This is one kick-a$$ song! Whoa Nellie! You having written for your mother increases its value ten-fold.

Everything is sounding good and sounding hot.

"I can remember the words you said,
when you told me you had eyes in the back of yo head" That's a good one!

Personally I prefer the groove of the intro.
The vocal gets really loud and seems strident in a couple of frequencies.
The progression & melody are cool & the narrative is really good.
Thanks Ray, I always appreciate your great feedback.

You are producing music that this forum needs to put on a pedestal as a shining example of what can be done using BIAB! I really hope the folks at PG Music are taking note of the consistent high-level work that you are sharing! I appreciate all of it! Thanks, Torrey
Thanks again Torrey... Your words and music are inspiring...

Man, what a wonderful tribute to your mom, bloc-head. Glad I'm hearing it on Mother's Day. You stacked this with some terrific musicians, including yourself, and sang those words with a very affectionate heart. What a great song. I bet she loved it!


Enjoy whatever happens!

This is the 5th or 6th time I've listened to this. Just now getting around to commenting - lots going on.

What a knock-out sound! Great lyric, terrific band and hell of a vocal! You've put up a lot of fine music for us to listen to. I think your Mom is smiling!

Bloc-head:

First off, the vocal is just killer—really well done and mixed (though a couple of noted seem on the high end). I thought out of the gate the music bed sounded a bit busy, but it settled in thereafter, and gained momentum. Wow, the more I listen, that vocal is really sweet . . . and the BGVs are stellar. Really nice job!

Best regards,

Deej

Cool song Bloc-head. Has a real rockin' vibe.

I think I have asked this before. Are you selling your song for $10 a piece on Band Camp?

Thanks David... I did sell one a while back in spite of the high price, but no, I'm deliberately trying not to sell them on this page... thus the 10x price... I do have most of my original music available for download at a normal low price on a different site.

Like many, I really don't know what I'm doing, but I'm pretty sure I'm not looking for fortune & fame in the so-called music biz... whatever that is now.

edit;
and another thing... the advertisements on SoundClod are really sucking a lot of the fun out of listening, for me.
