Hans, I barely found your tune! 4th page. Either time flies faster than I though it does or there is a wave of creative people coming in, which is a good thing. Hope you received a good dose of sun and tequila on your trip. Your new tune is is excellent, for the reason that I believe it sounds sincere, judging by the drive and translation. Cool vocal doubling. Nice work in fusing acoustic and electronic instruments together. Mix is one of your best. Believe it or not, no complains this time  Thank you for sharing. Misha.

I too enjoy hearing the song in Dutch; it conveys the emotion of the song without even needing to read the English translation. Excellent instrumentation, singing, and harmony.

This one slipped by me Hans. Lovely song. Super vocal. While I did not understand the lyrics I did understand the feeling and heart you put into the song. Music is truly a universal language. Well done Hi Scott, yes, I also think we can better have music than some other stuff that's going around. Thanks for your compliments! "I got older, lost many dreams
Because real life really had come
Still I am a fan of adventure books
And wish I am there too "
In any language that is a very nice sentiment.
We just came inside from a walk in our forest looking at
fall leaves and this song is the first one we have
listened to. The woods were pretty as is this song.
We like everything about it. Your lead and harmonies vocals
are excellent as is the band and the mix. We, as you know,
love the blues but you turned this into something special
without the blues idea you began with.
We don't speak a syllable of Dutch but it is a lovely language
in sound.
Enjoyed it!

Hi Janice and Bud, In a nutshell; a forest allways is nice, in whatever season you wander through it. I now just did the same as you (wandering through the woods), only I listened to another song I now made (in English). In that one I imagined I was a god looking at my creation (Earth). But back to this one, it has some autobiocrafic things in it and you picked out that one about the book. I had to smile for this reason and was thinking at the same time of something else; that John Lennon vocal. Have you heard it? Thanks for your nice comment! Hans

Hi Misha, I thought you didn't like the song and kept silent. But I'm glad I had this wrong. And I am more than happy with your comment on it. Especially that you had no complains! I agree with you there are more and more good musicians nowadays on the forum. Before you know it you are on page 10 or so. Very good you could find me. I still have to figure out how to do that. But thanks a lot for your comment! As many have noted, we enjoy your Dutch singing a great deal. You supply lyrics so we have all we need to appreciate it. Very good song and lyrics, sung well! Keep it up! Hi TuneMonger, as you also complimented me with me singing in Dutch I ask myself what to do now; continue singing in Dutch or in English as well? It's much easier making Dutch lyrics than English ones, but singing in Dutch is more difficult. Everyone is used to English songs and I sang them all my life (with or without mistakes). So my next song will be in Eglish again.../ Really like the melody and the feel of the music!! Nicely done Hans!! Take care. Greg Hi Greg, thanks for this comment. Appreciate yor words! I too enjoy hearing the song in Dutch; it conveys the emotion of the song without even needing to read the English translation. Excellent instrumentation, singing, and harmony. Hello Ezekiel, it is a nice feeling and thought to know that people like to listen to your language and 'understood' the emotion. Like that, thanks! I wish you all a nice weekend, Hans
