I reach someone .. it's all good ..... very good ! Your comments are much appreciated ? Steve

Ok ... but what about the piano and arrangement and stuff ... Gotta tell ya it brought a tear and so I am interested ... / ?

You know that sometimes all a song needs is the message, warts an' all, I have always felt your vocal is burnt chocolate .. soothing with an edge ... who played piano, a little bright in the mix but effective, although sometimes a contrast in the melody can be a great help to reach the listener, in the work you achieved this before your chorus .. have to say overall this song reached my heart ... really .... and you don't need my comment mate to know you have talent ! Great songwriting thanks Stay well Steve

Many thanks Paul ...and for listening glad you liked it ? All the best Steve

Many thanks Andy, I take your crits and might go back and reprint but for the time being I'll bask in the kind comments LOL ?. I'm thankful for your listen. Steve

Your comment comes as a big surprise to me, so many thanks for listening .. I feel like the head master just gave me a house point ! ? Stay well Steve

Thanks for the comment mate and your time to listen. Steve

Aww Gary, your too kind now I can't get my head through the studio door ! ? Thankyou for the comment mate ? Steve

Thanks Tom, regarding the snare, it's not something I thought about when recording this, as I left the rhythm more as a click guide .. I wish I had paid more attention to now 'cause your right .. ? All the best and stay well Steve

I agree with 'noynekker' it's true that you have used those samples in sympathetic way and it works for me. I think, going to your back catalog, the improvement in your creativity is really evident ! I listened to this in the lounge with a brew looking out at a rainy cold morning ..this somehow fitted my mood, very calming. Steve

If this were brandy it would have XO written on it .. bloody great !!! S

Nothing more to add but just loved it .. have to agree with Tom though ... too short, could listen to this stuff all day ! S

Great song ! for me I didn't think of Springsteen a got sort of Dylan vibe .. in any event great mix and very up ...which we all need ? S

Thanks mate, as regards to the YouTube post, I have had the software ( Power director 365 ) for a while and never used it and I wondered how they make music vids so I give it a shot ... lip sync is a bitch though LOL. Take your point about the drowning, think I got carried away a bit doing the whole thing. Thanks for your comments and keep well my friend. Steve

Thanks, I have a bit of work to do but your comments are so encouraging, thanks for your ears S

Thanks for the comment Lynn you are very kind ? S

Just mucking around with Power Director 365

My god what a voice, and you have a professional rhythm in your phrasing .. have not heard anything here more polished ?well done and a big thankyou for the post. S

Having listened to your work over the years, and in comparison, there's so much attitude in this later stuff that works for me. The mix is clean enough and gives a pro feel to the song and your guitar work although a little fussy is top draw .. I think I mean to say ...Great song mate ! Stay well and I hope the misses had a good one ? S

The style of this song is that your vocal falls a little behind the beat, something I love about a lot of your stuff, and I think Daryl has it right as the cumulative result appears as though there is a slight time issue, yep I would say the bass is off a tad but I wouldn't loose sleep over it. Scratchy guitar ? just mix it with a little less high end on the acoustic see how that sounds ...but again, all good really. I believe you know the chorus needs beefing up as that's the message the whole lyric brings you to, so that needs work ... a female vocalist D/T at say 1/3rd left and right in the mix and you harmonizing ...well, who knows, could work .. But for me this sounded great in the studio ..love it and great to hear another KW song ? S

Lyrics right up there, great colab ... LOL S

Nice work and very much enjoyed it . S

Thanks Tom. As usual supa advice? Like a big bruvver you are ( although I'm an old fart sooo it's metaphoric LOL ) S

I always read your comments in high regard, you and Bjorn always seem to get the message in a song, which is refreshing and over the years of listening to your stuff I feel a bit of a fraud, in that you are a true musician as so many here .. I am a lyrics guy with frustrations that I'm not ... so I tip my hat to you and thankyou for listening ? S

Thanks mate, I did this many years ago and your comment is sound ...through time I have learned a lot and would never have mastered this so badly, I will revisit this and post .. thanks again ..stay well S
