Noel, it's all been said.
Your lyrics and vocals are spot on and your instrumentation is not only perfect but also mixed perfectly.
Great job on this one.
Hi Mario, I'm grateful that you found time to pop into this thread. It's always a pleasure to have you visit my songs. Thank you for the feedback and the smile that it brought my way. All the best, Noel

Really sweet song!! The birth of a child is the greatest miracle in life. Wonderful celebration of that. Nicely done in every way (production, vocals). The viola is very sweet. Great job!! Take care. Greg

Noel, as you explained the structure is quite different. I picked up on it right away. It works. "As a single form, it would be written as AABACC. It's quite an interesting structure. " Nicely mixed and well sung. Great choice of real tracks. I sincerely hope we hear more writes from you this year. All the best to you, Tom

Hi Noel. You certainly have a smooth voice! I also hear a bit of Ringo and maybe Leonard Cohen in there.
Your productions are always very precisely and beautifully done. Cheers.

Hey Noel,
I'm also picking up a Beatles vibe on this one - loved it! Great vocal, mix and lyrics.

Hi Rec, It's really great that you've jumped into the PG Music forums. I'm thankful that you found time to have a listen to my song. I appreciate the positive feedback. As for my lyrics, I'm only a novice. What ability I might have (luck or otherwise) is largely due to Pat Pattison (a professor at Berklee College in Boston) and to working my way methodically through floyd jane's lyrics when he posts his songs. Pat is a worldwide authority on lyric writing. If you're interested, he has a free 6-week course at... http://www.Coursera.orgSimply type Pat Pattison in the 'search' box and you'll find it. I notice that the next course starts on February 2. You'll find his approach very eye-opening and, as I said, it's completely free.  Once again, thank you! All the best, Noel Wow, thanks Noel. That looks great and perfect timing. I have signed up! I have also picked up on the fact that Floyd is in the top tier for pretty much everything. I didn't really know what to expect in terms of song quality when I joined these forums but have been blown away by the high standards. Certainly a lot to live up to! Thanks again for your continued help and support, Rec

Some of the most important people in my life celebrate a birthday in January. That got me thinking about writing a song...

" Nicely mixed and well sung. Great choice of real tracks. I sincerely hope we hear more writes from you this year. All the best to you, Tom Hey Tommy. I appreciate your vote of confidence in the song! I'm also hoping that this year will be kinder to me on the songwriting front. Last year, it just got a bit difficult to fit everything in. Ahhh well, that happens sometimes. As I mentioned to J&B, I've still got some songs of theirs and yours that I need to comment on. I'm sorry that I'm so very slow. I don't know where the day goes! Your work is on my radar and I will get there. All the best, Noel

Wow, thanks Noel. That looks great and perfect timing.
I have signed up! Hi Rec, I'm pleased to hear that it worked out that way. I haven't done this course but I've been to many weekend workshops with Pat and his understanding of lyric writing is first class. He's also a very entertaining teacher. I hope you learn lots, Noel

Hi Fred,
Thank you for dropping in. I appreciate your time and your positive thoughts.
All the best,
Noel
P.S. You'll pick up a great deal from Pat Pattison. I've found his approach to writing lyrics unparalleled. His books are my number one 'go to' books when I need a creativity boost.

Noel, thanks for sharing.

Hi Fred, Glad that you signed up too. How are you finding the lessons? I really like Pat's delivery. He keeps it interesting without going too fast. I have done 2 of the quizzes which were ok. I'm not sure how the peer review assignments will work yet but maybe we should start a topic about the course on the Off-Topic forum? Thanks again Noel for your tipoff  Rec

Hi Rec and Fred, I'm not sure how the peer review assignments will work My advice is to read the peer reviews, think about what's said and then use your own knowledge and experience to determine if the review is fair and justified. I've found that because 'peers' range from those who are just starting out to those who are professional, the reviews can vary enormously. It's also useful to keep in mind that due to this range of experience, there is occasionally a person whose enthusiasm to comment outweighs his or her understanding of what s/he is commenting on. For this reason, don't take peer reviews to heart if you feel the comments are unjustified. Keep an open mind and you'll learn a lot. Every time Pat comes here to Australia (usually every 12 months), I go along to his seminars. I've stopped counting how many weekend workshops I've been to but it would be around 20. Even now, I'm still learning something new each time I attend. Once again, all the best! Noel

Thanks for the tips Noel. I am not entirely sure how the peer reviews will pan out myself.
Either way, I will take what I can from the course and try to put it to good use.
Thanks
