Marvellous!
I think the percussion is definitely 'now'. Not enough AutoTune for it to sound completely 'now'.
However, taking the 'now' out of the equation this is a fantastic song. Song composition, arrangement, and production are all as near perfect as I've ever heard coming out of my laptop speakers.
Cheers,
Terry.

Tim, I'm around -- just not as much as you noticed. I've been very busy on the music front. But I still do like to chime in here when I can.
Again - really nice track there!

This has a Chris Rea feel to it. Very much like something he would do.
It's got that hot, hazy, summer eve vibe. The guitar break is also very reminiscient of Chris Rea.

This is very good stuff Tim. I agree with Bub that the sidestick in the opening is a little distracting, just a personal thing though.  Thanks for sharing.

I think I heard an earlier incarnation of this. I LOVE this song, the tempo is perfect, it is simple yet full, nice melody and instrumentation. Beautiful!

Nice, love this. You always get a nice acoustic guitar tone.
Vocals..........."Sweet", love the use of delay.
The only thing I thought, Maybe the electric guitar needs to come up a tad.
But, great as is. Loved the song !
Enjoyed.............Tim

Dunno about "now" - mostly 'cos I'm not sure what "now" is any more, but I suspect that it's a bit long for "now". I mean, I wanna hear it all now, not like have to wait around for like five minutes for it to get to the bloody end innit ?
Joking aside - this is a stunning production for sure. I might be tempted to bring the lead up just a smidge if it were mine, but then again if it were mine it wouldn't sound this good in the first place. so I guess we should all just let you be the judge. Thanks for sharing - enjoyed this a lot.

Hi Tim,
This is great. I love the tune and really like the 'clicky' percussion stuff in the background.
The acoustic sounds amazing. Actually, everything sounds amazing. Beautiful.

I love this song! Great tunage!
The only thing I would do is make the hand drums a little lounder. I started checking my wires thinking I had a short of something. lol! Then I realized that noise never happens in rhythms. lol! Other than that, Very well done!

Tim,
Thank you for sharing your science project with the class.
Now we all know how a underground volcano turns into an island because of how this baby builds. Outstanding!
You managed to hit on two of my favorite things to listen to, a great sounding accoustic, and a gritty blues tone electric.
Well done!

This is an excellent one, young feller! Who is that masked musician? I'm listening on crap computer speakers and it sounds good, which generally means it really does sound good. It flows really well and has a nice, organic progression and a nice smokey vibe that is appropriate for this type of tune.

Thanks Dean. How crappy is crap? I like to mix for my laptop anymore. It's got pretty decent sound but the low end is a little bit not there just cause of the small speakers. But, I think it's a good barometer.
Thanks Daryl. Glad you liked.
Hey Freddy. Thanks. I missed you too:)
