When it got to the chorus I remembered this track, you really sold it there and the emotion is carried.

Listening on crappy small speakers but it sounds good and the choice of instruments with their respective melodies sound excellent.

Really good rendition.

Whickity Wack! Thanks!! I basically did a tribute version based off of two of their versions, a live and a studio version (the production/arrangement) then it’s just a matter of listening to what was done and attempting to recreate it (WRT the instruments).  I put a little Bee Gee spin on the vocal performance too just for fun!
 
“Great job Robbay. Snare doesn't bother me. I think everything fits just right.”
Timaaaay! I’m sure it could be improved on? It always sounds different ITB to me? And now that it’s out, and I’ve hosed the project, I don’t have the patience to go back in and fix it.  Thanks for listening and for commenting!

I heard disco was making a comeback   Great orchestration, good tones.  Good vocals as usual but I think they need a little more punch, they seem to be too far back to me.   The harmonies are good, they could come up a tad too, they sound good.

You would rule the lounge with this one!  Daryl

As usual, the vocals are great!

the mix is a bit of a mess and the midi strings sound a bit harsh, but that's just one opinion..

Love it Robby, perfect choice for your voice. The Gibbs have been, until quite recently, very under-rated writers.

The drums are horrible btw..did anyone else mention that?

I've lost 40% of the hearing in my right ear, and that snare just comes through crystal clear baby. Whoa!

The vocals are great, but it sounds kind of midi-ish to me. It's almost too perfect IYKWIM. And that snare ... bro ... it's gotta go if you can swing it.

I used to do this song live back in the day. If I close my eyes, I'm right back there looking over the crowd, haze of smoke in the air, multi-colored lighting effect changing colors real slow, smell of stale booze, nicotine, and cheap perfume in the air.

Ah, the good old days.

:-) Good news! My mix was saved twice? One was hosed... The other? Well... I think I made it a lot better... I EQ'ed the vox, I added envelopes on the orchestra, I changed the overall limiter, I did a lot to it. I think it's better? But I am very biased..  I spent hours on it. It may have been better (for me) if I could not recover it.

Oh? And the snare? It sucks less :-D (I hope?) It's punchy? But it's not punching you in the side of your head? And it has more snap? And the drums overall are better (IMO) And the strings breath better? Along w/the whole orchestra. But again, I am very biased.. 

The new mix is up on my RN site @

www.reverbnation.com/rockinrobby

and at;

https://soundcloud.com/rockinrobby

At the top.

It's funny, there is a difference between the two. The RN version is "smoother." But the SCloud version is a bit truer to my mix? The soundcloud version is louder and clearer.

YES! Much better!!!! Those envelopes really did the trick.
