Migrating music projects to new computer was a bit of a challenge, but finally happened and this song ia a "child" of old system and a new one. Not a polished song by any means, just a sketch. Maybe will come back to it one day to groom it some more. Healthy critique is always welcomed! Thank you for tuning in. Together BIAB- I used Reggae Guitar and reggae organ, do not recall numbers as BIAB project is on old computer. vArranger midi, my arrangement. Synths of Halion and my favorite DAW Cakewalk. You like bacon, I like ice cream You like sad films, I like fighting But when I hold your hand, light as a feather Heaven and earth collide together. This train picking up pace snow covers ground with silver lace smudging the line between day and the night white on black, black on white. You like dreaming, I like sleep walking You like jeans, I like you in silk stockings But when you laugh, or when you are crying It feels like planets are colliding This plane picking up height piercing heavy clouds, where the sun shines leaving dusty earth behind, winter that's harsh and unkind You like pretty flowers blooming, I like reading books sad and gloomy, but when you touch my heart with doctor's precision My world explodes in nuclear fission This thought picking up speed racing with time on a one way street and its unclear who will win this game who will rule this domain?

The reggae guitar with long delays reminds me of some cool Dub recordings I had in the 80s. The "Fart" synths in the quite start to the outro are fun. Yes, you should revisit this and complete it some time soon. Cheers rayc "What's so funny about peace, love & understanding?" - N.Lowe

You have a knack for writing an interesting lyric that paints a picture! Good song, it has good bones and is definitely worth polishing. Dave Blue Attitude Website Blue Attitude YouTube channel

The vocals and backing tracks all support the lyric well. We like reggae and reggae influenced work so this is right in our wheelhouse. The synths are cool! We feel that it is more than worthy of a revisit. Enjoyed it. J&B Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.

Very vivid and detail lyricism in this, which for me makes it very memorable. Nicely catchy too, and I thought the mix was concise and professional. Thanks for sharing Cheers, Deryk

I thought the drums could have been a bit more "present" with such a driving groove. Cool lyric. This sounds like something the Talking Heads might have done. I really like it. fj 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...
