Bawb, Stefan, Marty, Dave, musician17, Greg and J&B:

Thanks fo much for the listens on this one. It was a lot of fun to do—something a bit different and certainly challenging. I still haven’t worked up the courage to go back in and try a remix, LOL! But hopefully the few changes I made earlier took some of the brightness out of the original post.

J&B: The number of tracks is a bit deceiving . . . the organ and stonez electric guitar really just make cameos, and of course the clarinet doesn’t come in until the very end (and I think I fade it out early in the outro.

My very best to you each—stay safe, stay well!

Hello Deej66,

Very catchy composition on sentimental lyrics from bygone times. It is pleasant to listen to and your voice is well balanced compared to the musical arrangement.

Best regard

I like this rocker. I thought that the lyrics and the 50's groove worked well together. I liked your vocal, lyrics, backing tracks, and mix.

To nitpick I thought that at times the piano was a tad to loud when you were singing, making it a little difficult to clearly hear you. This is a small nitpick but one IMHO would make this really shine. Regardless this is a really good song.

Definitely a fun old school rocker. You are the creator, the one with the vision. so take the music where you want with the lyrics. It's fun to experiment.

Deej & TM ...

I like it! Indeed, a bit of an unexpected mix of lyric and band ... but very enjoyable. I'm coming late and you've already made some mixing adjustments, so I cannot compare this to the original post. I liked this a lot. Perhaps the piano is a bit too forward but that certainly didn't dilute the listening pleasure.

Two talented song creators and one terrific song. Works for me! I always do a lot of experimenting and have some odd mixes I;ve never posted. But it's a lot of fun cruising the various BIAB hallways to see what's behind the various doors. It's your song ... do it your way!

Wishing you both he very best ... be safe.

Alan

Hi guys, this one seemed to start coming together for me at around 2:00. Deej, you always do a great job with the vocals! Nice collaboration! The fade out was a good choice! Thanks, T

Dero, Alexander, Mario, Ezekial, Al, Torrey and F.M.M.:

Thanks so much for the listens. Really glad you all seemed to enjoy it. As I referenced above, a challenging mix for a guy of my limited talents. Seems the piano being to forward is a common theme I'll have to think about. I knew early on, when I stumbled on the Piano RT for this one, I really wanted it to carry the song and be the centerpiece. Perhaps I clung to that a little too much. At some point, I'll revisit this . . . your feedback is very helpful.

My best to each of you,

Deej
