Thanks Herb and Frank, again it's all based on construstive feedback. When you think something is done, you've only looked at it from your perspective, and after 2 or 3 people say, "Dude!?" you have to ask yourself, are they all wrong? :-) Of course I normally answer YES!! SCREW UM! But in this case? I took everyone's advise.

Thanks Reece,

I was in fact trying to give Calista the "Calista Flockheart treatment" (trying to fatten her up a bit). There are in fact, multiple copies of her going on even when it's just one part, some moved a weence this way, or effected slightly differently, so that did contribute to the phasy effect you wre commenting on. I may have done if differently if I could have recorded her here at Smiladon through the U87/Avalon vt737 or ua610 signal chain, but I had to make the most of what I had so I got "creative" :-)

It's good to be consistent, but it's FUN to try diffent things! Thanks for listening again and for your kind words.

I'm late to this, but this is a very nice song, and the production is very good. Sounds to me like the intensity fades a little right at or after the key change, which for me was somewhat anticlimactic. The strings sound truncated at the very end as well; IMHO, they should fade with the piano decay.

Other than that, a great collaboration. Congratulations to all involved!

To much time is spent on the overall production of things, and how things are done, instead of the bottom line : "THE SONG"...........

I know that sounds crazy but : "You either like it or you don't". The reason I say that is because if you were sitting around a campfire and someone played a song then : You either liked it or you didn't, that's where music counts, real moments and all this anti-production stuff is nothing but bologna, and I hope I spelled that right!

Music is an expression of moments in time like John Mellancamp said in one of his songs : "Moments in time we share together". And you can spend too much time on the production side of things.

What's wrong with just wanting to be heard sometimes? When I post anything that's what I am trying to do, maybe that will explain a few things. Perfection is something that is a RICH PERSON'S problem. I wish it were mine for my family, but it's not!
This was a GREAT PERFORMANCE, and MIXDOWN and I like it a lot! Excellent expressions on all counts!!!!

Thanks for the listen all who were involved!
