Wow... this is really well done. Right from the start it grabbed me.
Nice mix, and the vox are also nicely done. Sweet harmonies.... yeah.
Dusty sings well.
The next song started to play. It's also a good listen. More than ever.

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.

I'm really enjoying this, esp. with the harmony/backup singing.

Hey guys, thanks for the listens! Dusty really does rock the vocals, and arranged all the harmonies and background vocals as well. So talented...

Very entertaining! and really well put together. You've both done a great job. Biglad said "Quality" and I totally agree. That single word seems to say so much.

Biglad, Noel, THANK YOU for the comments...so encouraging! "Please more" is very flattering. Will certainly do just that.  Since you're from England/Australia...I'll add that my spouse is an expat Brit. Draw your own conclusions.

Thx Scott! Think the vocals do really shine over the backing track.

This is a fantastic pop rock tune, great catchy melody and moody lyrics, perfect vocals and harmony, super arrangement and mixing. I would say a really classic pop song somewhere between CCR and Crowded House. I just can't stop listening to this, really makes me feel good.

Thanks Bob! When I see a song wandering past the 4:00 mark I always worry if it will sustain interest. So nice to hear that this one does. Ron,

Hey Ron, I also got some real Creedence vibes from this! I love the vocal harmonies you do. Really effective at highlighting different lines.

Thanks for the listens! Dusty really destroys the vocals, and his harmonies puts it into another gear. Makes the song really shine.
