colly,

Welcome to Users Showcase and congratulations on posting your first song. If I recall correctly, you've only had BIAB for 10 days or so. You've certainly made a great first impression with this!

Looking forward to more.

All the best,
Noel

Correct Thanks mate.

I just thought I would just try to get something together for the comp,

You know I listened to the competition and I thought.

there is brilliance in everything that's been done.

How the hell can I do better....

God bless

Colly,

Seconded on the congrats for posting your first song - and an enjoyable one with a catchy melody and good vocal.
Impressive for barely getting the program out of the box!
Look forward to more.

Excellent tune. Welcome to the forum

colly,

Welcome to the Showcase! Terrific first post.

The style - and instruments included - are perfect for the song.

Nice mix. Everything sounds clear, nothing out of place.

Nice vocals - well recorded - you have a very pleasant singing voice (would never guess you were Scottish). Sung with feeling...

Enjoyed this.

Thanks Floyd

This is awesome! I love this style and what you have done with it! A great contribution to the forum!

Well done!!

Wow, yeah, this is a really excellent first-ten-days effort! Congratulations, looking forward to hearing more from you. Loving your vocals

Hello, Colly

Welcome to the forum.
You have a very nice voice and beautiful melody lines.
In B part, you use same motif as A part .
It is very effective.
It is pretty difficult to use same motif avoiding the listeners would get tired of it.
I think you have the technique of song-writing.
I am looking forward to hearing more from you.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best Regards.

Very nice write, vocal, mix and RT choice!

We enjoyed it.

Great first post!! This is a very cool song, and very polished vocal/production. You must have a long history with music/songwriting. I heard a little bit of a Grateful Dead vibe. Really enjoyed this! Welcome!! Take care. Greg

Greg Thanks for your comments.

I was doing a bit on samples before I decided on the real tracks.

I came upon the forum one night. And could not believe what I was

hearing when listening to the songs posted.

I've not wrote that many songs you could count in the one hand how many.

I was involved with bands in the nineties and earned a living that way.

I do play guitar and was a singer ..miss the band days so I'm loving this and the forum.


p.s. sorry for late reply work commitments took me away from home and biab.

take care

Great first post. I enjoyed your song a lot. Nice vocals. Take away the country flavor of your song and there's the feeling of Gerry Rafferty in your voice.

I'm looking forward to hearing more from you soon.


Charlie

Outstanding first post.

Your professionalism shines through on this one. The mix, your vocal and backing tracks fit perfectly.

This is really an outstanding first post.

two thumbs up

thanks Mario

And thank you for your input when I was posting for advice .

I really cant thank you all enough.

You all know who you are...as the saying goes.

Take care

I agree with all that floyd said as I usually do. More! Tom
