Hi Deej.
Nice to hear an old face or see an old voice. grin

I did record this myself three years ago and it’s still on Soundcloud.
Sent Jack the instrumental and he sung to it along with his backing vocalist. I re-mixed and tweaked here and there.

Thanks a lot for your input and support as always.

Vic,
Nice modern sounding singer-song writer tune. I believe vocalist(s) did a fine job. Good set of lyrics. Overall mix is very clear, but I agree with Ray that it might benefit d-esser. I listened on Sennheiser Momentum headphones, which are a bit "bark" and bass rich, still sssing comes through noticeably. Enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Hi Misha.
I must have a higher tolerance to the sss’s but I will take another look at it.
Thanks for your input.

I like it!

As Misha said, a modern sound, but with a mellow sensibility.

Love the message, too.

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

I agree, this has a modern sound to it. And that is something I am unable to do. I guess I'm stuck in the past.

Good write. I enjoyed the listen!

Mostly, I'd rather be stuck in the past too.
Things seemed more interesting then.

Thanks for the comment.

Well written and an excellent lyric for these times.

Jack did a fine job and hinted of your voice to us.

The production and choice of Biab tracks sounds very good...well mixed!

Enjoyed it!

Great song. The groove was very catchy and solid throughout the song. Super guitar. I'm I to assume that your are responsible for that? The vocals were spot on as were the backing track and mix.

Two thumbs up.

Thank you Mario.
The guitar is BIAB, chopped, twisted around and slid into place.
Thanks also for the two thumbs.
