Hello everyone, This is our new song: Wiser Woman Rob wrote this song for me (for my birthday) back in 2013. He used the program One Man Band for it (similar to BiaB, but without real tracks). We decided to create a Biab version of it. Contrary to the original version, I did the backing vocals here. We decided to use the original video. In 2008 4 long-eared owls were born in a tree behind my house. They got quite used to the sight of me (not afraid at all), so I got lots of chances to use my camera. The video features an almost full rotation of the mother owl's head at 1.27 m. Style is C_EAGLES.STY (Eagles Style) 379:Bass, Electric, Country DoubleTime Ev 088 ~589:Banjo, Bluegrass Doc Ev 100 (Rhythm) 2449:Guitar, Electric, Background, PopDreamyBrent Ev 085 (CustomFX) 1946:Mandolin, Rhythm ModernCountrySync Ev16 100 378:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming DoubleTime Ev 088 1757:Accordion, Rhythm Pop8ths Ev 085 Nashville2Beat^01-a:Sidestick , b:Snare, Ride Here is the link to the original version which is (of course) more dear to me: Wiser Woman original versionAnne-Marie Lyrics: Wiser woman you can shed some light on my beliefs As you find them right at your front door As we rush through the days and sometimes hide in the night when I'm miles away from my trusted door yet feeling quite secure That was the night but here comes the day with a desire to achieve and to make the world see what we can do Reminiscing the times old songs come into mind will they take us back to those rhythms and rhymes that used to be our kind And we will rush through the days but sometimes fly in the night while I'm miles away from my trusted door still feeling quite secure Wiser woman this was another year that's kind of special in a way and it makes me wanna stay another day

R & AM, The song is very well written and recorded. The overall volume was very low and I felt it could have been longer. I enjoyed my listen. Tom

"And we will rush through the days
but sometimes fly in the night while I'm
miles away from my trusted door
still feeling quite secure"
Great lines amongst many others.
Very nice vocals and a super
arrangement to support them.
We have three species of owls
on our property and really
enjoy them as we enjoyed this
vid.

Hi Rob & Anne-Marie,
This song has got a really nice feel, excellent vocals. The banjo and mandolin fit in just so perfectly.
Great effort actually!
Thanks

Hey guys... I really like this!!!
Awesome arrangement. Crisp. clean. modern, but familiar.. loved the instrumentation - super mix.
The processing on the vocal (Rob's) was perfect. I would have like to hear more of Anne-Marie in this one (meaning, a bit louder).
Good write.
Super.

Hi Rob and Anne Marie,
Love this production,
A feel good song, enhanced by those owls... Loved the video!
Production was at your usual standard, agree with Floyd though.
Spring is coming! Thanks for giving me that feel ☺

Hi Rob and Anne-Marie. Yet another brilliant production! You two sure have pizzazz when it comes to creating and presenting music both aurally and visually. As floyd said "Awesome arrangement. Crisp. clean. modern, but familiar.. loved the instrumentation - super mix." I could not have put it better! All the best, Noel

Pretty song, and as usual production was tops!! This had a little bit of retro sound for me (Glen Campbell or someone like that). That was my era. I agree with Floyd that AM's vocal was a bit soft. Beautifully done!! Take care. Greg

Hi Rob & Anne Marie,
Great track with a very slick and professional sound.
The video had me fascinated. You're SO lucky to have been able to film that.

Thank you Tommy,
yes, the overall volume.... We are trying to mix our recordings as loud as possible in Cubase, trying to avoid 'peaks', but maybe we shouldn't be that careful ;-)
