I was getting rid of some old computers and thought that I'd remove the hard drives first and see if I needed anything on them...I found an audio file with some old tracks on it and discovered these vocal tracks...so I made some new instrumental accompaniment tracks with BiaB and some Genos stuff and voila! So...if you choose to listen I would love your feedback especially concerning the mix...thanks...Dan

That was a very worthwhile treasure hunt! Glad you found this gem! My old hard drives would not yield such a find, probable something that would not be pleasant to listen to!
You turned this into a great song!
What an awesome message you've delivered here....one that surely put a smile on the face of the One sung about!
Great vocal and BGvox to go along with some stellar piano playing! I wish I could play piano like that, but I end up just memorizing short phrases and chord patterns a couple bars at a time!
Take care, TB

Dan, nicely saved, and the backing tracks are super! Love the dynamic range of your vocals on this one. Knowing how powerful and majestic your vocals can be, I was really struck by the beauty of the softly sung passages. Very enjoyable listen!

Dan,

Keep looking! if you find any more like this, that would be a gift for the rest of us. Your vocals are always so smooth and beautiful. The bgvs always stand out in your productions.

Thanks for a great listen and message. Loved the piano triplets on the bridge!

Wishing you the very best.

Dan, the mix is perfect.
As usual outstanding vocal and lyrics.
You are the best gospel singer I have ever heard.

Hi, Dan.

Such a good song! smile

Your vocals are always excellent, and the mix here is nicely balanced.

Note to self: Use modulations more often - they're super effective.

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

Dadgum, I'm glad you checked that computer! Excellent song. I second all the above comments. Your piano pickin' really stood out on this one Dan. Great writing, as always, and the backing tracks you chose were right on the money. I especially liked that bass.

Dan, once again you have captured an amazing vocal performance. Very well written and the mix sounds great. You have inspired me to search my back catalog for a long forgotten gem such as this. Great message and very timely, Tom

The lyric is definitely timely for these days. Good save on rediscovering it before you tossed the old hard drive.
It all sounds smooth and polished as we have come to expect from you.

Well done,
