How do you spell smooth? D-A-N-I !!!
Good song and production. I'm sure you'll be as successful writing and singing about 'found' love as you do about 'lost' love when you one day find that 'right' one. I always enjoy your submissions.

Hi Dani,
You are SUCH a romantic!
The instruments are mixed well. The vocal was a bit hard to hear clearly at the beginning - not sure if I could pick out why...

Hi, Floyd !:))
Yes, you are right, I am a romantic
and a big one too !:))(chuckle) !:))
I do not think I have been so
romantic all my life, it is
something that has grown on me
after my hectic work life !
I did try and take up the
lyrics in the beginning, for some
reason it is difficult to
extract the words "a while" !
I tried to do it by increasing
treble a bit and by lowering
the synth during the time those words
are sung !:)) The altered version is
in it´s normal place in the header !
Floyd, thank you for your most kind
words !:))
Cheers
Dani

Another sweet song!! If I heard one of your songs on an acoustic guitar, I would never think to use a pedal steel but it works very well. I always enjoy your songs for their sentiment and spirituality. And as you know I like the retro sound! Vocals are sweet as usual. Keep em coming-I`ll always be listening. Take care. Greg

Hi Dani,
And old friend of mine once wrote the following sentence in one of his lyrics:
'the perfect song is never really sung'
But that doesn't keep us from trying does it?
Your attempts are getting better and better, and yes like Floyd said:
you're a true romantic!
Very nice, looking forward to the next one!
Regards,
Rob

Hi, Greg !
Thank you for your most kind
comments ! :)) made me feel good !:))
The pedal, yes, it had to be dimmed
in a few spots not to override the
chords but I think I managed to
fix it ok. Retro, yes, I guess
I am a retro guy so the sound
I produce is retro too (chuckle) !:))
Cheers
Dani

Hey Dani,
"Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs and what's wrong with that, I'd like to know 'cause here I go again..." (quote from Sir Paul's Silly Love Songs lyrics).
I always enjoy going where that romantic heart of yours takes me in your songs. Nice big smooth sounding production on this one too.
Josie

Hi, Josie !
Thank you so much for your
most kind words ! Maybe Sir Paul
is right, maybe this really is
silly ? The problem is that
I write the way I feel and
if it makes me silly I guess it´s okay with me ! (chuckle) !
I am old enough to make a fool of
myself without being afraid of
making a fool of myself !:)) (giggle) !:))
Cheers
Dani

Hi Dani,
I just realised that I haven't yet heard this one! You're a such a productive songwriter that it's hard for me to keep up!!!
There's nothing wrong with writing a good, old-fashioned love song. It's what makes the world go around. I always enjoy your music. Always.
A great listen,
Noel
