Great work Bob... I agree with Scotty... I think it could benifit from a chord change-up... a bridge, or middle-eight...
Sounds great...

GREAT JOB! Nice change from the norm. . . but the vibe is all you.  That's what I like about your music you change it up a bit but as soon as you hear those rock pipes your thinking that's Bob.   Mix sounds great but, here comes my nit.  The acoustic intro when your vocals come in you can hear each breath before you sing.  Maybe cut them out but when percussion kicks in it sounds like classic Bob/mint.  I really enjoyed this and would hope this is only the start of more to come.  KUDOS!

Hey, Scotty,
 
Thanks buddy, as always, I really appreciate your valuable input and good ideas!
 
I actually pondered a short guitar solo as a bridge just to break things up, I may give it a try for the remix.  I'm really happy that you like the song, your opinion means a great deal to me.
 
Thanks again for all your support on my music and you friendship, and have a great holiday weekend!

Hi, Thomas,
 
Thank you very much for checking the song out and also your good observations and very kind words!
 
Yes, I actually added the drums and bass at the last minute as an afterthought, because I intended to just go with the acoustic guitars, vocals and strings, and I figured a drummer on this style of song probably wouldn't kick in with a fill or snare roll like a rock or metal drummer would.  LOL, so I just jumped right in with the straight beat.  I'll have to think of a way to try to smooth out the beginning of the drums.
 
Many thanks for giving this a listen and for your very good input, best wishes!

Hi, Sunny,
 
Thank you for giving the song a listen, and for your very kind words!
 
Yes Sir, as I mentioned to Thomas above, I actually added the drums (and bass) at the very last minute as an afterthought, using my usual rock kit, but then I intentionally pulled the "punch" out of the drum bus because my normal effects chain on the drums was overpowering the very sparse mix of the acoustic guitars and strings.  Maybe I'll try to experiment a bit and shoot for a happy medium.
 
Thanks again, Sunny, I'm very grateful that you like the song, and really appreciate your input and observations!

Bob, No nits on the mix. Nice and clean and vocal performance is really great. It does get repetitious after a bit, with the verse and chorus using the same melody. I'd suggest doing the verses in a softer voice. You could do it in almost a whisper and use the same range, or do it in a lower register, and use an almost spoken melody. If you did it like that, and use a sparser arrangent of just drums, bass and guitar, the chorus would have more impact when the pad comes in. Doing it that way would also really make that high harmony part in the chorus "pop". Randy
