What a Christmas surprise to see your name once again on the forum. I'm so glad to have you back. I see you are grooving in your bass register. Now that your gear issues are fixed, I expect to hear more from you. Merry Christmas!

Dani, welcome back! Funny and fun tune that sounds unique but so, SO perfect. Nice use of oohs/ahs and the soloist. Those vocals and harmonies are intense, too. A delightful return to BiaB and the forum from my perspective. Glad your tech issues are in the past.

Dani,
Welcome back! I'm happy to hear your vocals again. It's as light and lively as ever. It's unusual for a song to be about computer problems. I've experienced computer problems a few times myself, but I never thought of turning them into a song. Enjoyed my listen a lot. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Best regards.

Dani, welcome back. I'm glad you got your computer problems solved. You came back with a real toe tapper! Great vocal and mix. I really liked this one.

Dani,
I was just thinking the other day that "I haven't heard anything from Dani in a while"! It's great to hear something new from you and it's a great song! I always get a surf music vibe from your tunes and you are certainly the forum king in that genre even though this tune has a country feel in places! Your lyrics are an open letter to the forum community, and I feel I speak for a lot of us when I say welcome back! Hope your computer issues are sorted for a while now!
Take care, TB
