Rob, This song & your vocal performance remind me of Richard Hawley. Dropping in a xylophone part was inspired. The strings work wonderfully. Richard Hawley Tonight Lovely work mate.

Smoooooooth.
It ticked all the right boxes: pleasant melody, well sung, nice arrangement, good instrumental break at just the right time... It had the comfortable feel of a song that's been heard before, but without feeling derivative.
Excellent work.

Hi Rob,
Beautiful! You already know how much I enjoy your vocals - this is just another reason why. Wonderful backing tracks. Everyuthing exacrly as it should be.
On the particular song, your vocal reminds me somewhat of David Houston. Much enjoyed, as usual.

Rob,
A lovely sad country ballad! The melody is beautiful. The chord change to Sub-dominant minor at the chorus is very nice. Wonderful vocal as usual. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

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
