Hi BabuMusic

The lyrics are well written. The combination of vocals and guitar solo well done. Nice melody It's pleasant and I enjoyed it

I don't think there has ever been "good old days" - just simpler life with more hardships, a small group had to work very hard as one, no freeloaders (but I guess hostality between groups was as bad as today). But I agree with the title, mortality and feeling alive were strongly present (and we have lost that "feel" in this virtual world). And you have written a strong blue song about that subject, I can feel what it means to be "alive" through your music. Your singing is very emotional, I enjoyed how you make every word count.

The arrangement and mix are top quality, Marty the bassist was alive when playing this and hopefully still is. Dave's guitar is really at home in the song.

Really nice groove on this one. I like the lyrical idea. The guitar and the bass sound fantastic

Thanks, Dave. I can't imagine the song without you. Man, I've heard it without you in it, and it's bland that way.

Ah, you're right, Janne. The whole premise is fantasy, as is my hope for the future. One day if we survive long enough we may just bump into our potential. Yes, it was the title that seemed to hold the most truth.

Thanks, Ellitott. Fantasy is fun, but playing alive with Dave is the best part of it.


Enjoy whatever happens!

The live instruments are primo. The bass is more prominent in the mix, which I like very much! I'm on board with your message.
You keep cranking out the tunes, and I can barely keep up, so bare with my lateness.

Love this song Marty. Cool groove. Drums and bass were excellent. Dave's guitar fills and solo were perfect. Awesome vocal and lyric Marty. Well done
