I'm late to the part and everything that I wanted to say has already been said but I couldn't have sait it any better than Janice & Bud said: ..........
Everything -- absolutely everything - about your production sounds superb on our
monitors. The soundstage is lovely and the vocal sits so nicely. And that midi super
track just nails it (we really like those tracks - so much flexibility in the sound).
You certainly picked a great song for your first post this year.

Really nice balance in the story and fits your voice so well. You have a distinct , singing voice, and a narrator quality in your voice, also. Have you ever done talk shows or radio? Curious. Thanks Andy! I've never done anything like narrating or radio. I'm just your every-day ordinary kind of person. BIAB opened the doors to a whole new world for me. With the program what used to be "impossible" became "I'm possible". All the best, Noel

"Sometimes my legs get weary
And it hurts with every step I take
Sometimes I fall or stumble
But I keep walking, ‘cause that’s the only way"
A terrific start to a "journey" song, Noel. A good write - with your usual positive message...
Well sung and nicely produced. The piano-only start sounds great. The build is nice. The shaker was a clever idea for verse 2. Nice use of BIAB throughout.
Really enjoyed the listen.

Bob

Noel, this sounds really good. Nice pianos. The piano has a mellow acoustic sound that to me is exactly what I like to hear in a piano.
Your vocal sounds good. I thought I was hearing tuning artifacts throughout the vocal track.
Nice job on the composition and writing of the melody and lyrics.
Yep... I enjoyed it.... in fact, it's on the second time through. Thumbs up! Well done.

Just loved this song Noel. The piano was very nice. Vocal and lyric was excellent. Super clear mix... Scott, thanks for that. I fiddled with this mix for around a month before posting. I always find mixing the most challenging bit and, for some unknown reason, this one seemed more challenging than usual. Appreciate the visit. Regards, Noel

Noel,
More great material from you.
The build provides anticipation. The choice of instruments works just so absolutely well. And all the while it is delivered with a really outstanding and interesting set of lyrics.
There was a subtle oriental persuasion within the melody, that I found very appealing.
You obviously went to great lengths to put this together so well. Well done. Thanks Trev. Appreciate your popping in. I'm not sure where the oriental flavour you heard came from. I have been watching a some South Korean dramas recently, though, so maybe that's had an impact without me knowing! All the best, Noel

Hello, Noel
Very beautiful and very positive song!
Conga and Shaker are so effective.
The deceptive cadence before ending you often use is so nice as usual.
As Robert said, this is your best vocal performance.
And as Janice & Bud said, you certainly picked a great song for your first post this year.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

What a beautiful song Noel!
Intelligently arranged with a relatively small set of instruments.
The transformation into the chorus works great.
Nice and melodic all the way, and beautiful lyrics too.
Rob & Anne-Marie Hi Rob and Anne-Marie, Hope all is going well for you both. Thanks for having a listen. Much appreciated. All the best, Noel

What a great song, an enjoyable journey, I like the positive lyrics, beautiful singing and the interesting chord progression.
Janne Noel, I agree with the above and would add that for me this is your best vocal performance. I`m curious about your reasons for choosing the midi piano - it sounds great - over a Real Track? Robert Hi Robert, Thanks for taking the time. Using a MIDI Supertrack gave me a lot more control over the final sound of the piano. Firstly, when the bass guitar plays, there are often bass-note conflicts between piano and bass. I was able to remove all these low frequency problems by simply cutting the bass note from the piano. Also, the MIDI track allowed me to control the piano pedalling in just the way I wanted. All the best, Noel

Thanks for that explanation, Noel- I can hear the clarity in the sound that your choice has made in the music.
