Hi Alain & Di,
I'm not a specialist in this style but it's very pleasant and Di's lovely voice lends itself wonderfully to the lyrics. I appreciated.

Hi Alan and Di,
Great to see you with a new post, Alan!
And especially nice to hear Di do her thing. Love her tone, and that really fast vibrato she has, very cool.
Great track, nice groove and well mixed.
Enjoyed!
All the best to the both of you.
Hi DFave ... Well, thank you so much! Di enjoyed reading your comments - as did I. It put a smile on her face! Thanks for all the great words. We appreciate it! Alan

Alan,
Wow! Di is such an amazing singer.
This song showcases all of her best vocal qualities. Really outstanding stuff...
I think this is just great - love it.
Bob HI Bob ... You are much too kind! We certainly appreciate such encouraging comments. Di is very sad she can no longer sing as she once did. Again, many thanks ... Alan

Hi Alan,
That was a nice remix of that song. and what nice that I could hear Di singing.
In the past you wrote she sang, but i never heard it. Well, she really had/has a amazing voice.
And therefore this remix can be seen as a statue for her as well (I would say).
Google translate couldn't translate the 'cheesy' line, so I'm still searching on the internet for an explanation ;-)
I also have the opportunity to master my songs on Soundcloud (4 songs free per month). I tried some, but changed them for my own mastering.
Except for one song (Emily). I didn't like the result so much. But maybe that can change
Will you say 'Hi' to Di in return?
Hans
Han ... Nice of you to drop in for a listen. DI and I were thrilled to read your comments. That was very nice of you. The word "cheesy" is an American slang term for something that is a bit hokey. Kind of silly and not done with any amount of sophistication. Again, thank you for the kind comments. Alan

This is absolutely incredible. No hyperbole. Blooming wow.
Your wife could really, really sing. Wow. What a voice. Nothing superfluous, every inflection that needs to be there is there. Superb.
Not much to say. I just sat back and enjoyed. Bravi, the two of you. Exactly what I needed tonight - once more, from you. Can't praise it enough. Hello James ... I always look forward to your encouraging comments. And, as always, you put a smile on my face. Di's face, too! And yes, her voice is pure gold, in my estimation - trying not to be too biased. Many thanks, my friend! Alan

Cheesy? No.
A nice love song? Yes
We love the entire band but the standouts are Di's vocal (obviously) and the flute.
She delivers the perfect vocal for the bossa groove and you mixed it to perfection.
A big ole fashioned, AWESOME!
J&B
HI Janice & Bud ... Those very kind words warmed our hearts. AT first, I wasn't extremely happy with the flute - refreshed it countless times. But, the more I listened this particular rendition, the more I liked it. Your kindness and generosity with alwats touch us in a good way. Thank you so much. ALan

Glad to see you back!
A beauty. Love Bossa! Absolutely stunning vocals by Di. Some unusual and interesting key changes for the genre, which makes stand out. Arrangement and mix is pro level. Listens very well. Enjoyed it a lot. Thank you for sharing and best to you and Di.

Al and Di, what a great song. Before hearing your song, I would have said "I'm just sitting at my computer." Will listening to your song, I'm sorry, but ya can't help but move! What a great feel! The instruments sound so real, I can't picture someone pushing a button to generate them. In fact, I had to go back and see if RealTracks had a flute, or if someone had played that for your recording. How cool is that? Di-loved the vocal. It was absolutely perfect for this song! Big love to that! And..."hi" back to you!  Al-It may have taken a little finessing, but I know you know this, many songs you have to do something  . I think it's so cool you you had the skills to be able to work with it like you did. I thought the mastering sound good too. Loves me that bass! For this style, it HAS to be represented. And it was! All the way around a really fun listen that honored the genre so well. Thanks for the late morning workout! Hi Aaron ... Well, we're not sure how to reply to such glowing comments! You're a knowledgeable music artisan and your words strike a good place in our hearts. You are much too kind. But we sure do appreciate it! Alan

Dear Di, dear Alan,
what a most touching idea... it's so beautiful !!!
What a nice song - love those chord progressions in the chorus part. Very well re-built, Alan - nobody could ever imagine that this wasn't the original version.
Di, your voice is absolutely gorgeous and your phrasing is second to none - just sublime.
I would like to hear more of your 'old stuff' - it's been such a treat to listen to.
What a crying shame, what an immense loss, dear Di, that your health issues prevent you from singing these days.
Please stay safe and take good care of each other,
Stefan Stefan Because of the friendship Di and I have enjoyed with you and Maha, we always look forward with anticipation for your thoughts and comments. And you are so very nice with your words! Redoing this with BIAB wasn't as difficult as I thought would be. It took me about 8 - 10 hours from beginning to finished and posted. It's a little different from the original, but we like it even more. We hope you and Maha are doping well. We know she is facing some serious issues and how it affects you. We think of you guys every day. And you, too - take care of each other. Alan & Di

Di and Alan.
Now that I know a little of your recent trials and tribulations , hearing Di's beautiful vocals is extra special. The Bossa is perfect for a all around feel-good vibe. Loved this.
cheers
Gary. HI Gary ... Many thanks for those really nice words. I know you and your wife have faced simialr situations. We hope all is well at this time. Best to both of you ... Alan

Hi Alan and Di,
What a very special treat to hear Di's fabulous voice again. So much life and expression, but always fully controlled. Beautiful.
Great song - smooth and extremely professional throughout.
The whole thing is SO well crafted, from Di's wonderful vocal delivery to the perfect bossa backing and the excellent mix.
Loved the entire experience.
All the best to you both and be sure to tell Di how much I love her voice and wish her the best with her health.
Regards,
ROG Hi ROG ... Thank you for the really nice comments on the song and the well wishes for Di. We appreciate both very much. Di has a distinctive delivery in her vocal style. I agree that the quality of her voice is excellent. But she has a unique approach to phrasing and lyric interpretation. As she says, she has a "freestyle" approach to musical interpretation. She generally a shy, quiet person ... until you put her in front of a microphone. The she just lets her voice take control. Thank you! Alan

Al-David and Di:
I’m a little late to the party on this one, but glad I made it here. What a wonderful tune! Love that flute solo. And Di’s vocal is so, so stellar—sits so sweetly in the mix; just lovely. I’m amazed at your ability to redo the music in BIAB and pair it up with an earlier recording—that takes a lot of talent (and would be a near impossible task for me). Very impressive work here and no surprise the original got accepted.
My best to you both,
Deej
