Very cool gospel song with great vocal!
I heard wah wah pedal steel for the first time.
Tight bass drums and the background vocals are pleasant.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Thanks Shigeki. Tom's amazing on that steel!

I'm late to the party and everything that I wanted to say has already been said so all that I can add is This is a keeper for sure.

You should be extremely proud of this one.

Great write and great vocal from Janice, man, when those background vocals come in!!! Pure heaven.

Excellent collaboration, very much enjoyed!


This might have been their first collab and it showed us all how well things were gonna click. Tom's guitar / steel and those choir loops just nailed the tune. Glad you liked it. I was pleased to have played the tiny role of engineering the vocal smile really.

Lapsteel is one of my favourite instruments - this is the first time I`ve heard it used with wah wah and it sounds great!
Lovely soulful vocal by Janice.
The background southern church music video is amazing.

Robert


Thanks for mentioning the sacred steel video - it is amazing indeed. I remain appreciative of Tom making me aware of that tradition.

And not to change it, but I really think (as has been suggested) it should be titled "Angel Flying Next To Me".

Great song and Janice' voice is perfect on it.


Thanks and we appreciate you listening!

I played with a steel guitar player in the 1980's that came from a southern blues kinda background and he was really good at turning an OD pedal on and wailin' on some slide licks.... He's gone now, but that sure took me right back to him. Thanks for that Tom.

Great job all around!

Thank y'all so much!

Super song, Super vocals ( really looooved those gospel like harmonies)
and man Tom has outdone himself this time, great guitar work.
The video fits the mood perfectly.

Hi, Ms. Janice; hello, Bud...

"Missed the Message" is instantly inspiring, and in more than ways than one.

The laid-back tempo of the music, the placid chord changes, along with Ms. Janice's vocal a-lighting on the instrumentals like a dove retrieving an olive branch from the water's surface, all combines to create a powerful and persistent image of the river evoked in the lyrics.

At song's end, the impression is timeless, and the tone is melancholy, yet hopeful.

"Missed the Message"? Nah, I don't think so! More like you passed it on to us...

I think springtime is having a very creative impact on members of the User's Forum!

Sincerely,

LOREN (a.k.a. "bluage")

The choir loops - nice. Nice video, Bud (as always).

Y'all done good.

Ditto!! This is killer!!! If I were promoting BIAB, I would probably use this song to show how great it can do, of course in combination with some wonderfully talented musicians. Great stuff!!! Take care. Greg
