Doug - Appreciate the listen.   Sorry for the delayed responses, have been pretty swamped with work:(.
 
Eph221-  Thanks, appreciate it.
 
Lynn - Thank you, we were going for the vintage vibe with a little bit of modern sound added for seasoning.   Also a big fan of your music.
 
Makke - Appreciate the listen.
 
Wayfarer - Thank you, always a compliment if you are not a fan of the original artist or song.    I always know a good singer when I don't get nausious listening to Against All Odds in some of those singing competitions:)
 
Bob - Good to hear from you.   I think the vocals on this were really spectacular and make the track work.   The guitar parts were not super difficult but the mix was a bear:)
 
Regards

Great job!   There's a lot of nuance in there, both the vocals and music...   And while it's faithful to the original, no doubt, there's just enough "different" mixed in to not be the original.    If that makes any sense.

Steve,
 
Thanks for the comment.    That is what we were going for so it makes perfect sense:)   
 
Tempo mapped to the original and then started constructing the parts starting with drums and bass.  I think the mix is a little more modern, the original was all midrange with very little bottom end, i.e., added some more kick and bass than the original had.   The guitars are very similar to the original.    I really liked Bacco's approach to the vocals (both lead and backing).  Not an easy song to sing.
 
Appreciate the listen.

Regards
