T,

A nice first post. A good song. Nice vocals and harmonies.
The tracks are well put together - building at the appropriate spots.

Good pumping rhythm to it. Cool bass. The bits of piano are nice.

Good mix. Catchy! Enjoyed it.

Welcome to the Showcase...

Nice job all the way around. Reminded me of Al Stewart. Great first post. Looking forward to hearing more from you.

Sounds nice! The mix is very nice, and as floyd jane says, the harmonies are quite good.

Solid work all around, and enjoyable listen.

You may not have Al Stewart's voice, but your vocals are pleasant to listen to, and that's all that matters.

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

Cool song, George. Love the harmony. The band sounds really good. Love the piano parts, and that driving bass. The video was really cool, too. Keep 'em coming.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Welcome. This is a fantastic first post. Strong vocal, great backing tracks and a super mix. Excellent harmony and counter point.

This is really a good song!

Hello!

And welcome to the forum. As many have already said, this is a great place to hang out, particularly if you're a musician. You'll get lots of helpful input, if you want it, and a ton of friendly comments from forum members.

I really enjoyed your song. Everything about it lays very nicely in my ears. Good choice of backing tracks, excellent arrangement and a sweet vocal. The vocal harmony is also excellent.

I am primarily a musician and songwriter, but do a little singing when I feel the need to molest the airways.

Hope you stick around and offer some more really nice tunes like this one.

Wishing you the very best ...

Alan

Nice, does have Al Stewart style cadence.
That's not a bad thing as Past Present & Future was a superb LP (tough mostly unknown as it was the one before YOTCat).
Good work.


Cheers
