Hey David ...

You have no idea how much your absence has been noticed. That's a really tough void to fill. Well, actually, it just can't be filled. SOOOO glad you are back.

So, what's wrong with Rock N Roll? Not much ... especially when you're the driving force behind it.

Passionate, strong and actually says something ... not just a bunch of words.

Cool ... really cool!

Take care and be safe ...

Alan

PS: Di says "Hello, David!"

Hi David,

To speak with the words of most of the posters; glad you are back! We didn't know what to do without your inspiring songs. We did our best of course, but still... You almost hear the prayers to get you back on the Forum. And there you are! I hope you have time now to continue your presence here long after that virus is vanished, maybe it will in a short time miraculously!

But about your song; I really liked it. It has much power in it. The lyrics are very good and so is your composition. I was just wondering why you sang it alone? I mean, no doubles or harmonies. If it was my song the chorusses were filled with harmonies. But maybe that's exactly why you don't do it ;-)

Stay safe too,
Hans

I'm glad that you are back my friend.

Great lyrics and vocal backed by a strong band.

FYI - if you start running out of room on soundcloud just delete some of your old songs. That gives you more room to add new songs.

Welcome back, stranger!

Rock and roll is OK, thank you very much. smile

It seems appropriate that you've written the lyrics in ALL CAPS because that's how you've sung it.

The nice thing about getting a review in late is I can just say "Yeah, what fj said!

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

David, you are a beautiful combination of Dylan and Springsteen! I have voiced more than once in my posts that you have been missed here! It's wonderful to hear you again with this beautiful tune! The chorus is great! Vocal is as well! Don't go away like you did again....I'm hoping to get an amen or two from the congregation here! Keep sharing your brilliant musical mind here please! Thanks, Torrey

David Snyder (also known as your clever pen name "Dee Snider" of the band Twister Sister) it's great to see this posted!

You know, I see your name and immediately think "this will be good." You never let down.

A really good write delivered really well!

Thanks for sharing it; and I'll be waiting for the next.

Great to see you here again. smile

As with much of what David Snyder produces, there is a message here with respect to technique. I was fortunate to discover Aussie voice coach, Dr. Dan, on You Tube and worked with his lessons over the past 8-9 months. The voice, Dr. Dan teaches, may be taken as four components: 1) Air (The Engine,) 2) the Sound Maker (Larynx,) 3) The Enhancer (Throat and Chest,) and 4) Articulation (That which enunciates. I'm not really doing justice to Dr. Dan's science and terminology, here. For that, we'd have to go to his channel. The point is, singing requires a practiced coordination of these elements. That's what Dan teaches.
What I noticed and why I am posting this is David Snyder's remarkable ability to impart a high degree of expression to his voice while maintaining perfect elocution. This is a rare gift and quite appreciated.
