Great lyrics, vocals, and mix.
Very clever song.

PS - I know a few families that experienced that!

Very clever song, love the lyrics.

For my tastes the vocals, especially yours Marty, should be a bit higher in the mix. But no one else mentioned that, so I'm probably wrong eek

Loved it at the end when the two of you are singing together, nicely done!



Thanks guys!

Thanks, Janne. I like how you say the fun just kept getting better.

And yes, some people just should not reproduce.

Thank you, David. Unfortunately the drive to procreate is an equal-opportunity employer.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Sadly it's a story of truth in so many ways.
Many, many men in 60s Australia went from work directly to the pub and eventually home for dinner when done. That fog of alcohol caused many families to worry & fret about how things would transpire over the evening meal.
Musically it's a cracker too. Jaunty and bouncing under a sad tale - almost a sea shanty.
Terrific work Marty & Janice.



Thanks for mentioning my small part!

Thanks, TB


Thank you Torrey! Not so many as it might seem. J&B do at best one song a month ... and then a few collabs with friends here and there. Love your latest!

Marty, Janice+Bud,
Good collaboration. Fun take on sad subject. Ace vocals by you and Janice. Solid musical bed + neat solo. If you don't think what song is about, easy listen smile Thank you for sharing,
Misha.

P.S. Marty you should try Alt-F8
This is non modal partial regen. If interested, shoot me PM, I will show you how I use it.

Wow!

A fun bit of silliness that's really well done... and then becomes even more delightful at the end.

Love it. laugh

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

Thank you, Misha. Yes, I sometimes use the ALT-F8, too. Great idea. Usually now I go through each RT and redo any measure where they get carried away. smile They always do.

I like that you start with the male unreliable narrator, and then our perspective changes when the wife pipes in. Music bed is pleasant that belies the true nature of their relationship.
