Chris and Thierry this sounds great. Thierry has the perfect voice for this genre. The backing band is mixed perfectly with his vocal.

One of your best for sure.

Christian..what I take away from your work that most inspires me is the simplicity and elegance…the sound is so clean, with no elements lacking. It forces me to think, in my own work, is this element really needed? As a whole, this song is so nicely made and wonderful to listen to. I do wish that you would provide some info on the rhythm track—did it come right out of the style? Lovely project.

Thanks B.D.Thomas, Mario and Tano Music,
All the rhythm instruments belong to tango style.
The solo piano comes from bossa style.
The solo guitar comes from blues style.

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

Thanks Brno and rharv!
I hope this translation will be good:

Oscar is Argentinian
And dances the tango
Every single morning
With certain horses

Chorus:
To tame them
And win their trust
He knows how to soothe them
Dispelling their mistrust

There's no rush
The gesture is friendly
Without causing stress
Respecting each horse

Oscar has the art of approaching horses
With his gentle voice, he knows how to reassure them
Facing their fear, his kindness prevails
He is never heard shouting

And when he rides bareback
Just for a few steps
He imagines himself on it
In the heart of the pampa

Very good song, vocalist was primo, liked very much how you handled the solo guitar. It didn't step on Thierry's vocal. Fine work, Christian!
