Wonderful vocals as usual from Di.

Hey Gruverider...

Thanks a bunch! If Di hadn't heard me tinkering with it one day, it probably would still be in that dead folder! She sure did bring it to life! Thanks again!

I think the bass and the strings fit fine and the mix is very supportive of the emotive vocal.

Janice and I listen to a lot of music from the 30's and 40's -- Ella, Frank, Billie, Goodman's lead vocalists, etc., so a song like this reminds us of those classics and what it must have been like for this genre to have dominated radio and record sales.

You too have a genuine feel for the genre -- Di's vocal and the supporting production are in the pocket. Y'all are hitting the note. Great job!


Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more.

I also think that this is Di’s best to date. She was very expressively melodic and in fact she reminded me of Etta James.

Everything is perfect in this one and you two should be very proud of this.

Hi Al and Di,

Di, gosh I like your singing. There's something in your tone that's wonderfully warm and inviting. I'm also a great fan of the way you take a vocal line and sprinkle it with a dash of blues. Very, very nice.

I have to say that the arrangement of this song is Professional all the way (uppercase 'P' intentional). The choice of instruments and chords provides a terrific sonic canvas on which Di paints her vocals. I might be wrong but I thought I heard a few tasty IVm chords. These are not all that common in today's music but they can certainly add a really nice touch when employed discreetly.

"Complete Surrender" is a great listen.

More please!
Noel

Very nice song, professionally written, nice changes, and captures the mood of the lyric. I felt I was at a wedding during the 70's and the band was playing a Karen Carpenter song, slow dancing with my best girl.

Di's hummingbird vibrato and on-the-money intonation - I still can't get over it. Very nice tune, good changes. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Hope all is well.
