Hello, Alan

Very catchy and pop!
It is amazing that you've done this song in five hours.
The chord progression which makes me feel "Stand By Me" a little bit is very effective.
I think it is the royal road of pops.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

I hope Di is feeling better.
Best regards.

Wow, you nailed this! An amazingly catchy pop tune indeed. This is the kind of tune that could easily get stuck in my head on repeat (not a bad thing!).

A very, very well written song - thanks so much for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

Tom said it all.

We'll add that we are fans of the "two verse, chorus, no bridge and I'm outa here" songs grin

Of course there are a lot of exceptions but so many times this format says it all and says it well.

And you said it all and well!

Very nice!!

Hi Shigeki!

Thanks you very much. Yes, I started working on it (no lyric, no music) a7 3:30 am and finished it just before 8:45 am. I see your resemblance to "Stand By Me" although I'd not thought of previously. I aqppreciate your very nice words!

Alan

PS: Thank you for thinking of Di.

Hi Janne,

I appreciate all those nice things you said! I've been working on the voice - trying to get it a little raspier. Glad you noticed!

Hey Guys!

Well, that's mighty nice of you! And that's my favorite song template, too. I only use a bridge when I feel it's absolutely necessary - that's usually when something else needs to be said to pull everything together and an adjustment to the chorus or a verse won't get the job done. I truly appreciate the kind comments! Best to both of you.

Alan

Amazing that you did this in five hours! Takes me five weeks typically from start to finish.

Good song, I like that chord progression, very effective, and your vocal has a special quality about it.

Hope Di is feeling better soon!

Thanks a bunch, Dave! Glad you enjoyed those mentioned characteristics of the song. I've been working on my vocals - trying yo give them a little more "edge". Glad you noticed! Best to you,
