Nigel, Rayc, and Hans.

thanks for the great comments/analysis. very good stuff.
(ps.. i'm more a songwriter/creator/singer of various styles than haveing any great strength as a production engineer.
i just do my best from things i picked up in studios.)

let me explain as follows.
1. song start with the short acoustic geetar before the band comes in was me sorta reminiscing how in various music groups in days of yore we would try and have a short few strums in order to catch the lead guitarist "napping". sorta an inside joke thing. lmao.
how bout a couple of cowbells to start instead ?
any other ideas ?
2. vocals back. yep i debated that at the time. good point. trouble was i was in rehab after surgery so i never addressed it.
i did at one point try a shorter reverb /closer vocs but seemed to loose something. it was a quick song done at the time cos i got tired easily after surgery.
i'll try a remix. no biggie.
3. nameing of song on soundcloud. the "small" was used as in "small town".
i was thinking that soundcloud wouldnt want a long song name like...
"i know a guy who knows a guy..." ???
is it ok to use long song names on sound cloud...?
cos i got some "doozies"...lol.
4. please clarify RAYc what does "TREE CHANGERS" mean ?

once again everyone thanks for your kindness and listening. excellent comments.

every happiness.

ps its amazeing how this song sounds different on my junky laptop speakers. versus my high quality earbuds.
i'm constantly asking myself how to mix so a song sounds great on everything. such a challenge .
