Hi, ol´friends ! Was planning on having a break but Floyd made me rethink and so I wrote this little love song dedicated to my ladyfriend Li Will You Not Take My Hand Soundcloud: http://soundcloud.com/dani-lindroos/will-you-not-take-my-hand Box: http://app.box.com/s/ao5y69x2adguzsqkt3vz8ztkyn4fhondRecorded and mixed with mixcraft 6, zoom H4n used as mic Style: Guara32.STY Guaracha with 3-2 clave pattern Instruments used: Bass: 34 Piano: 1 Drums: 1 Standard Drums Guitar: 25 nylon string guitar Vibes: 12 Warm Pad: 1267 .....and the lyrics are: WILL YOU NOT TAKE MY HAND (Dani 2015) Will you not take my hand I want to take you back to that sunny land where the sun will always shine every day, every night will be oh so fine Now let´s go back to the place where there´s seldom rain or snow come, let´s go back to the land where the good ol´palm trees grow Let´s fly right out of sight I want to take you there, where the sun shines bright and you´ll love to be in my caressing arms by the sunlit sea Now let´s go back to the place where there´s seldom rain or snow come, let´s go back to the land where the good ol´palm trees grow Let´s fly right out of sight I want to take you there, where the sun shines bright Will you not take my hand I want to take you back to that sunny land Saludos Dani

Excellent mix. Ah... those smooth Dani vocals - PERFECT for this type song!! You were meant for the sun and sand and palm trees...
Such joy and love in this write! We've missed ya, buddy.
A joy to listen to.
Great picture! That says it all....

Well thank you mr jane for doing us all a favor!
"Smooth" is back and we are all the better for it.
Like floyd said "such joy and love in this write" and it is delivered wonderfully with the vocal and the mix.
We enjoyed it!

This is a good one Dani. You've chosen just the right style for the song and your vocals are spot on.
Enjoyed my listen and glad to see you here on the forum again.

Dani, Yay! It's really good to see you back. There is no other Finnish crooner like you in the whole wide world  Who can go wrong with sun, sand, palms and vibes? This was a very pleasant journey. As I listened with my eyes closed, it was so very easy to picture myself on some sleepy South Pacific island. All the best, Noel

Yay, it is nicer to see and hear that you, my ol´friend, are going strong at the height of your songwriting and performing ability !:))
Now, my good friend,I feel humbled by your more than kind assessment ! Don´t know about the crooners over here but my friends used to call me el Cliff (Richard) del Pais Finlandes and that was a long time ago (over 5o years to be exact)! Grossly exaggerated statements, but back then it sounded nice :)) I have not overused my voice so I guess it is possible to keep on singing fairly well far into senior years ! It is important though that one keeps on singing and I do sing regularly with my barbershop friends ! Thank you Noel:))
Cheers Dani

Dani,
Really good to see you back! I've been out for a while, myself. I really like the feel on this one. Nice, relaxing love song. Good job on the mix.

Hi Dani,
As always a very romantic song in your very recognizable style. We think you're doing your best vocals here, so far.

I was going to write something, but Noel used my exact phrase! How nice for us that you're back!

Wonderful vocals (as usual). And like others mention, great choice of backing for the sun and sand and Palms. I am sensing Jamaica here.
