Trevor,
Such an amazing song and beautiful vocal as well. I hope that you pass on congrats to the singer, she sure can sing
Where have you been hiding your talent Trev up to now?
Brilliant arrangement as well, I do feel that the audiophile version does add that little bit extra of sparkle as well.
Great song, so good you could go places with this.
Really enjoyed the listen

Not hard to like this one! I agree that the vocals sit to far back in the mix a tad, not much but they seem to be competing with the piano for attention. Other than that it's a great arangement and production, The lyrics are very good also, you should do more (lots more).

Trevor,
I just noticed that you've gotten about twice as many views on this song as anybody else, even compared to the heavy hitters whose hit count always tends to be higher than the norm.
Can you shed a little light on this? Did you link to the forum post on other web sites to draw more hits than the regular forum traffic would generate?
Whatever you did is something we should all be doing to draw people here to the BIAB site so others can be exposed to the potential of PGMusic products!
I'm not only impressed with your song and with your first lyrical work, but now I'm impressed all over again by your promotional skill!

Hi Pat No, I never mentioned this on any other site. Guaranteed. In fact I'm not even a member of any other music related forum (except for Cakewalk, but I'm not active there at all). However, Floyd's Take Me Drunk has received a similar number of views in the same amount of time (and it deserves it too). And Noel's Brighter than any star has nearly 20,000 views! I've got a long way to go  But I'm indebted to all that the song has been well received. Thanks again Trevor

Trevor,
I just had to comment on this again... this is SO GOOD!!!
No need to go into detail. It is simply a great listen.
A SONG. The way songs ought to be. A true delight to hear.
I really cranked it. The mix holds up.
Standing O.

Rick Thanks Rick, your feedback is greatly appreciated. I am going to have a much closer look at the levels. It might be that I've been a little too conservative with the vocals. Thanks for your ideas. Trevor

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks
MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:
There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:
1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track
