The recording is very clear. I like that. And the melody itself is pleasant listening to.
And have I mentioned the lyrics? I had to laugh how you got the idea for it. Very creative!
Liked it,
Hans


Thanks Hans, I really appreciate your valuable and heartwarming feedback smile Glad to make you laugh smile I understand what you say about the vocals, many times I have noticed how the singer makes different songs sound almost the same. I'm just a songwriter, not a singer so I would happily give the singing responsibility to somebody else who would give my songs a new type of personality, like I did several years ago, now I just don't want to bother people who are not that much into music as they used to be...

I like it when the mood of the music contrasts with the lyrical mood--it makes the lyrics stand out more when done well. Good work.


Thanks for your compliments smile Nice to read your interesting comment about contrasts, one listener has said that it's his cup of tea, maybe I should try that kind of approach more...

WOW What a great story! I was expecting a blues type rhythm but that jazz rhythm and chords were a very pleasant surprise. Extremely well done. Your vocal was strong and the mix was very good.

PS - I know that addiction can be a terrible thing. We had a friend whom drank himself silly by the age of 50. He was confined to a nursing home. We did a song about it called Demon. If you are interested here is the url:

My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Question...in the lines
"You're my anchor, my lead
that will drag me into your deep"
does lead refer to the heavy metal (Pb) or the guide to follow/control ( pronounced leed)?


Thanks Ray for your kind feedback smile "Lead" doesn't refer here to the metal, although I can now understand the connection (lead weight). The direct synonym would be leash, but it could be a guide in a looser sense. In the original Finnish version there was only the anchor part, but I had to add something to make it rhyme better in English. I thought first to say 'anchor in life' and then add 'wife' later, but it sounded bit cliched.

Enjoyed!

Thanks Mario for your very kind words smile I'm glad you liked the jazz rhythm.

Your Demon is a very strong song, the blues is a perfect match for the sad story. Although I have not much personal experience and my song is based on a thought in a dream, it is sad to read so many stories how addicts have hurt themselves and also people who have tried to help them so many times.
