This is what I came up with. All comments welcome. Antietam The guns have fallen silent no blood on the ground. Attend to the injured their wounds have been bound. Many a widow have tended the graves. Don't take me back to Antietam again. Chorus So cry out poor Johnny for mother to come. Then beg the lord for his mercy. Lay down your musket and try not cry Now drink ye some water for your thirsty Bridge I'll canter the blue roan along valleys and tracks. I'll ride among willows and never look back. Not march to the drum beat with dead all around. Don't take me back to . So cry out poor Johnny for mother to come. Then beg the lord for his mercy.

Very poignant lyrics. I'd never heard of Antietam so I looked it up on Wikipedia. The alternative name "Battle of Sharpsburg" rings a distant memory bell from secondary school history class. Good job

Both the arrangement and vocals do a great job carrying the emotion. Nicely done! _________________________ -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it.

It has a haunting, bleak quality to it that makes it captivating, for me personally. I'm pretty rusty on my Civil War knowledge (they don't really teach that in the Canadian curriculum) so I had to Google what Antietam was to properly understand the context here. I wouldn't change a thing on this one - thanks so much for sharing _________________________ Cheers, Deryk

Endless material for sad songs - I can relate to your Civil War interest. Very good writing and production on this. Robert

The mix sounded very good on our monitors. Sad but enjoyable.... It would make a wonderful track for a CW film. String production all the way around!

The sparse arrangement to your spoken work is perfect. My brother is an expert on the Civil War. If you ever get over here we will have to get together with him. _________________________ I'm the best man at my buddy's second wedding.

Arrangement/narrative/performance all combine to make a sad and authentic tale of woe. I THINK you might be well served swapping the spelling from tendered to tended but you may have an interpretation or definition that is canetoad rather than cockroach. WELL done. _________________________ Cheers rayc "What's so funny about peace, love & understanding?" - N.Lowe Pop on over to The Recording Rebels for positive, honest commentary, critiques and support. https://therecordingrebels.com
