A delightful listen! Alyn...
I'm liking your group harmonies!
This is really an answer or counterpart to Adele's "Hello"... isn't it..
Cool vocal on this. Heart-felt.
floyd I have to take your word for the Adele song as I have not listened that song in its entirety. Thanks re the vocals, I orchestrated the flab four and that took sometime. So glad you enjoyed Happy Christmas to you and your family Alyn

Hi Alyn, Really nice song and cool vocals! The Flab Four are great, you should ask them more often to do your BVs. Thanks Rob and Anne Marie, The flab four hit that spot when I first heard the harmonies together. I shall definitely use them again, if I can keep them out of the fridge thanks for listening Alyn

great sound - agree completely with the first post, "Really natural conversational lyric" sparse instrumentation gives this a very intimate feel.
nice work!~ Thank you, it was meant as an "over heard" conversation between me and her. I am glad it worked so glad you enjoyed it Alyn

Alyn What a great piece of entertainment!
This is a really catchy song. Great harmonies, and I especially liked the lines: I tried to write a letter my pen wont write my words
Thank you, there is more of an intimate brain connection between pen and thoughts, it wouldn't have worked with today's technology thanks for listening, so glad you enjoyed it All the best wishes for Christmas Alyn

Cool song!! Really natural conversational lyric. I like the arrangement with the sparse instrumentation, and may I say, the "flab four" are at the top of their game in this one. Really nice tune!! Take care. Greg Yes, yes. Groovy and a really cool song! It definitely has the rare quality of the songs from those British invaders:) Complex, but also down to earth? Hard to describe. All I know is I like it, a lot!

Hi Alyn, Nice acoustic song. Your lyrics are well put together and the title is right to the point. Good job on everything including all of your vocals. Sonny Cheers Sonny, The song was written with one lady in mind but she didn't ring me *sob* glad you enjoyed it thanks for dropping by and commenting Alyn

Acoustic guitar, a super vocal, some tasty harmonies and some outstanding lyrics, what's not to like about this one!
This really proves that less can be more! You have the perfect balance here.
This is my favorite one from you thus far. Wow Mario, thanks Yep less is certainly more sometimes and the harmonies were also on the 1st chorus for a while but then hit the spot at the end. Thanks for listening Hope you unseasonable weather continues and you and yours have a relaxing Christmas together. Alyn

Alyn. Love the acoustic treatment on this one and the layered voices in the chorus. I laughed because I realized that I hadn't really heard the term "telephone" in a loooong time. yup telephone is a word from the past but "give us a bell" or that partially clenched hand sign with the thumb and pinky outstretched didn't really translate to this song LOL Glad you enjoyed and that I made you laugh. Hope you all have a good Christmas in SA! All the best Alyn

I like the bare-bones style..... just a vocal and guitar.
The vocal choir effect took me by surprise.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Hi Alyn.
Fabulous.
A sort of acoustic love song in the punk style, if that makes sense?
Perhaps it's just the inimitable Alyn style.
It would have been good with just voice and guitar, but the BVs take it to another level.
A good start to the weekend. Have a good one yourself, my old Welsh pal.
ROG.
Yes it does make sense! And the harmonies? Wow -- just amazing. A signature style is a helluva asset for a musician and you have it in spades. Great production and we much enjoyed the spin. J&B

Simplicity at it's best! Just goes to prove that often, less is better than a lot. Liked the vocal harmony! Super job, Alyn! Best to you ...

Herb, Thanks for dropping by and I am glad you liked this song. The vocal choir was all me, no Melodyne or anything. It took some time to get it right and I am glad you enjoyed it. All the best for Christmas Alyn

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
