The intro certainly was a walk down a path to an un-forshadowed garden. VERY Cool song. The horns are a little bright/plastic but otherwise it's a great arrangement.

Great song, great arrangement, AMAZING vocals. Love everything about this. Super lyrical sentiment and sonic energy. Hooks on hooks. My favorite details are the opening ramp and the harmonies. GREAT job here!

Very cool. This has an infectious groove that pushes along and those staccato horn stabs are ear candy. Kinda like Tower of Power meets The Cars.
The intro was really interesting. A lot going on in there.
That was enjoyable. Hi Herb I'm glad the intro didn't scare you off. My initial plan was to make it even more chaotic, but my therapist suggested otherwise. 😲 Now I can be happy knowing I've created something that sounds like a bizarre mashup of two bands I love. I'm now accepting applications for a band name reflecting that combo... Tower Car? The Towers of Power Steering? Open to suggestions!" (◔_◔) Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment Herb. regards Izzy

Izzy, I had a smile on my face for the entire song Super song Great vocal Fantastic backing band I really liked this one 𝕄𝕒𝕣𝕚𝕠-𝕟𝕚𝕗𝕚𝕔𝕖𝕟𝕥 Thanks so much! Glad I could provide a sonic smile. I'm considering marketing the song as an alternative to Botox... slightly less painful, I think. Now I just need to figure out how to clone you so I can get a thousand more reviews just like that! 😀 Thanks again!

Great vocals and lyrics, plus the song is very excellently orchestrated. Hi Chay Thanks a bunch! 'Great vocals and lyrics' is what I tell my grandkids, but 'excellently orchestrated' is the real compliment. Appreciate you listening!" cheers Izzy

Ray, thanks so much for taking the stroll through my sonic garden. I'm thrilled you liked the arrangement. As for the horns, well, I guess I was going for that 'vintage Tupperware' sound. 🙄 Appreciate the kind words. 👍 Cheers mate. Izzy

Hi Izzy.
What a fantastic groove. The bass introduction really caught my imagination and then, when the horns came in, your really grabbed hold of me. This is excellent listening. I love lyrics. Everything about this presentation is infectious in the best musical way possible. I thoroughly enjoyed the journey.
--Noel G'day Noel, Thanks a million for the wonderful review! I'm ecstatic you dug the groove – I've been feeding it Victoria Bitter and motivational speeches, so it's good to know it's paying off. 😜 I'm genuinely thrilled you enjoyed it. I usually just play to my cat, and he's a notoriously tough crowd. So your feedback means a lot. Oh and you have sparked an idea - I'm officially adding "Infectious" in the best musical way possible to my tombstone.! 👌 Thanks again Noel Izzy. 🙃

I love the entire lyric but these really grab me:
“The sun keeps shining when it sees my grin” and “The moon’s a lamp and it’s smiling at me” and “Dreams ain’t heavy they’re easy to hold The heart’s the engine not silver or gold”
The horns sound great and like they are punctuating the happiness. And the vocals are pure joy.
Yes, there is a Steve Miller vibe but also a Traveling Wilburys vibe too, and that’s a good thing.
Be Here Now. 😊

Another good song! Remembering your intention to life your spirits, I had this music video image in my head while listening of clowns tooting their red horns while dancing in an otherwise serious video, which of course, made me laugh. Really enjoying your sounds, Izzy.

I love the song, Izzy. Unusual intro and when the vocal came in and started rocking, it took my by surprise. All good. And the vocal is simply awesome. Cool ending!

Izzy,
Strong! I was going to mention everything I like about this song, but I would need several pages to do that. In summation, after two listens: Better than excellent. When one listens to something so good you can't find all the superlatives to express the quality, you know you've heard exceptional excellence. And that's what I just heard.
Love the ending!
Alan

A brilliant blues-buster. A great job on every level and the song was an ideal vehicle for your vocals.

Izzy, I've heard this couple of weeks ago and was amazed back then, but wanted to re-listen before responding. One of the coolest songs I've heard in showcase this year. It's great on so many levels, like eating a thousand layer napoleon that my granny used to bake. Fantastic show of creativity, skill and technical knowledge. Enjoyed it very much and thank you for sharing. Misha.

Hi Scott (sorry for the late reply) I'm blushing louder than my amp stack.😂 Seriously though, thanks for the awesome feedback. Glad the vocal resonated with you. I'm glad you liked the ending. It was a close call - almost ran out of song! ʘ‿ʘ ✂ my best regards Izzy
