Hi Torrey, Ray and Dave,

Dave, thanks for listening again and your final conclusion.

Torrey, From John Lennon to Al Steward... I'm getting confused but also honored with these comparisons and I like cats! so thanks a lot.

And Ray, I like the way you started your post. It's a very nice line. One I can use in another song. But the following two lines were also very instructive. I think you're right about the first one, and I'm still hesitating about the second one. I tried singing softer at the beginning, but then one can easely mis what the line is about (ok, they can read the lyrics, but still...)
And the lines following made me shine. But Loosing is also the opposite of winning or gaining succes. Like in 'looser'. There is a president who's using this very much in his tweets.

But thank you all and have a very nice weekend,
Hans Lennon-Steward

Nicely done! I really like the feel of the music, and you have a really cool voice.....comes across very well, and is nicely processed. I also like the sentiment of the tune. Nice job!! Take care. Greg

"There is a message in it, but that's the problem with most of my songs. It's a habit, I'm afraid."

What problem? I hear no problems.

I really like your backing tracks! Super blend. Your vocal was outstanding as was your lyrics.

You should post more often!

You have a great sound, there, Hans. The distinctive vocal delivery is fabulous, though with my aging ears and cheapskate's studio monitor there were a few syllables I had to strain to make out. Other lines were crystal clear, so, go figure. Instrumentation was up to the same quality as the voice. Go, Hans!

As floyd said it is a big sound. We cranked it up loud and it all held together quite well. Nice mix and vocal.

Kudos!!

What Janice & Bud said. Big song, big message, big listen. Loved the drum track - profound yet not overbearing. Nicely done!

Hi Kenny, Greg, Mario, Ed and Alan (and all other readers),

Thanks for your compliments about the voice, the song, the drums and the lyrics!
I enjoyed reading your posts.
Kenny, you also heard that 'Lennon-sound'. I didn't (yet), but it's works good on my ego ;-)

Greg, Thanks for calling it a 'cool' voice. Did my best on the mike. Misha and Ray gave me hints that worked out well.

Mario, thanks man, I will post more. I promise! Maybe this weekend, cause I'm mastering a song now. It's about my son wanting to go to Mexico because he fell in love.... Watch this forum for my post!

Ed, I'm sorry not all my words could be clearly heard. I know this happens to me. It's probably the way I sing. Now I'm working with two mikes to get a more clear sound. And I practise on my pronunciation. But a lot of songs also have that problem. Example: 'I gotta get a message to you', from the BeeGees. I thought they sang "Oh Lord", but it was "Hold on". So I sang it wrong al that time.

And Alan, Thans for that drum-compliment. I like working with 'fat' drums because they give a nice tough to the song.

A nice weekend to you all,
Hans
