Lynn Wilson Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 This being an election year inspired me to put some of my thoughts to music, and this song is the result. I've been playing with the mix for several months until I hit on this version. I'm now ready for comments to see if I'm heading in the right direction. As always, I'm thankful for your contributions and ideas. It can be found here: https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14618237 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjornpdx Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Lynn, I always listen to your songs several times to appreciate the accompanying bits you do so well (and maybe steal them ?) No exception here and I agree with Daryl about the chorus which is still playing in my head hours later. Great job. -Bjorn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailor55 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Great stuff! I like this mix. Very dense, and yet I can easily isolate everything in every direction. Solid guitar work & lyric combined with an interesting sentiment. Believe me, I know the work that went into this. Much appreciated. - Daniel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did let this one simmer for quite a while, but I'm starting to see the endzone, at last. 5 hours ago, jack c. said: great guitar tone.drums seem a tad loose.bring up kick and snare.jack c Hi Jack, thanks for your suggestion. The drums are preset grooves from Superior Drummer 3, so if anything is loose, it's probably the guitars or bass. I'll listen for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy j Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 What a powerhouse of a song. Yes the guitar work is great - as i s the bass. The arrangement and timing used in the song was creative and doggone good! Your vocals and harmonies were equally as good. The lyrics were excellent and very poignant for today. I always enjoy the "additions" that you include in your songs. Excellent work and well done pal! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwnicholson78 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 The whole song was really well done, but I especially loved the opening riff and guitar tone. I personally would like to the hear the drums up a little. Jeff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
