Brilliant song. The vocals just shine through with lyrics I wish I had have written ("We are concrete" - how true!). Love the orchestration and love Jame's flurries - real class! Love it!

Very nicely done lads and gals. I think Tom just stated it very well......completely agree!! Nice riffage there James and also the Mrs. D's vox was a perfect fit.
Well done everyone!!

I have to agree with Tom Daryl, this has you and your good lady stamped all over it.  As it happens that is not a bad thing.  Nice production job, some good guitar from young James.  All round worthy of a .


Thanks Wookster my mate. :)

Really nice tune Daryl.  I really like the simple Bass line, very effective.  Also really dig the guitar outro, very tasteful.  Mix sounds really good on my system, no crits.  Good job.




thanks a lot Mike - James did a great job on this

Congrats! 25! Excellent. Have you moved back to the UK?
The song is really good. When I heard the first two chords I thought, "I am the Walrus." The guitar has tasty parts too. The Mrs sounded great. (Yes - love getting the wife involved). The only crit I have is that you have a certain way that you process your vocal that gives you your sound. It seems like your processing is applied to the Mrs. I'm wondering how it would sound with the Mrs more open and natural?
Great work as always.


Thanks mate. Yes, I did wonder about Liz's vocal having a slightly different treatment. I'll have a play with it.

I don't think I've listened to your other "schtuff" so can't compare, but I really liked this song.  Great melody. Whenever I hear an interesting melody I always try to figure out what makes it so intriguing and in yours it's that little unexpected dip (...I can be sure of..) that grabbed me. Very nice!

Daryl,
  I really like the feel, the mood of this man, and at the end of the day You are trying to convey a feeling, an emotion and it does.  I think her vocal could be a little hotter. but I am sure that's subjective.  Nice synths, and guitar lead. ohhh. and harmony lead that at the end too.  Cool.  Good job man.
