Oh yeah! We've always liked those early Beatle songs that were so obviously influenced by the Every Brothers.

For us you've, intentionally or not, nailed that feeling.

And along with the feeling is a fine write, vocal performance and production.

Nice!!

This is a good song.
I like the mix, your vocal is up front, smoothly sung and well performed.
In fact, there's a melodic vocal smoothness that reminds me of the song "How Long" by Ace back in '74. (that's a compliment :))

The only aspect that does not appeal to me is the vocalizing 'la la's' at the end.
I think it would sound much better if you just repeated:
"Love conquers all, they say
Just give it one more day
Before you throw it all away"....then end on that or as you see fit.
Or, the same melodic line but by an axe or other lead instrument.

I hope you receive my comments as intended.....respectfully.,
This is just my take on a good tune.

Well done Bobeth......I like it.




Wayne,


Thanks for the comments. The "la-las" at the end were just ad-libbed. Penny hates them too! grin

Bob

Chuckle....
Hey....I never said 'hate'. smile
Do tell Penny Hi for me.

I just think they don't fit and actually detract from the song's cool vibe/performance.

Did I mention I thought it was a cool song? smile

Thanks for responding.....back to it.

Hi, Bob !

This was really nostalgic
all through ! Sounds of
the sixties yes, but put
so delicately in new form
by you !

I love this kind of music
and your tune and singing
was just superb !

Cheers
Dani

Nice acoustic guitar work in this.

floyd,


This one is a throw-back to those times. Thanks for listening and commenting.

Great vocal harmony and hillert guitar! Everything about this is a joy!

Great track and a very authentic 60s radio sound, right down to the La La ending.

Lots of fun!

Cheers, ROG.



ROG,


Thanks for the kind words. That Everly/Early Beatle sound was what I was aiming at - with that live feel.

Bob,

This is great! I've quoted Kenny because he said exactly what I was thinking as I listened. You took me back to the sound of some my earliest musical memories. I really enjoyed the song.

All the best,
Noel
