Here is my first song of 2015, just finished writing it today. All the tracks are Band in a box. Feedback is welcome and appreciated! It is Bass, Drums, Mandolin, Fiddle, Finger gtr, Strum Gtr, and synth. Peace
My TunesPsalm 57:7 My heart, O God, is steadfast, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music.

Pretty song! Very meditative feeling. I think the vocals and arrangement worked very well. A little reverb may have sweetened it a bit. Great job! Take care. Greg

Nice song and nice vocals. A suggestion for this genre is harmony and bG vocals. There is such a great opportunity when you are singing "Peace" phrase. Backing vocals modulating the word would sound like angels.
I enjoyed the post.

Thanks for the responses and tips, I do plan on revisiting this song later; so I will put the tips to good use and any other suggestions you fine folks might have. I do plan on resinging it as my voice was tired by the time i got to the final take. I don't do overdubs so sometimes by the time I get a song done mistake free lyrically, my voice is like a gravel pit; LOL. Thanks again!

Peace, indeed. Thanks for giving us the chance to reflect on it...something that should happen much more. As Greg said, "meditative."
Very nice.

Nice match between the lyrics and the music.
Like Charlie suggested, it would be awesome to hear a group of people (or vocal doubles) coming in on the chorus.

Good one, Robert. A good write. I would agree with the bgv ideas and a touch more reverb. - fj

You write some beautiful songs, and sing them well and with feeling.
I agree a bit more reverb on the vocals but the song is a joy to listen to.
All the best for the New year

Hi Robert,
A very pleasant listen. "Meditative" is definitely the right word for describing this song. I agree with Greg.
Happy New Year, Noel

Hey PG,
Nice job, and your title matches Horace Silver's classic tune - also called Peace. I think I'll do that one soon. Really gorgeous tune.
Thanks for an enjoyable listen.

Wow.... that is the closest Neil Young vocal I have heard that wasn't Mr Young's.
I like old Neil...... This could have come straight from one of his earlier acoustic albums.....
good job on this.
I think the vocal should have been louder so when you work on this again, bump it up.... especially in the lower vocal registers.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
