Hello, Robert Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment. I am really glad you like this tune. Yes, Noel's lyrics are really beautiful and fragile. I was given a great inspiration by them. I am always very encouraged by your nice words. This song is a folk song style, but the chord progression is commonly used in American standard songs. Maybe that is the reason it sound like a song you have heard and loved from way back. I put the music sheet of this song at the link below. If you are interested, please have a look. https://www.dropbox.com/s/7d3qrxhcp2del4o/Deciduous%20Love.pdf?dl=0Best regards. Shigeki Adachi

Hello, rayc
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I much appreciate your compliments "Gorgeous lyrics wonderfully interpreted in melody."
I am really glad you like this tune.
After I carefully listened to this mix, certainly t and s sound clicky and essy. I will try to insert DeEsser into the vocal track once.
Thank you for your precious opinion.
Best regards.

Hello, Noel
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am really glad you like this tune.
I am always very encouraged by your nice words.
Your lyrics are really beautiful and fragile.
I was given a great inspiration by them.
I thank a lot to your lyrics for the birth of this song.
I use Avanna (Vocalic 3) in "Vocaloid 4 editor for Cubase" instead of "Vocaloid 4 editor".
In Cubase, Vocaloid 4 editor for Cubase can be used as a VST instrument plug-in, and all edits in Cubase are reflected in Vocaloid 4 editor directly.
I strongly recommend Vocaloid 4 editor for Cubase.
If you buy Vocaloid 4 editor for Cubase, Cubase AI, a simplified version of Cubase, can be obtained for free.
Even the simplified version can use all the owned VST plugins.
As Editing vocaloid track and other tracks can be done at the same time, the production process is very smooth.
Thank you again for you comment.
I am very happy to have a nice collaboration with you.
All the best,
Shigeki Adachi

Wow!! Awesome collaboration!! Masterful blending of Noel’s haunting lyric with a wonderful musical treatment. So challenging to work with a sophisticated key word like “deciduous”, on both fronts—lyrically and melodically. The result is quite beautiful. The use of the dual style is very imaginative, getting exactly the right feel across. I will be listening to this again to see what I can learn from these two masters!!

Shigeki Adachi.
This is outstanding!
Your melody is a PERFECT match for Noel's lyric.
You really "brought it alive".
I am extremely impressed at your ability to get the lyric rhythm and cadence so appropriate, so engaging. That is strong song-sense - not to mention good use of English in a lyric.
The vocaloid is amazing. The phrasing is "human-like". Impressive.
This sounds like a classic song - like it has been around for many years...like "Autumn Leaves" or "When I was Seventeen". Truly impressive.
An amazing combination of RealTracks! Excellent mix.
I am blown away by how very talented you are.
Noel's lyric and your melody and arrangement/production have combined to create magic.
fj
+1! My sentiments exactly!

Animaro,
Well, if Noel was laying out some challenge to any and all, you can pretty much drop the mic. You killed this. I have no idea how folks come up with a melody to someone else’s lyric, yet alone make it sound as beautiful as this. This deserves a ton of listens; it’s so, so well done!
My humble regards,
Deej

Hello, Tom
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am always very encouraged by your nice words.
I am really glad you like this tune.
You're right. When reading Noel's lyrics, the melody of "deciduous love" first came up.
Best regards.

Hello, Deej
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am very encouraged by your nice words.
I am really glad you like this tune.
I think that experiences in writing songs to some extent are necessary to put music on the lyrics written by others.
I have been writing songs since junior high school, but it has been about these10 years since I myself can write songs after lyrics.
Best regards.
