Enjoyed it a lot, liked the switch from pessimism to optimism and what it did for the song. The doubled vocal made it a bit harder for me to understand the lyrics. Great job overall.

Well done all around. Very enjoyable...

Thanks floyd - it was a happy accident built around a slide lick.

Interesting mix of cheerful poppy melody with very dark lyric in verses and positive message in chorus. Overall, leaves a happy smile on the listener's face. The band is enjoyable, the flute (or calliope?) sounds great and the lead guitar has nice Harrison vibe.

An excellent vocal and inspired arrangement.

Peter / Leon,

This sounds like a long-lost song off a late period Beatles album.

Great guitar work, track and very cool Ringo-like vocal.

Much enjoyed!

Yes, I can hear the George influence in that lick. Always loved his slide playing, very underrated guitarist IMHO.

Nice vocal and lyrics from Leon.

Good song guys, enjoyed the listen!


Thanks Dave appreciate the comments.

Beatlesque, Peteresque & Leonesque...whatever it's super cool.

We agree with Dave regarding George being under rated and his
slide playing is unique which you well captured. And the sitar
addition iced the cake.

Hey, y'all sang it well too!

About the technology -- some how "every time the cell phone
vibrates" just doesn't sing well smile




Janice & Bud
Thanks for that I'm sure Leon will appreciate his vocal being referred to as Leonesque. Thanks for the review.

Thanks Torrey. It was a nice happy accident.

Love the slide. Yes--very Harrison. I love the ending sitar chord.


Thanks a lot appreciated.

Hello Peter and Leon,

Almost everybody mentioned your Beatle-ish style, and I'm no exception on that.
There are many instruments involved and that gave a lot of joy to the song, although the lyrics tell something else.
You made a very cool song with this one, My compliments!

Hans

“I must’ve been born under a bad sign
It was always raining in my heart
Even though my eyes were wide open
Seemed like I was stumbling in the dark”

So, we were listening to Albert King sing Born Under A Bad Sign, got reminded of y’all’s tune and had to return for another listen and check out that line.

Fun again!

Peter and Leon ...

Loved it! You two gentlemen put out some terrific music that's so much fun to listen to. I agree with Floyd about the Ringo analogy with Harrison on guitar. That was a real sweet listen! Great stuff! Wishing you both the very best ...

A fun tune!! I like the light-hearted feel of the music which makes a great match for the darker lyric. Immediately thought of George when I heard the guitar! Nicely done guys!! Take care. Greg
