Man, did you every pack a lot into a bit over two minutes!

The production is excellent and hangs together nicely at a higher volume.

That held bass had our sub walking across the floor smile

We've said this before but you have established a remarkable signature sound.
And what makes it even cooler is that you always vary things up. You never get formulaic.

Great write -- we love this:

"Turned on the morning news
Everything just blows
I’ve been drinking my coffee cold
And I wanted you to know"

The out front (but not too much so) vocal carries everything so well.

Kudos!

I really enjoyed the lyrics! This song overall reminded me a little bit of a song you would sing to someone who had wanderlust and couldn't sleep. Really pretty. grin

Looks like I'm way late for this train.

As Josie said, nice vibe. I remember reading Jimmy Webb talk about some guy who had made fun of his lyrics by reciting them. This is exactly the same sort of thing - I saw the title and my inner critic immediately said How ungrammatical! and my smarter half said It's gonna sound great in context!

Which, of course, it did. laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Bob,

Loved it—really like the “I’ma love u some,” just a nice hook that you accentuate well with the music. A chill tune, with an inviting groove. Enjoyed my listen!

All the best,

Deej

Hello, Bob

The melody of ”I'ma love u some" will not leave my ears.
As Janice & Bud says, you every pack a lot into a bit over two minutes.
But every tunes are so catchy.
And your vocal is very nice as usual.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Wow Bob, we think this is your best so far!
Your vocals are great and the songs relative simplicity is a real strength here.
