Link to song on SoundCloud Standing with her today Words and Music by Troy Schiewe Copyright 2020 As she walks you can see she is smiling As she walks you can see it in her eyes As she walks thinking of another As she walks my memory just dies As they stand belonging to one another As they stand for the rest of thier lives As they stand taking their vows together As they stand her love for me has died And if I had a chance to do it over I'd said the things she needed me to say And if I had took the time to think it over I'd be standing with her today I've so many regrets Can not get them off my mind I just can't seem to forget Had I been different she'd be mine Thru the years they'll be good to one another Thru the years my memories be kind Thru the years I'll often think about her Thru the years my love for her won't die And if I had a chance to do it over I'd said the things she needed me to say And if I had took the time to think it over I'd be standing with her today I'd be standing with her today

I remember Paul McCartney saying he couldn't sing in same keys as he used to. This is truly a great song and your vocal sounds fine. I really enjoyed this song and look forward to hearing more from you.

But it was those lyrics that took it over the top for me. What a fantastic song. You should be very proud of this one! I arrived early to a restaurant. The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?" I said no. "Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3" 64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

This is classic country, well-executed and well sung. I really like the structure of the lyrics: “As she walks,” “As they stand,” and “Thru the years”. And the hook on the chorus is compelling, with some sweet harmonies. Really well done! Enjoyed my listen. Oh, and love that baritone guitar solo! Best regards, Deej

No issues with plosives, sibilance or the other usual bugbears. The Voicelive 2 work is excellent - a really good demo of it in fact. Loved it.

I love how well it flows, and found it nicely catchy as well. Nothing like a good old fashion classic country tune Thanks for sharing! Cheers, Deryk
