Hi Ed
Your vocals are hitting it for six (cricket parlance) . I think in the USA you say hitting it out of the park . I could not think of another way to compliment your excellent vox.

Yep , sounding good.

Keep 'em coming Ed (btw do you do requests? Closer Walk with Thee )

cheers
Gary.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Thanks, Gary. I have this one, that to my surprise out performed the rest on Drooble. It is instrumental & about time for it to get the vocal track.

Hey, David. it is:
V1 Ch1 -- Instr. Piano
V2 Ch2 -- Instr. G.
V3 Ch3 -- Vocal
If you were to rearrange, what would you? I confess, my arrangements today are based on what I feel are the best takes. Not a good system. Thanks for the comment.

Just because a song falls outside the norms doesn't mean it should be changed. smile

Generally, there's nothing wrong with having a short vocal song. I'd have probably dropped the long instrumental, or put it at the end.

But would it have been an improvement? I wouldn't say that.

I didn't comment because I was complaining, just that I was surprised.

Unless you've got someone who skips your version because they don't find vocals in the first half - and that's not likely a real problem - I see no reason to change it.

Thanks Floyd. Thanks, Scott.
I'm finding a work flow -- do a public domain, do an original. Going with that.

Hi edshaw,

Nice very catchy composition. It is soft in the chosen arrangement. It's pleasant and well done.

Ed,

It’s a pretty arrangement, and your vocal is really strong (though I’m wondering if it should sit back in the mix just a little bit—it’s a little too forward on a couple of notes). I think for me among the best I’ve heard from you.

I do think David has a point about the long “intro”—not sure the casual listener will stay with it (unless they are a fan of instrumentals). Mind you, it works as is. If I were to think about an alternative way to do it, I’d shorten the intro (maybe to 30 seconds or so) and then use the break after the first verse (at 2:32) to go into a longer instrumental, finishing up with that last verse and ending the song just how you do.

As David said, that’s not necessarily an improvement, just a different approach to cater to the dwindling attention span of many of today's listeners.

Good stuff, Ed!

All my best to you,

Deej
