Dear Forum Friends Greetings! I hope everyone is well and in a great mood. If not, I hope this tune helps. We call it "Keep Looking Up." It's a pop rock tune that reminds me of the optimism of some of the songs from the 1960s. Although I truly believe in the power of positive thinking, I often have to remind myself to focus on the good things in life and look forward to bright days. So keep looking up (unless there's a flock of birds overhead!) Here's the song link and website link https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=13703722https://soundclick.com/dcspacedogEnjoy. I hope to hear from you. SpaceDog

Dave, thanks for listening.
I figured it was time for a new picture.
Josie, I've been taking some production training and picked a few tips on vocal arrangement. Glad you found it inspirational.
VT. Thanks. Always good to hear from you.

SpaceDog,
I really like the feel of this - you really captured the mood of those songs from the 60s - excellent job!
Much enjoyed.

Tano. Thanks. Im glad you enjoyed it.
In case your interested,I recorded 5 tracks of clapping panned 2 right 2 left and one center then hit them with a little echo chorus. It was my first try at clap tracks.
Bob. Thanks for listening . It is always nice to hear your music as well.

Wow - what a tune! The chorus on this tune is incredible. I can honestly say by the second chorus I was singing along in my head. Not to mention, the arrangement as well as your vocal performance are both flawless. Fantastic work here - thanks for sharing ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)
Cheers, Deryk

Heh. I was thinking "the vocal sounds a bit bare..." when the harmony kicked in on the chorus. ![laugh laugh](/forums/images/graemlins/default/laugh.gif) Yep, you nailed that 60's upbeat sound.
