Marty and the gang,
What a production! The most creative piece I ever heard from you! There's so much going on it, that it's hard to take it all in! All of you gave exceptionally good performances! Love the change-up of the flow between the verses and chorus! It's a cool song that will get many listens! Marty, your vocal on this is one of your best ever! Kudos to Janice and Dave also!
Thanks, Torrey Well done Marty, a fun season song complete with foley and frighteners.
There were couple of spots where the slight whistling S was emphasized by the reverb but that's small beer.
Those harmonies are double plus good and Bell rings a little neck for the gruesome solo. Hi Marty and crew,
A wonderful song and, like Mario wrote, perfect for Haloween.
What imagination you had while camping with your son!
I like the tempo changes in the song and how the chorus developed.
And the harmonies in the chorus are very nice!
Of course I cannot unmentio the guitar solo from Dave, one word: Great!!!
Loved it, Marty,
Hans A big praise to all involved
Excellent creepy song ;-)
Excellent song structure
Marty, your vocals fit the song perfectly
Janice and Dave of course also do a great job again
And together with the video it gets really creepy
I liked it very very much
Many greetings
Andi ;-) Thanks Guys for the harmony mention! Janice

Marty,
HAHAHAHAHA!
Loved it! Terrific video.
A clever write. Excellent production. Solid mix.
Needless to say, everyone held up their end.
Dave's Guitar, Janice's harmonies.
Oooooh that Bass!
One of your best!
fj Thanks, Floyd. Marty & team
That was a lot of fun. loved the highly entertaining video.
Excellent "creepy" vocal and some inventive "horror" evoking guitar by Dave.
Good catchy chorus and you and Janice blend nicely. Always a plus to get Janice on board.
Great stuff.
Peter Thanks, Peter. horror evoking. I like that. Yes, having Janice onboard will always right the ship, and I hear you have a new one with her, too. SO cool.
...
This was a lot of fun. Thanks for mentioning my small part!
Janice
Haha. Small, huh? I know you could do this part one-and-done, but the result is anything but small, Janice. The seasonal timing is perfect-- you should pitch this to sync libraries. The chorus is an ear worm
Thanks, Bob. It wasn't originally intended as a Halloween song, but that became the working title.

Creepy! Those tempo changes make this really feel like a horror movie, only some high pitch kid vocals are missing, but your different singing styles and knocking on the door give enough shivers  And that's before seeing the video... The chorus is hilarious in a nightmarish way. The band, Dave, Janice and you work tightly together. Creative and fun. Great work with the video, clips are selected cleverly to support the story. Janne Thanks for all of that, Janne. Thanks for also watching the video. That was loads of fun, Marty. We have possums dancing on our roof some nights. Heavy-footed critters.
Regards,
Leon Thanks, Leon. So you know first-hand what it's like. I've had squirrels find their way into the attic. Live and let live and all, but we put a stop to that. Hi Marty.
I love the “ants” and “dance” rhyme.
Wonderfully imaginative song but I can’t stand the suspense. What the &@#% was it.
Vic I know, right? It's just like Hollywood to not give it a name, except critter. Thanks, Vic! Hi BabuMusic,
Camping is good for your music creations. It's fun and engaging. Well done. I apprecied.
Kindly regard
Derochette
alias JaniJackFlash Thanks, Derochette. Inspiration comes from many sources. I thought of your often while putting this together. You could have done this whole piece without words or vocals and told the whole story even better.

Alan Haha, Thanks so much, Alan. I read your comment a couple days ago, too, and am just now getting to thank you, and say right back atcha, man. Awesome tune Marty. Really clever lyrics. Super voca. Daves guitar was perfect. Loved the tempo change. Gave the song some very cool dynamics. Excellent video. Well done... Thanks, Scott. That tempo change made it kind of a random thing for coming back in with the vocals. Janice seems to have had no problem, but I had a couple do-overs. Whoah! Such a sweet groovy sound and vibe. Nicely done ladies and gents! Thanks, David! What a song!!!! And perfectly timed for the season!!! LOVE the sound of your vocal and the mix!!! AND, of course, Dave's wonderful guitar work!! This should be a Halloween HIT!!! Take care. Greg
P.S. Loved the video too!! Thanks, Greg. In this world of music moguls, hits are made after the song is distributed. Last night I listened to some of your songs and Torrey's new album. Man, this place has all the hits I'd ever want to hear and they keep coming. You take care, too, Greg.

Now, that was fun Marty! I love your stuff. Funny or serious, it's all so original. This would be a great one for a camp out or Halloween! The overall production was so good, it must have been difficult mixing in everybody's talent, but you sure did it right!
