It is a podcast called "Free Range Texan" and Michael interviews singer-songwriter type people for each episode and then features one of their songs. We talked A LOT about Band-in-a-Box and what a great product it is. The song that will be featured is "I AM WOMAN". Michael was quite amazed that the song took about three hours from start to finish. From original concept to writing to recording and then releasing.

Very, very good lyric - particularly given the time frame you outlined. As always - spot on pitch and harmonies. Cheers rayc "What's so funny about peace, love & understanding?" - N.Lowe

There is excellent melding of the relatively sparse lyric with the musical bed - each has the space to define itself individually and as well-oiled parts of the whole. Congrats on the song and the podcast!!! Wishing you well, Alan Last edited by Al-David; 04/07/19 04:22 PM.

The lyric is "anthemic", yet the backing is subdued and minor keyed and the combination seems to say (to me) "Do I really need to explain these things to you again?" That's my listen, anyway.

And the nicest of all is in the song your voice faded away, but stays in your (my) head. Thanks very much, Hans Hans Berkhout (Birchwood) https://soundcloud.com/user-296497130
