Well that was a treat! Loved the video, especially the gag signs. An excellent bit of soloing on that JB Strat (Jeff being the Guvnor as far as I'm concerned...) I can see a lot of work has gone into this, and it's a very worthy end product. Well done!
John John, thank you very much for your kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed the project. When I bought the JB Strat I was full of hope that some of the Guvnor's  expertise might come along with it. In vain - it wouldn't make rehearsing superfluous and it doesn't heal arthrosis in your fingers... But what the heck - I like it. Cheers, Stefan

 Speechless! That is over the top good. Humbling good. The midi magic, the vocal performances and the guitar playing are all superb. The guitar reminds us a bit of Seth Walker. The mix sounds perfecto on our monitors and the video? Wow, just too cool. Love those angels and the signs. It will take several watchings to soak all that in. There are enough subtleties in it for several productions! And did you ever nail the timing of everything....watching those horns is mesmerizing. Regrets? Only that it's not also on soundcloud so we can add it to our fav playlist! J&B Edit: We just watched it again on the big screen and saw more signs and the lizard 
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

Hi Stefan,
This is over-the-top fantastic. It's obviously a professionally done project that came out perfectly. Both of your voices are stellar and your guitar playing is so smooth. Nice! Fabulous video and the lyric is perfect for the music.
This shines in every manner a song can shine! I loved it from first note to last note. Standing ovation!
Das ist übertrieben fantastisch. Das ist offensichtlich ein Pro-Projekt, das vollkommen herauskam. Beide Ihrer Stimmen sind stellar, und Ihr Gitarre-Spielen ist so glatt. Fabelhaftes Video und das lyrische sind für die Musik vollkommen.
Das scheint auf jede Weise, die ein Lied polieren kann! Ich liebte es vom ersten Zeichen, um Zeichen zu dauern. Stehapplaus!
Alan

Hi Stefan,
That was an incredible nice, good-sounding and fun experience! A true multimedia performance! I want one of those "fake trombone" lessons, please!
Both of you did a great work on the vocals - and I love the sound and the phrases you got out of that Fender.
You must be a great guy to hang out with as you always seem to be full of fun, imagination and visions!
Thanks for sharing,
Will

J&B Edit: We just watched it again on the big screen and saw more signs and the lizard Hi Janice & Bud, well, well, well, what a review - I'm completely over the moon - thank you sooooooo much !!!! I read your and the following comments just before I was going to bed, but I was so thrilled after reading that it took me hours to finally fall asleep.. But what a great reason that is for getting sleepless. You know that I admire your songs very much and therefor your opinion counts double for me. Well, threefold, no, fourfold... And the idea of beining part of your playlist is so tempting that I uploaded the song to Soundcloud this afternoon: https://soundcloud.com/user-676951310/you-dont-have-to-cry-for-me.I could test it once, but after that Soundcloud seems to have gone down, because I couldn't play any song since then. I have to admit that I haven't upload there much tso far, but now that I'm busy in the forum and everbody uses it I will upload my songs there bit by bit, too. Let me thank you once again for your terrific comments - I do appreciate them so much... Lookning forward to your next song - all the best, Stefan PS: I'm so glad you didnit miss the lizzard... ;-)

Awesome. +100 to all the compliments above.
Fun song, hilarious video. Nice touches, especially flying the angels on trombones in and out of view.
A lot of work, and it shows.

Once again thanks a lot for your very nice remarks. All the best, Stefan Hi Stefan, I was in a very small village called Einsiedlerhof, near Kaiserslautern four years, Pirmasens four years and Veitshoechhoem - near Wurzburg. I enjoyed my time there very much. I have forgotten so much of the language over the years. I left in 1988. Again, your song and video are simply "wunderbar!"

A lot of work, and it shows. Thanks a lot, dcuny, I really appreciate your kind comment. Yeah, it took quite some time to get the whole thing finished, but I wouldn't call it work - can't think of many things I love better than making music and vids. Cheers, Stefan
