Hi Scott, DC Ron, Nigel, Anne-Marie and Marty,

Very nice to read your posts on the song. Also funny only Marty more or less recalls having 'middle-in-the-night' thoughts or things like that...
It's an important moment in our lives I believe ;-)

Hi Scott, thanks for all you said. Especially about the mix. I remember times... You too, about your lead guitar in my song?

Hi Ron, that bridge, well I feared I had to lower the tempo of the song, but then found another solution, mute all instruments except the piano and put in the chords with the 'hold' dots in BiaB.
The piano did what I asked. Thanks!

Hi Nigel, I was a bit amazed to get a post from you. I thought these kind of songs are not your taste, so thanks a lot!

Great music and vocals.
Especially where you added the backing vocals.
Echt een lekker nummer.

Rob and Anne-Marie

Hoi Rob en Anne-Marie, fijn dat jullie konden luisteren en dus ook weer je neus laten zien hier.
Veel dank voor je commentaar en je aardige email. Zal het even vertalen voor de anderen:

Translation for those who can't speak Dutch:
Hi Rob and Anne-Marie, very nice you could listen to my song and be around on the forum.
Many thanks for your comment and your kind email.

If you wrote this one while lying awake, you should never sleep. Love that bereak in the middle of the song where you plead the Universe to let you sleep. Seems the Universe enjoys your sleepless songs, too.

Hi Marty, I hope you learned from it by trial and error. Leave a notebook or recording device next to your pillow. I don't need that myself. I remember all, except what I don't remember... But they are not important than, I think. The universe is, by the way, the entity that keeps me awake all the time. Maybe they want to prefent me from making songs...

Till our next song!
Hans
