Thanks for commenting (and love the Mr. Magoo!)
Yeah, it's ironic that I wrote a tune that is not necessarily the best for my voice. In theory, my range is sufficient for this tune. But here's the deal: If I want to sing with more resonance and volume, I can throughout the entire range, but, if I want to sing softly and more emotively, there is a spot in which my voice breaks when shifting registers. I had worked through it some time back with a vocal instructor, when I was giggin' more, but without the gigging and singing more, my transitions between registers has suffered. This song, the way written is a little over an octave and a half. I could do the entire song in one octave, but then it loses dynamics in my opinion. Depending on the time of day and how much I'm practicing, I might find something a wee bit more comfy. The beauty of BIAB is that playing with new keys is really easy to do. This key was the best combo for me thus far.
Great question, thanks for asking and thanks for listening!
Sorry about putting the melody in your mind...
Not really ;-)

Plish,
What an nice song, and I agree with the Willie Nelson vibe.
Acid Pro eh, I have Acid 6 sitting all forlorn on my computer and I am going to experiment with splicing and dicing now. May take me a while tho' to achieve your standard!!!
thoroughly enjoyed
Alyn

Hi Alyn, Thanks for listening and the kind words.
Yeah, I find Acid a really nice fit for BIAB because of its ability to slice, dice, stretch, etc. Have fun!!!
Thanks again!

Hi Mike,
Nothing like a good country waltz! When I lived in San Antonio back in the 79's, we played songs like this ad nauseum! But you rarely hear songs like this these days. This is nice refresher!
And this is better than the danged song that's been playing in my head the past week. So thank you for this worthyu replacement!
Alan
PS: The song that's been playing in my mind is a Christmas song, of all things ... "Deck the Halls". No idea why that one ... ???? Ha!

Hello plish,
Very nice song! I take it that was quite some work to get everything in the right rhythm.
Nicely sung and with emotion.
Regards,
Rob

Plish,
Very nice tune. I really like the arrangement.
Thanks for sharing.
I was wondering if you've heard from her. I sure hope she appreciated having a song written for her.

Hi Alan! Appreciate the kind words and glad I could displace "Deck the Halls", at least for a while ;-)
All the best!!

Hi Rob! Yeah, it was tedious at times - I would splice and bring things together and then eliminate stuff to create more space. Amazing what havoc a missing quarter note can create in a measure  Appreciate the kudos!! All the best!

Hi SD!
Actually no. We lost track of each other for many years. I did recently find her - she's still in Texas. I need to reconnect and send the song her way - I'm sure she'd get a kick out of it!
Thanks again for listening and the kudos!
~peace~

Hi Michael,
What a very clever idea to write a song based around a pun on the word/name Melody! A touch of songwriting genius in my book. I'd love to be able to come up with hooks like that but all I can do is admire from afar. I'm impressed.
I have to say that I'm a fan of the way you've assembled this waltz. You've done a great job. Kudos to you!
Regards,
Noel
