Hello, Deej

Welcome to the forum!
Nice and catchy melody with wonderful vocal!
I think that the structure of the song is also done very well.
It reminds me of the music of the British group in the 60's.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

I'm looking forward to your second post!
Best regards.

Well, this simply goes to show that perseverance pays off.

Yes, certainly a Robin Gibb feel to the vocal track. And.... a really good write right out of the box. Yep, I really liked the song and look forward to what your tunes will sound like as you become more accustomed to the software and getting the most from the tracks in your DAW.

Well done.

DJ...I’m another recent discoverer of this forum, and sounds like your BIAB history sort of mirrors mine. As you have discovered, this is just a fantastic place, with warm support and honest constructive critiques, from songwriters and performers that you can’t help but have tremendous respect for. And it will up your game constantly.

Excellent tune, well constructed, artful lyrics. I didn’t think about the drums when I was first listening (if it wasn’t for BIAB I wouldn’t have drums at all because I’m so clueless about them). On a second listen I get the critique. And there’s one tiny example of the power of this forum and family.

Cheers ... Rob

Rsdean, Guitarhacker, and Rob: Thanks for listening and taking the time to comment. Your support is much appreciated.

Guitarhacker: I think it will take me a while to figure the software out, but I'm encourage by this effort. Actually has me thinking of moving from GarageBand to Logic X, but not sure it makes sense at this point given my limited skills.

What think you and others? Worth the investment?

Best regards,

Deej

David, Charlie and Sundance (and another shout out to Samuel):

Thanks for the listen and chiming in. I will play with correcting the over-drumming at some point; as I learn more, hopefully I'll get a little better at those things. But glad you all enjoyed the tune (despite the heavy metal drummer!). Appreciate the support and kind feedback.

My best to you all,

Deej
