I usually get around to writing a song for my wife just before her birthday.This one looks back to the road trip we took through her country(Thailand) after our wedding. I tried to make some of the details general in a personal way and hope you enjoy whatever the images conjure. On a recording note-some challenges of space lately took me into a closet for the vocal-I can hear the difference and don`t mind if you do.

This is such sensitive writing, in every way - from the lyrics to the music and to the performance of it. For me, the lyrics just make it fly ... I've rarely seen such accomplished yet gentle, sensitive writing ... but everything about this song is just beautiful. What a love song.

The arrangement and mix is the first thing that pops out.
Very poetic - I enjoyed the journey!

Stefan Thank you, Stefan. To be honest I can hear places where the vocal quality seems to drop- I blame that unfamiliar closet- but appreciate your positive comments. Robert

Robert,
Your vocal just fits this song. The harmonies are very nice. There is a lot of ingenuity in the chord progression as usual. The influence of The Byrds can be felt in some places. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Very nice, I got a quick wiki education about prayer wheels and watched a few videos before listening. I always enjoy your work, sometimes lines are cryptic to me but that is my experience with most poetry I read. I got the gist - "steer the other way when dogs are at our heels I`ll help you turn these prayer wheels." That was clear to me, I think. I'd love a line by line clarification but that is asking a lot. Nice to hear you again, closet or not. Beautiful work, hope your wife was thrilled with it.

Hi Rob ...
This a wonderful listen! I like the "busy" drums as they push the song along with a gentle force. The vocal harmony on the chorus is wonderful! This is my favorite of yours that I've heard. That was w real treat! Wishing you and your wife the best ... and Happy birthday to her. This is a great present for her ... and the rest of us. be safe ...

Very nice poetic description of Thailand, gentle band and vocals. "tires spin and heal our promise turns prayer wheels", very beautiful lines.
Just a thought, I noticed that a prayer wheel sound could be used as an exotic percussion instrument.

I'd love a line by line clarification but that is asking a lot. Nice to hear you again, closet or not. Beautiful work, hope your wife was thrilled with it. Being married to a Thai Buddhist means lots of temple visits on any tour ... and some of the prayer wheels are huge,taking effort to turn...while walking around barefoot on burning hot tiled floors! I`m glad you got something from the lyrics. I guess my writing is often a little closer to impenetrable than obvious on the scale- too late to change my style now. Thank you for your listen and comments. Robert

I wouldn't change your writing a lick. I think you've got something magical, and so glad we get to enjoy it here.

You do fantastic work Robert! I love the instrumentation you have assembled here, especially the guitars! It's a beautiful tune with your reliable and expected high quality lyrics! Like Floyd often says "I'm a fan" Thanks, Torrey.

Some day I`ll look into how to deal with separating parts of the drum track to eq for things like that kick ( I can hear what you do, so that`s a start!). Thanks for the thumbs up on the song. A very pretty song. The lyrics are poetic. Nice work. Thanks for listening! Robert

Robert,
Terrific vocal on this—you wring every bit of emotion out of this. The melody is really interesting in the verses, somewhat elongated in spots, going places I didn’t expect--engaging--and really works to set up the chorus and the pretty harmonies you have going on there. Great mix, production and very poetic write. Very well done, Robert. Hope you wife loved it!
Best regards,
Deej

Greg Greg, Thank you-especially nice to hear my closet vocal recording passes the test, as I`m consigned there for the duration of current affairs! Lovely song. It sounds like the kind of song that would play over a montage of beautiful moments of a couples life in a movie. I really enjoyed listening to it - really liked the vocals and especially the harmonies in the chorus. Richard, That`s a good idea on the video; it might be necessary to make one to pursuade my wife to listen more than once! Thanks for your positive review. Robert,

"we left them singing guitars sliding and haunting the dawn where shanty children drag their wings to the Highway of Kings"
What great setup for what follows...
Closet or whatever your vocals sound really good to us. Perhaps a bit higher key and or different 'verb? Dunno but the lead and harmonies are separated from the mix in just the right way...in our opinion of course. And those nice vocals are supported by an excellent band and mix.
"steer the other way when dogs are at our heels"
Indeed.
Enjoyed it!
Happy belated b'day to your wife and be well,
J&B

Dear Mr. Cordrey... The fact that you said you "usually get around to writing a song" for your wife every year on the occasion of her birthday celebration is just a stunning, exhilarating thing to behold and contemplate: a love that marks its annual renewal with the ritual presentation of the gift of song to remind your wife of your obviously undying commitment to her. What on Earth could be a more affirmative declaration of the utter seriousness with which you took the vows that announced your intent to share your life with her, forever, and ever??? At this moment I am certain that I cannot recollect witnessing, or hearing about, even, such an eternalizing gesture of devotion being offered to the spouse of any married man I know, in or outside of my family -- though I know it could happen, I suppose, to anyone . Your heart reveals itself in your lyrics for Prayer Wheels: "I will bless and honour your days..." Mr. Cordrey, that's almost unspeakably beautiful, sir. You could have simply repeated that lyrical line over, and over, and over, again, until the music ran out, and still have made the same impact on me that the entire lot of verses would have had. The music you composed is as illustrative of the moods and varieties of your loving feelings as the surveying of the cycle of the four seasons would be if we could view them within minutes instead of months. That emotional effect is, of course, indestructably tied to the continuous flow of poetry in your lyrics. There are love songs, and there are love songs, but this song goes above and beyond that category in ways you plainly know more about than me. LOREN

J&B, The song lyrics began with that first verse- thank you for the approval there! The key is my go to Eb; any difference in the vocal must be the more confined recording space...and who knows, maybe I`m less restrained in a dark closet! I used the Ozone Imager to spread harmony around the lead. I appreciate the good things you heard in this.

Wonderful imagery as always. Wheels and wheels is precious. I think a highway with the name of Rama some number or other came to mind. The rest is just guessing, but not at all unfamiliar, especially the "knots". You have well succeeded in delivering such personal observations into something anybody with a heart can feel. Very much enjoyed.
I'd tell you to stay in the closet, but...
Sounds good.

Thanks Tangmo! The highway we were on ( with running horses) wasn`t the big named one you mention - up north past Mae Hong Son there`s an out of the way Royal property with beautiful gardens we stumbled on and were allowed to tour.

Video: Enhanced Melodists in Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows®!
We've enhanced the Melodists feature included in Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows!
Access the Melodist feature by pressing F7 in the program to open the new MultiPicker Library and locate the [Melodist] tab.
You can now generate a melody on any track in the program - very handy! Plus, you select how much of the melody you want generated - specify a range, or apply it to the whole track.
See the Melodist in action with our video, Band-in-a-Box® 2024: The Melodist Window.
