Hi all. This is My latest song.
All comments welcome. Rob4580


I've been waiting

Verse
For just a little while I want to sit and watch the sunrise.
For just a little while I watch reflections in your eyes.

I've been waiting for tomorrow.
I've been waiting for a change.
I think it's time for second chances.
I think its time to take the stage

Bridge


Chorus

I've been waiting for tomorrow. (waiting)
I've been waiting for a change. (waiting)
I think it's time for second chances.
I think its time to leave the stage

Verse
Too many words unsaid I need to find the time to tell you.
I never realized you are healing for my soul.

Chorus

I've been waiting for tomorrow.
I've been waiting for a change.
I think it's time for second chances.
I think its time to leave the stage x2

Lovely melody, Rob. The trumpet is a nice touch. Excellent vocal as usual. Reminded me a bit of late period Jimmy Little.
Regards,
Leon

Another cracker...well done.
I REALLY like the simple guitar intro.
You need to deal with the s beginning sunrise though...it jumps.
Yes, I can hear Jimmy Little in the phrasing and warmth - nice catch Leon.
There is a sense of Jimmy Webb with Glen Campbell in the arrangement - little baroque touches that emphasize the melody.
REALLY nice arrangement.

I really like the lyrics and melody.
Instruments sound good.


If your looking for feedback, I'd suggest dumping the volume panning.

If your looking for feedback, I'd suggest dumping the volume panning, I found that to be distracting.

Hello Leon. Thank you for the Jimmy Little compliment.
Many thanks for listening.

Hi Rob.
I like the melody and lyrics very much.
But ...... for me there seems to be a weird phaser thing going on though which is interfering with the gentler side of it.

Vic

I agree, it stands out at the 1:30 mark.

I liked the lyrics, vocal, and the trumpet. That sounded great. Correct the phase thing and you have a hugh winner on your hands.

This was a really great use of the _BALADAP.STY style, I feel! Really enjoyed the melody on this one as well - it all came together quite nicely! Thanks for sharing.

Lovely ballad. Big sound. Great lyrics. Vocal is great too. The band hit all marks as well.

Rob,

I like it.

I agree with Ray - there is a Jimmy Webb/Glen Campbell sound/feel to this.

(and I hear the phase thing that others reference).

Cool song.

Hello Ray. Thank you for your encouraging comment.

Hello Rob ...

I always enjoy your voice. It's smooth and full and has an intangible and indigenous aura of warmth.

I, too, think the little phase thing should be dialed back. But, that didn't stop me from enjoying the song. Wishing you the very best. Take care.

Alan

Rob, your voice is perfect for this fine ballad. Well produced other than the phasing. I’m not sure what is causing that. Nevertheless I enjoyed it, Tom

Hellow Vic. Thank you for listening and the tip.
Regards Rob 4580

This is one of your best, IMHO. You have a terrific voice. Horns were great. Phasing issue is a problem, can you redo it? Worth the time, I think.

Rob

Overall a good song, enjoyed the melody, vocal and arrangement.

Peter

Compelling. A really good write, Rob, and your presentation as always is flawless.

Dunno what's happening with the file. I've tried repeated times
and always get the phasing issue.

Irrespective of that it is a great write and is carried by a fine vocal!

J&B

Rob,
Slow songs like this are a showcase for your resonant vocals- you carried me along with those nice refrains.
I like this style, and you make good use of it.
If this were mine I`d go back into the mix and listen track by track to find and fix that phase sound- the song and your performance are well worth taking the time.

Robert

Loved the intro Rob. Very cool. Super vocal and lyric. This is definitely your wheelhouse. Well done

Really nice song Rob! I think the horn sounds are an excellent choice for this! As usual, your vocal is great! T

Thank you Captain

hey Rob, good to hear one of your songs again!

Something about this one really resonates with me. The motif established by the trumpet is nice. Your voice has such a comforting quality to it. The tracks flow together very seamlessly... Really, its so cohesive its hard to pick out something to comment on it. It just all sounds great.

I guess if I had to pick one word to describe the song it would be "soothing"

Very nice.
