Hans, what a fantastic song
Loved the arrangement
Super vocal and great mix
I really liked this one.
Tips on how to fall asleep in a living room chair:
1- Be old
2- Sit in a chair
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Hi, Hans. I haven't heard the first version. There is something about a piece that is stripped down to a few instruments that has a lot of energy and soul. "The Dice" has wonderfully contemplative lyrics and an engaging, lovely tune. You really have done a beautiful job!
John

That intro is challenging...some sudden changes and no real indication of what was to come but it was an important entry point.
Another HANSome piece. Not sure about the string solo though.
GOOOOOD voice.
Cheers

Nice piano intro. Really, really good chorus. The little breaks and dynamic changes are effective.

GOOOOOD voice. Hi Ray, what very nice compliments from you! I like that "Hansome". Think I'm gonna use it, on occasions of course. Except the strings; what about them? Not a long solo, the sound of it? Tell me! (because I like them a lot...) Hans
