Dani,
Well done tune! Multi vocal take worked very well with "Oohs Aahs" Got nice 50s love song mood. Liked it!
The only thing, drums sound a bit flat... could it be that your mix is less than 256K? Sometimes I forget to up the bitrate for MP3s and get similar effect... Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Sweet and warm melody, chording and singing, expressing nicely the approaching summer of love. Very catchy and super harmonies, crying for a video full of serene sea scenes Janne

Dani, this is another great "surf" style tune from you. No one here does them as well as you in my opinion! You have the ability to sing in a very wide vocal range and stay on pitch and that's not easy to do! Thanks, Torrey

Hi, Floyd !:))
Thank you for your
most kind words so
very much appreciated !
Now over here I think we should
be able to start easing
some of the Corona-restrictions
maybe sometimes around half of may ?
We, that is me and Li and our families
have so far been well and we do hope
we´ll stay that way too !
Our only regret is that we are not
able to travel to our summer-home
in Spain during summer but who knows
maybe later next fall !
Stay safe !
Cheers
Dani

So smooth, Dani. The voices are right on --wish there was an a capella version. I had a couple listens to see if the drum really does bother me. It does. That snare seems so harsh for this beautiful melody and voices. Great writing. Stay well.

Hi Dani,
Good to see you back here with a new song, it’s been a while I think?
Very nice, I agree with ROG, you are great at this style of music.

Hi Dani ...
You have a signature sound that's immediately recognizable. And it's wonderfully smooth and savvy sound. This is so smooth ... like fine silk. The retro sound is till a winner today. Also, loved the key modulation!
Excellent!
Wishing you the best. Be safe ...
