Hi Ezekiel, Love the lyrics!
I dig the groove and the mix of instruments.
I enjoyed the listen. Good one.
Thanks for this post! But I don't know what 'dig the groove'means. I'm sure it must be a compliment, but Google translate tells me 'dig' is making a hole or trench in the ground. And the groove is meant as something else then 'splendid', more a 'groove in a gramophone record' or a 'scratch'. But it's nice you enjoyed the listen :-) Hans

Nice beat to this song, and good instrument choices as well. I really liked your intro and how you brought that organ in.

Janice said she could envision you dancing around like John Lennon in the park as you sing this.  Very good powerful lead vocal and harmonies and we like the band you chose. We enjoy your wry sense of humor too regarding those silky sheets and filthy feet and the “but it’s gonna be lonely also for you.” Ha! We didn’t hear it before your adjustments to the guitar levels were made but we certainly like the levels where they are now. Cool! J&B

Excellent vocal and a good overall track. I only heard the most recent version so no comments on the guitar.
A good song all round.

Hello Brad, Janice and Bud, Peter and Mario, Well, I had to go back some pages on the forum to find my song. It's a busy time on the forum, you can say that! Nice beat to this song, and good instrument choices as well. I really liked your intro and how you brought that organ in. Hi Brad, very nice words from you! About the organ: I made some other Blues then (say from 2017) and someone on the forum told me I needed a B3 in the song. A B3??? I didn't klnow it was the most famous organs for blues. So there it was. And when I made this song in 2018/19 first instrument in was that B3. Janice said she could envision you dancing around like John Lennon in the park as you sing this. Very good powerful lead vocal and harmonies and we like the band you chose. We enjoy your wry sense of humor too regarding those silky sheets and filthy feet and the “but it’s gonna be lonely also for you.” Ha! We didn’t hear it before your adjustments to the guitar levels were made but we certainly like the levels where they are now. Cool! J&B Hi Janice and Bud, oh I'm so happy the song reminded Janice on how John danced like me, or the other way around. But John is back!!! The Silky Sheets and Filthy Feets have been mentioned several times. Not the piercing, scary eyes. I wondered why? But yes, lonely nights weren't just for that poor loser... But thanks a lot for the compliments! Hans
Excellent vocal and a good overall track. I only heard the most recent version so no comments on the guitar.
A good song all round.
Peter Hi Peter, thanks as well for your nice words. And that guitar solo was playing while I started or ended singing. I still think it was nice doing that, but I had not enough votes, so... Hi Hans, I missed the original post but this one is awesome
Super vocal and mix
Great lyrics
You had me from the first measure
Hi Mario, Yes, that guitar. Well see what I wrote to Peter (above). But thanks very much for the compliments. They make the day! Oh, and I'm sorry we kicked out your soccer team last Saturday. Hans

Hans—
Love the vocal (as always)—and the BGVs in the chorus are terrific. Not sure I recall hearing the original, but you just have made all the right adjustments because this is stellar. Nothing not to like on this; all elements of the production shine. Outstanding tune!
Happy Holidays,
Deej

This sounds excellent Hans. Lots of energy in this!
Vocal wise this is one of your best. Particularly near the end of the song the interaction between the lead and background vocals gets really interesting.
Great lead guitar as well.

alis JaniJackFlash Derouchette, I'm pleased you liked it. It was fun to remix this 'older' song. Hans—

Deej, Love to read you had no complains! And about the original, it had the same nice melody, but the lyrics were a bit 'strange'(bad English) and the vocals were with too much reverb. I had to learn a lot. Still have... This sounds excellent Hans. Lots of energy in this!

Rob, I like what you wrote on the harmonies. Always difficult if you sing them all... Jij mag hem ook zingen hoor ;-) I wish you all a merry Christmas! Hans

I like it! Nice guitar solo. The voice level took a little to get used to, but, once my ears adjusted, I liked that, too :-) Really good job!!!
