Killer!! Like Floyd said, a big sound, and indeed an ear worm (a very pleasant one!). I am quite a fan of ales myself (had a few last night). Congrats on the contest! A really cool song!! Take care. Greg Thanks Greg for your positive words  Enjoy your ales and write more of your beautiful tunes  Janne

Great big sound on this Janne! Sounds great. I bet this would make a great drinking song. Wait, it already is a great drinking song!. Thanks David for your kind words, getting positive feedback for big sound from you is a true compliment Janne

Okay, this was really entertaining to listen to. Is it wrong of me to say that? Thanks so much for sharing! Thanks Ember for your nice words Surely it's ok to say that, even without drinking a beer  Janne

Nice drinking song!
I agree with floyd.
The mix of instruments creates a huge sound - perfect for the crowd-pleasing-drinking song.
You say "Maybe I stole the chorus melody from someone, who knows?"
But I don't think so at all.
This is your melody.
Your signature is in it.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki Adachi, I appreciate your kind feedback glad to hear you think it is my melody, I've been hoping it's original just like Paul McCartney's Yesterday Janne

Janne, this is so creative, and I love the backstory...parts of this made me think that maybe I have sounded exactly like this (la-la, pub, pub..) the few times I got sloppy drunk in my youth...but I was never able to convert my drunken babblings into something creative, funny, artistic, memorable as this!!
Great idea converted into musical art!

Love the back story on this one. I have never had anything useful come to me in dreams so I envy anyone who can wake up and write a song based on their dreams.
Thanks Joanne for your kind words Dreams have been very good source of melodies for me, the problem is to remember them in the morning... in this case it insistently wanted to be remembered JAnne

Janne,
This was one of the most hypnotic musical rides I've ever been on. The ambience you created was outstanding. Words and phrases that came to mind as I listened were: inventive, creative, very skillful production, clever writing, Janne just keeps getting better and better, what a great journey.
This is definitely one to be proud of!
All the best,
Noel
