Hi Mike,
Thank you for the welcome back! It's great to be here again. Thank you also for the positive feedback. I know Brenda will be smiling when she reads it (just as I am now).
All the best, Noel

Noel,
Delightful song and well sung. I could see Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers floating around the ballroom floor in their tux and gown making go-go eyes to each other.
May I ask why you classified the song as "tin pan alley"? My thought is the song is more of a ballroom standard.
Anyhow, I can't wait to hear how the song sounds on my stereo tonight. Perhaps the song will encourage my better half to dance with me in the moonlight!

Noel, An excellent write! Your songs are so consistently you. Nobody does the tin pan alley / Broadway thing like you do! I really enjoyed it! On the mix/production aspect... everything seems great, except it's pretty bass heavy on my system. Could just be my system. ![grin grin](/forums/images/graemlins/default/grin.gif) Great Job! Greg

Hi Jim,
I actually wondered about using the descriptor "Tin Pan Alley". It's clever that you picked up on that!
Interestingly, there's a great deal written about Tin Pan Alley, and an equally great deal of disagreement as to what period(s) and styles of music are covered by Tin Pan Alley (TPA). All seem to agree that the standards written in the 20s and 30s (Over The Rainbow, When You Wish Upon A Star, Ira and George Gershwin songs, Rodgers and Hart songs, etc.) are part of the TPA days.
My favoured reference book is one called "The Poets Of Tin Pan Alley". It's written by Philip Furia, an English Literature professor, and makes for excellent reading. Furia argues that TPA (as a broader concept) had its beginning in the early 1900s and lasted through until the 1950s. I thought, rightly or wrongly, that since the style of "Anything Can Happen" could fit within this range, TPA was ok.
By the way, did you and your wife dance in the moonlight?
Thank you again for listening and for taking the time to give feedback.
All the best, Noel

Hey Greg,
It's always a pleasure to see you.
Thank you for dropping in and having a listen. Much appreciated. I'll go back and have a listen to the bass. That's always the track I find hardest to balance in the mix. Thanks for drawing it to my attention.
Best wishes, Noel
