    Thanks John... I just finished this rough mix, and my ears are fried... I'm glad it sounds ok...

    Robbie... I am so glad your son is ok... My kids are all grown now, but I do know, and remember what you're going through...
    Thanks for listening...

    Yeah, just got home... Thank God he was just full of crap? Like his old man!

    Sounded great when I listened earlier from the Hospital? However, I believe it is a mistake to remove all BGV... I personally enjoyed them very much? I know some people bioched about the autotuning... But I think it sounded good? And without any BGV, I believe there's a hole (personally) Don't get me wrong, it is still excellent! I just hear it with BGV... But I hear everything with BGV? So... BUT STILL! This really needs the BGV!! :-)

    I loved this tune.

    Great performance and recording. I dug the BV's. I didn't hear any AT artefacts, but maybe I didn't listen.

    Anyway, very enjoyable to listen to.

    Thanks for sharing,

    I'm not sure what you're talking about... I didn't remove any BGV's... I added a bunch though...
    I didn't use any Autotuning either... anyway, I'm glad all is well with your son...
    Thanks again for the feedback...

    Frank, this is one of your classic songs.  I love it the way it is, and I think you have a winner on your hands.  Congrats.  Being a self producer, it sometimes takes courage to start over, but you succeeded.

    All the best,

    Frank, I'm not sure why you re-did this from scratch.  Sounded great before, sounds great now.  Hard to compare, as I listened to the 2 versions on different equipment.  Either or, it's still a great tune.

    Frank,
     
    No feedback except to say that this was thoroughly enjoyable.   Still a great song like v1 but a bit more texture, love the guitar work.

    The best thing about this thread is that "theultimatemisicsnob" has not commented on it? And I think that makes it "even better..."

    Hi Frank,

    Sorry I missed the first version but this is just great!  A beautiful song, an outstanding vocal performance and a flawless production.

    Great guitar playing, too.  Love it!

    Just realized that the first version is still here.  I'm listening to it right now and it sounds great, too.

    But I like this version better

    A beautiful song and a great production.  I agree that it is great vocal on this.  How did you do the bgv?  Is it real or a plug in?  I'm pretty sure some of them are you.  Maybe?   I asked on the last post but it's done.  I think the bgv is wonderful.  The theme and the music are just beautiful.

    Ok, I took it all out :-) I was just having fun.  (trying) But I realized in the light of a new day that different people define that in different ways. I meant no offence, never do? But humor is just one of those things? :-) And my sence is not normal by any strech (raises hand)

    Ok, I can hear them now, sounds great. The only thing that would make this better would be some black chicks. It has that kind of a vibe.

    At first I thought this would be a cover of the Moody Blues song by the same name.  Would love to be in a bar somewhere watching your band play this.  Truly just a great song, production, everything!  Really in awe how wonderful this song is!

    Thanks Robby... we are going to try out some some female vocalists on this tune...
    My voice was meant to be just a scratch demo...
    it was always intended for a lady singer...
    I agree some black (or white) girls would sound good on the BGVs...

    ATS, I haven't heard anything from the MBs in the last 50 years... LOL...
    I really appreciate your nice feedback...
    Thanks for listening...
