Well timed in more ways the one.

What a great tribute, well presented and a very pleasant listen.

The guitar break gave extra dimension. Beautiful song.

Good job on this, SpaceDog! It's a well written, and well thought out piece of music. It's got a really good groove too. I found the guitar work here gave it a lot of character, and the arrangement is superb as well.

Thanks for sharing this wonderful tribute with all of us smile

Thank you all for listening. I'm glad you enjoyed the song.

It seems like you all liked the guitar tracks. Those are all RealTraks. I wish I could play like that. I think the RT#s are 522, 1677, and 1515. Brent Mason plays the 1515 lead guitar track. Wow, what a gifted artist. Thanks PGM for signing him.

The strings are SuperMidi from the BIAB Everything pack. That was the first generation as well. Too easy!!

I was really motivated to write and record this song before I went on holiday. I wanted to be sure it was done for Thanksgiving. I can't think of many other Thanksgiving songs. It just proves my point that people think right past Thanksgiving and go directly Christmas.

Again, thanks for your kind words.

Ember,

Thanks. I'm glad you liked it.

Being an international forum I was wondering what people might think from other countries.

Hi

Your songs are always like a reminder to me, their are nice people with something to say in this world, you say it so beautiful through your own way in music.

Don't for a minute think this is a bad thing, you and your songs make me want to be a better person, because of their natural feel.

P.S. You do look like our prince William, does anybody else see this.

Best

Thank you so much for your kind comments. I try to write positive, uplifting music. I figure there are enough angst and negativity in world. Other musicians have first hand experience dealing with dark issues. I'll leave that self expression to them.

I had to laugh. I can see my resemblance to Prince William.


Alan

Thanks. The song came together rather easily, actually. I used several song writing techniques to expedite the work. The music and melody always just flows at its own pace. PGM does the rest.

Robert

I'm glad you liked the song.

Joe,

Thanks. Yes, I've often used the PGM Tech Support and copious tutorials. BIAB and RB have so many features developed over so many years, it really helps to have such great support I think most of us agree, we are very impressed with the PGM products and services.

RichMac,

I glad you liked the song. I'm glad the message resonates around the world.

Thanks for listening. Beware of Wild Turkeys (birds, crazy people, and of course, whisky).

Nice one SD!! I think the message is great. We do lose touch with the significance of things. Nice melody and good job with the vocal! Take care. Greg

Okay, How did you guys find this post on page 4?

Thanks for listening. I'm glad it communicated to you. Strangely the song came together pretty easily and naturally. Maybe that's why people are responding to it.

Glad you liked it.
