I did enjoy the laid back feel.

The blues guitar with the jazz piano is a wonderful contrast. They lyrics were really clever, thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing! C-sharp when you cross the street… or you’re going to B-flat.

Hopefully it makes sense.

Tony Thanks, Tony. I was wondering if the translation all made sense as sometimes I find when two languages are very different, direct translation might sound strange to the other. Thanks for the confirmation. Cheers.

Loved your voice (I think you could bring it a bit more forward in the mix). Is it possible for you to post your original Chinese vocal? I'd love to hear it in its native language! Thanks.

Also, the way you incorporated that bluesy feel with traditional Chinese instruments was very interesting! It really gave it an interesting dynamic. Really well done - thanks for sharing Cheers, Deryk

Thank you very much for your comments. The vocal is not my voice. it was synthesized using a singing synthesizer software called Vocaloid. There is not Chinese vocal recorded though I do have a plan to do that in the future using my own voice.
