Hi All,

This is a song I put together earlier this year with BIAB, called Angel On The Breadline. I recently decided to do a moody little video to go along with the song... LOL!

Anyway, here it is. smile



Thanks for watching - hope you enjoy it.

Wow, as a band member of ours used to say,
"that's strong as a garlic milkshake!"

That song knocked us out the first time
around and the vid really ices the cake.

We really enjoyed this and look forward
to passing it on the friends.

Hey Bob,

I think this may well be my new favorite from you!

The lyrics are full of interesting imagery, and you made it flow seamlessly with none of it sounding contrived. The video effect is also kind of profound in its own simplicity.. you've made some really complex artsy videos, but this rivals any you've ever made. It just seems "right" for the song. Maybe because the video is understated, it yields center stage to the song. (Sometimes an "over the top" video ends up competing with the music.)

The buttery quality of your voice is ideal for this melody... and your harmonies are just perfect! I've mentioned before that you have such a stylized voice that it can potentially create harmonizing challenges unless your harmonist is equally stylized. In this case, the other singer is YOU, and so the symmetry between the voices is spot ON! Just a total pleasure to hear! I can't find one nit here to mention.

We haven't heard from you in a while.. I hope this is the beginning of more songs from you!

Bob,

Glad to see this song pop up in a video! One of your best - and a great soundscape for your lyric.

What a terrific way to do a performance video. Made me want to try one (though I doubt I ever would).

Did you do lighting? or is that an effect from the software? Super effective....

Hey Floyd,

Thanks for watching and commenting - much appreciated.

I shot the video in very low light. The effect that you see is a "pencil" overlay that I applied in iMovie.

You should make a video - would love to see that!

Excellent song Bob. Excellent lyrics, playing and singing. The violin was a nice touch. The video was a nice addition as well.

I really liked this song! You have a great voice and the video was super.
The song, lyrics, backing tracks and mix were top notch. The violin lead was perfect!
