What a lovely song. It's perfect for the Eclipse, and a really neat way to capture the experience.

We didn't have a total eclipse here on the island, but we still got some really cool shadows, and the outside world had such eerie lighting!



Great job!


Cheers,
Ember

Thanks for listening and commenting. The song will make a nice memory for me and my wife.

BC is a beautiful place. Glad you were able to see part of the event.

Great!

We enjoyed everything about it. Nice write, performance and arrangement. Cool drums...never listened to that RD

We had 97% of the eclipse at our home. Should have driven 80 miles for the entire experience but it was exciting watching our woods somewaht darken.

Thanks for sharing!

Clever set of lyrics, SD.

Very well presented.

Harmonies gave fullness and richness.

Excellent. Everything about this is spot on.

I think this is your best to date. Your vocals and lyrics are super!

Great backing tracks also!

Thanks. Those Timpanis weren't a RealDrum track. They were actually in the orchestral midi drumkit on my Cassio keyboard. When a play the song on piano a use a low D, G in that spot but the Timpani synth only went down to G. I understand real Timpanis go down to low C. They might be too heavy to get down the stairs into my basement studio.

Glad you liked it.

Thanks. I'm not a perfectionist, obviously, but I do worry about the mixing every time. It's such an alien art-form for me. Thanks for listening.

I'm so glad you got to hear this one. I always love to hear from you. Of all the hundreds of great songs we have here on the Forum your song "It is what it is" is my #1 earworm.

I'm so glad you liked it. You raised an important point. Songs need to be sung with emotion if they are to evoke an emotional response. Nice to know it hit the mark

Also, Thank you PGM for putting this song on the "Hot Topics" list.

Thanks for your kind comments. I used the TC Helicon harmonies in RealBand. I was going to sing the harmonies myself but thought better of it.
