Waiting For The Reaper ManI hope there is room for one more "Life is hard and then you die" blues song I don't usually like blues style of music, though I make blues songs that mock at blues. This song however had a title first and it needed a blues song around it. Maybe also the chilly autumn gave an important ingredient to the lyrics. And Band-in-a-box had the right instruments to finalize that idea. I saved the video from BIAB, mixed the song in Adobe Audition and replaced the original audio track with that mix. I used keying to let my autumn footage shine through the BIAB background.

Janne, what an interesting song. Some nice twists, good use of the minor keys, and the phrasing was quite unique.
Another great addition was the backing on the video, replacing white with the vision.
Harmonies and overdubbing was quite well done
Good job

As Scott said - cool! Not at all what I expected, and a good listen.

Thanks for a very analytic comment I'm glad to hear you found so many interesting details in the song Thanks David S for commenting, unfortunately I have no idea how to associate my blues song to Pink Floyd, but sounds like it belongs to good company Scott C & David C: Thanks for commenting and "cooling" my song --- Janne

This is really super. Wow what a great chord progression! You vocals were super also as were the backing tracks.
I really don't know what genre one would put this in but who cares!
This is a keeper!
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.
