Hi AurealiusB!
This one almost slipped past me, but so glad I caught it. Very good lyrics idea by Kathy, and your music gave the song lots of pop hooks. Just the right length as well - making the listener go back for a second helping. Well done!

AurealiusB, extremely clever lyrics.
Super vocal and harp
Great arrangement, backing tracks, and mix
Loved it

PS - I did pull the plug once! Worst 10 minutes of my life grin


Dad, how will I know when I've become an adult.

Ha! Thanks MarioD!

Great feedback on my song and I'll let Kathy know you liked her lyrics. She has a way of using a lot of imagery in her song lyrics, which really makes a song stand out. Thanks too for complimenting me on my arrangement, backing tracks, vocal and harp. Happy you loved it!

Good song, good vocals, good use of BIAB. You might be wishing you'd shown that AC a little respect come July ; ).

That's a really nice soft-rocker. Love the instrumentation, mix and production - though the only think I long ago pulled the plug on was radio. I watch a couple of TV quiz shows and when any questions come up about 21st Century music I've mostly no idea who the solos singers and bands are.


Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

Thanks WaoBand for your reply. Yeah, this song was written in the early 1980s, so back then we did listen to the radio.

Thanks!

And yes, a lot of truth to this song even today (original song written in the 80s).

Keep in mind though, I think Kathy is using imagery in this song to describe a failed relationship.
