This is what he's talking about, and we're asking where that button went? Did it completely disappear because nobody was using it?

H Marty Another strong poignant write from you Marty. Too true, that we all take things and loved ones for granted, and then it can be too late. Your vocal was on form, the chosen style worked really well and Dave didn't let you down on the lead guitar, really liked his interpretation. Seeing 2025 out with a good'un Marty. Looking forward to hearing you in 2026. Kind regards

Well done Ron, A song that is relevant today, yesterday and tomorrow. Lyrically, it's perfect and your vocals were really excellent and drove the songs message home. It's one of those songs that has a message every generation should hear. Great stuff, all the best for 2026. Kind regards

Hi there Mr Dee, Hope you had a good Chrissie and are now enjoying the post Christmas heat!! You've been hard at work again with another song. The opening starts off nice and sedately, then builds with the bass pre-verse. I like the way you triple track the vocals, i just wonder if in this instance your vocal needs bringing forward. To my ear it sits back in the mix, but that could just be the effect of triple tracking and panning. Your vocal especially in the chorus is very strong and clear, excellent. I love the bass run down in the chorus. And then you've got a good change in musical and vocal direction in the bridge. Then the tempered outro works well and counters the intro. Another good one Andrew, So if you've knocked out 32 in 10 months, we can expect 40 for all of 2026, right? Catch up soon buddy. Struggling to knock together my next assignment... Happy 2026 to you and all forum members. Hopefully we can all make our little pocket of the world a better place this year through music.

The AI version is a more polished production, but t he original retains its humanness, flaws. I suppose the AI is like hiring a producer for your song. If one wants to use AI to have help them with a production, I have no qualms with that. My beef is when someone uses AI to write the song itself and tries to pass it off as something its not.

December 8, 2025. I just saw this online. Raul Malo passed away from cancer. One of those voices that is unique. He was lead singer of The Mavericks, and a guitar player. Personally, I thought he was in the same class as Roy Orbison. One of those undiscovered jewels in the music business who didn't get the recognition he deserved.

Finally a real human singing! I decided not to comment any AI made songs, so it's great to hear real human singing with it's personal sound. Well produced song reminding me about hits of 1980s. Thanks for commenting! I'm not a fan of AI vocals! I can tell instantly when I hear them! I won't use them as long as I can at least stay close to proper pitch. When all the slight imperfections are removed by inserting AI vocals it kills the authentic sound of a track IMHO! For those who have no other way to get their track down, I understand the usefulness though! Take care, TB

Izzy, as a dog lover I can totally relate to this song. Your lyrics and vocal touched my heart. It is very unfortunate that dogs live such short lives. I could relate as we had to put down three dogs in five weeks; it was a very sad time. I know that it must have been almost impossible to do this song. I loved it. Hi Mario I absolutely had you pegged as a dog lover (not everyone is). Your tragic experience with your three dogs gave me some much needed perspective and snapped me out of my self pity mode. I am so sorry that you and yours had to go through that tripple whammy. Mario , thank you so much for your kind and healing words. You are a very unique and special person full of wonderfull creativity and compassion. The world needs a LOT more Mario's !!!!!!!!!!! A gratefull Izzy.

Hi Bob (and Joliz) Good one! I loved the harmonies/BVs on this one. The fact that the subject lofi girl liked Elliott Smith makes me think she had a good choice in music - melodic, emotional and vulnerable. I am wondering if she was lofi because she was just interested in getting her music down on tape to realise the idea without the search for recorded perfection, or whether this was a metaphor for her life - avoid clutter, go for the heart and not outside appearances etc.? In another way, today's perfection in recording so you can 'hear the silence' can seem empty to some, whereas the presence of the warm crackle of vinyl or hiss of tape means that even when the song ends, there is something there to fill the void. Maybe it was the loneliness? Good music and thought-provoking lyrics - well done! Andrew

Having participated in that album we well remember this tune. And it spurred our interest resulting in reading about the situation. In a perfect world this would go viral and rhinos would be saved. Even in our imperfect world we hope it generates a lot of attention to the betterment of the situation. Music has the power to move things like that. Here's hoping! J&B

That is very lovely and so well arranged and mixed. Great RT's and VST's. We are watching one of the Scenic Relation videos on Australia ... and this song would have been perfect for the background track. Excellent! J&B

Floyd, I loved the original version but you took it up about 10 notches. A lot more drive. Temporary country at its best. Loved it. Thanks, Mario... Some of the cleverest lyrics I've seen. The verses so expertly set up the clincher chorus. And fun. The title instantly caught my attention. Mix and mastering sound right on. Much appreciated, Scott...

I believe they're still working on. It also needs a search or to make the window non-modal so that it you can click on an object to identify its name.

................................... Thanks for adding the teachers. I owe them a lot. I don't know that I personally would include #4. I enjoy photography, and think I'm at least decent at it, but don't consider that a success, just a nice hobby. But then, the definition of successful could mean the meal I cooked last night turned out the way I planned it. Same here Notes. I owe a lot to my music teachers. I also enjoy photography. FWIW if I take a picture, run it through my photography software, and it comes out looking great I think I was successful. I feel the same way about making music in that if I write a song worth posting then I was successful. Others may call it a personal goal. As we both have indicated the term success is ambiguous.
