Kiss Me Slowly on Soundcloud

Hi All. This one is something completely different for me. A love song plain and simple!

I wrote it in response to an opportunity for a slow and romantic song for the end of a movie. Something you could do a slow dance to.

I hope you enjoy it and comments are most welcome as usual.

Realtracks are
RealTracks in song: 533:Bass, Electric, 12-8 Crystal Sw 065
RealTracks in song: ~526:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Hank Sw 065
RealTracks in song: 895:Piano, Acoustic, Solo-Accompaniment PopSlow12-8 Ev 060
RealDrums in Song: Pop128^1-a:SideStick, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride
Some MIDI strings were added.

Harmonies are mostly me with some BIABettes to thicken up the sound.

Delightful! Thoroughly enjoyed the video and the song which is beautifully done with tasteful backing. Very nice harmonies. Cheers.

Very nice indeed Josie. Beautifully delivered.

PS: The Soundcloud link doesn't go to this song (for me anyway!)

When it first started it reminded of "Young Love." Very nice. Enjoyed the listen.

I would have liked the harmonies a little louder.
But that's just my taste.

Beautiful song and I think the stylistic difference is a very good fit for you. I hope you occasionally will grace us with more of these gems in the future.


Regards,

Charlie

Nice job on that, Joanne. Good balance on the instruments (the drums could be a little louder). The reverb you used on your vocal is very nice. Nice harmonies...

Nice.

Was I supposed to get kind of excited? Because I did. Wonderful write! (I'm hearing some distortion in the lead vocal esp. on the O's like "On" and "hold")

Hi Rich – thanks so much. I am so glad you found it delightful

John – Thanks so much for finding the time to listen to my song. I do hope to hear you back on the forums shortly and I am holding thumbs for both you and your wife. I fixed the soundcloud link. Thanks for pointing it out.

Hi Charlie (McG) – Thanks so much. I take it that it is Sonny James you are referring to http://youtu.be/pU_8D5jBqd0

Hi Guenter – thanks for that. I will probably redo this one as the lead vocals are a bit distorted (as Lawrence picked up). I am working on a different computer (I spilled tea all over my usual one) and am battling with the sound setup.

Hi Charlie (Fogle) – Thank you for you kind comments. I will definitely consider doing more of these sorts of projects in the future.

Floyd – thanks. I may redo this and will bring up the drums if I do.

Dani – Thanks you for your sweet comments. I always appreciate them

Lawrence – Hopefully it was the singing that got to you and not the corny video. Ha ha. I do think there is some distortion and it has been worrying me. Battling with a different computer so will probably redo it.

Great vocals, Joanne. It has a little female Roy Orbison sound to me. Very nice!

Very, very nice. That acoustic guitar sounds really good and the vocal is sitting right where, by my ears, it oughta be. I'm with floyd on the vocal reverb -- perfect for your voice.

Simple love songs are what the world needs more of.

Thanks for sharing.

Joanne, Very nice write. Well sung but i also am hearing some distortion on the lead vocal. Very well put together. I enjoyed it. Tom

Hi Eric, Bud, Steve, Josie and Tommy - thanks for your nice comments. So glad you liked it. I enjoyed singing it too!

I agree with Tommy on the distortion on the vocals.

I will rerecord it once I have figured out how to do that without distortion on this funny old computer!
