Dani, This is another showcase of your understanding of the beach boys vibe. A great use of modulation. Fantastic falsetto harmonies. Beautiful job. Tom

Brian Wilson is still going strong after what I´ve heard and he is a genius and the founder of the surf type music I´ve always been weak for !:))

Hi, Rob and Anne-Marie !
How nice of you to bestowe such kind words on my performance !
I´ve used to falsetto- singing as I´ve done it all my life and in fact it is many times de facto easier than singing with a breast voice that in my case normally is kinda low !
Cheers Dani

A nicely constructed song. The harmonies work a treat. Some of the melodic phrases are def. Pet Sounds coolness. I was distracted though by "roon". At 1st I thought it was a typo but it was repeated... maybe it's rune or possibly lion but neither fit the context. I'm not sure what it should be so my mind has been distracted (I must be ADH).

Dani, Your best surfin song yet! Pretty melody and lyrics. You have an amazing vocal range probably the widest here with such warm smooth tones throughout.

Hi Dani!
This is awesome! It's definitely my new favorite among your Beach Boys themed songs!
The vocals are tight, the lyrics are very similar to the kinds of lyrics in Brian Wilson's early songs, and the chord pattern was also very interesting and appropriate to the style! As mentioned by others, the melody is also original and good for the genre, and I think the crowning glory is your choice of harmonic notes.
I have a TCHelicon vocal harmonizer for live gigs, and it's overwhelming how many different kinds of harmonies can be used in a song. This harmony isn't the standard 3rd up that you tend to hear on 75% of songs! As a barber shop guy, I'm sure you are far more aware of harmonic possibilities than most of us, and your Beach Boys series is a good showcase for that knowledge. (This song especially)
GREAT JOB!

Hi, Pat !:))
I am feeling humble by your more than kind comments and want to thank you for them so very much. I do not think I am the one on the forum that has the widest range but I did discover my falsetto already at young age and have been practizing singing in many voices from way back in school times.
Thank you Pat for your most kind words !
Cheers Dani
