Sweet song. Well sung, good write, good instrumentation and mix.

Just what you described - a love song - and it does the job well. laugh

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

Hi Bob,

I'm a long-time fan of your songwriting and performing. This is such a beautiful write. You always manage to find the best words to craft exceptional lyrics and then you create a fine melody for them to sit on. I've learnt a lot about songwriting from you over the years. I loved listening to this presentation.

Regards,
Noel

"I can't see my life
Without you being in it
Two have become one
And love grows by the minute"

Well, that grabbed us for sure.

Welcome back and man what a song!

Your rich vocal and those harmonies are over the top good.

Great band with a lovely acoustic guitar.

The mix simply sparkles on the KRK's -- outstanding.

Yeah, we liked it!

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks

MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:

There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:

1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track
