Moving On - a new original song

That the lubbliest, jubbliest and bubbliest choon of yers yet mate.
 
Too bad about the bass, though. 

Terrific little tune there, Daryl.  It just fits the mood so, so well.  Sparkling production work as usual.

I reay like my voice on this huan.

I bet Einstein would have liked this when he left.
 
Really cool all the way through! Dan summed it up nicely.
 
I'd vote for a fade out ending.

As always, nice job, Daryl!  Sorry about the exit and into the Brexit but I hope you continue to be nearby in the forum.  Ugh!  Setting up a studio in a new room.  Days, weeks, months, before you get use to the sound (unless you mix on headphones)  you'll be needing us to tweak your tunes:)

Excellent song Daryl, perfect slice of pop. Why are you coming back, if that's not a difficult question to answer on a forum?

I listened to many of your songs earlier this morning and a couple weeks ago.  Rocky poppy, rock... with a twist of Wanka....
Your style is Really Cool!
 
I'm kind of staying away from the "mix critic thing"... :)
 
Peace!

I just about love your sound near to death.  It picks me up when I'm down.  Turns my frown upside down. Heck I'm happy as a clown...over the moon, after hearing one of your tunes.  Keep em coming.  And don't go writing anything macabre, depressing or cringe inducing.  That's my job:-)

Cheers mate - very kind of you :)

Great stuff. is it wrong that I have kids TV in my head for the chorus - Roobard and Custard, Grange Hill?!

Bittersweet, emphasis on sweet! (Perfect mix, too.)

You did a great job on it little feller

That's great!
 
My only "corrective" critique is in the vocal treatment....   there's a slight touch of .. and I mean just a touch...of presence in the lead vocal that could come off as harsh on some systems.  I'm gonna guesstamate  2.5 to 5 k - somewhere in there.  I wouldn't cut it because its really appropriate - I would search for a multiband solution to pull those back when they pop out - and then in turn get a db or 2 more in lead vocal level so all your perfect the lyrics are totally audible! 
 
for example - say your song gets in a movie - and we watch it on our flatscreen with crappy speakers... that tend to be very harsh - it will really accentuate this area.. firing sibilance into any innocent bystander within earshot
 
A "creative" critique in the vocal would be to add a dash of pre-delayed verb around the lead vocal as its a little dry ... which.. I do like... but occasionally its slightly uncomfortable...    Also - those amazing background vocals... I would look into treating some of the passages differently than the lead vocal as your perfect song progresses.
 
For example:  There's a a harmony vocal in your verse, I think it blends very well.  Then - at 46 seconds, there a minor key change and there's a different snare sound that's got less high end and a really cool verb trail - I would attempt to change the harmony vocal somehow at this point  to tell the listener even further that the journey is "moving on"... and then the chorus (55 seconds) I would open up the harmony vocals even further.  Sometimes when I track vocals, Ill wind up with 3 or four tracks that contain everything.. leads and harmonies.  Then - Ill go through and distribute the vocals to different tracks via the song structure.. say "ramp bgv".. "chorus bgv"  or at 2:23 "I'm Still" -  Id try to do something cool with that.
 
I think its an awesome song!!  Great job!
