Lynn Wilson Posted March 1, 2024 Posted March 1, 2024 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
daryl1968 Posted March 1, 2024 Posted March 1, 2024 I just listened to this over on that social network that we go to.... Brilliant mate. Love it. The chorus is amazing and I wish I wrote it 1
bjornpdx Posted March 1, 2024 Posted March 1, 2024 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

Sailor55 Posted March 2, 2024 Posted March 2, 2024 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

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.
mark skinner Posted March 3, 2024 Posted March 3, 2024 Great job on All of the vox Lynn ! I thought the intro panning was perfect , it really set the song up nicely. Enjoyed All of it .. Great Chorus .. mark 2 1
Old Joad Posted March 3, 2024 Posted March 3, 2024 I love the guitar work on this tune, and the lyrics are great.? 1 1
freddy j Posted March 4, 2024 Posted March 4, 2024 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

jwnicholson78 Posted March 17, 2024 Posted March 17, 2024 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
