Hey guys...it was 15 years ago I retired from professional firefighting to become a full time pastor...I went from putting out fires to trying to start them in one fell swoop...the song I'm sharing is the first song I wrote after that move and my first solo recording (I had always had the comfort of leaning on other voices)...it's simple lyrically but captured my heart at the time...these are the original vocals but BiaB has helped me settle into the style I wanted for the song...this song is probably why I call my music "firesong"

Super vocal and outstanding lyrics

Great backing band

What's not to love!

Loved it.

As usual, nice voice and pleasant arrangement. Good write as well.

Sort of a Glenn Yarbrough vibe with the arrangement and vibrato. laugh

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

Hello Dan,
God blessed you with a wonderful voice.
Good song. Love the harmony. Reminds me of the Gatlin Brothers.

Wow, I really like that "putting out fires to trying to start them," Dan. And I really like this song, too. Vocals have that high level of passion that grabs the listener. You sing with such conviction and authority; you must be a terrific pastor.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Very nice! Very well put together.

Your lyrics and passionate vocals go well with the country backing tracks.

As a fiddle player, I love the fiddle backing from RealTrack 1753. Guess I'll have to check that out!

You have a nice, mellow band to accompany your smooth vocal.

The song's arrangement builds like a slow burning fire and the ending is very good.

What a fine first song to celebrate your transition from firefighter to pastor!

Well done,

J&B
