And the auto-tune/chorus effect on the vocal is a great choice. It reminds me of the band 10cc. Hrm... I'll definitely need to re-do the vocals at some point. I'm just no good at layering vocals! Thanks for the positive feedback!

Hello, David
Very nice tune with great orchestration! The beginning of melody is really good. I am a big fun of orchestral sounds. Your orchestration of solo violin, French horn, oboe is modest but very brilliant and comfortable. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

This is a really nice piece. I like the way it builds. Lots of good stuff here. I love the horns. Them and the strings give this a very ellegant sound.

David,
You've done a wonderful job with this.
The orchestration is fantastic... lush and very, very tastefully arranged. It must have taken hours and hours to get this so precise and so seamlessley integrated.
From start to end, my attention was focused on what I was hearing. When the ending arrived, I blinked because it seemed like I'd only started listening a few seconds earlier. I don't know how you did it but you managed to make time stand still for me for three minutes! Amazing!!
All the best, Noel

I love the horns. Them and the strings give this a very elegant sound. Hi, Samuel. I love the horns, too! I also tried to sneak in an english horn - which is neither English nor a Horn - but I ended up using an oboe instead. Maybe next time. Thanks!

Obviously, I tried to create a build and flow to the song. But I think another factor was the I put this song together backwards, starting with the backing tracks, then adding BiaB to sweeten it, figured out a melody, and finally wrote the lyric. So I think that had a lot to do with how well the parts locked in together. Where a BiaB track sounded good, I turned it up, if only for a measure or two. Where it clashed, I just took it out. From start to end, my attention was focused on what I was hearing. That's what every songwriter wants to hear, thanks!

Great progressions and harmonies with this! Really dig the piano. Well done! Thanks, Joe. It's always pleasant to drop a BiaB track in and find that it's playing exactly what's needed in a song. You're welcome! - Glad you're enjoying the program!
Cheers, Joe

David, We don't believe we actually ever heard you sing We do remember some vocaloid like recordings in the past. This is really good! A 70s/Dan Fogelberg kind of sound. Beautiful harmonies as well. Rob and Anne-Marie

We don't believe we actually ever heard you sing Hi, Rob and Anne-Marie. That's 'cause I don't sound as good as you two. I've actually sung on some other songs, but this is one where I've actually put some work into the vocals. So you haven't missed much. We do remember some vocaloid like recordings in the past. Sometimes it's hard to find quiet time around the house. Right now, my daughter is doing dishes, my son is loudly and dramatically running a D&D campaign on his computer in the other room, and the heater is wooshing. I'm grateful for all of these, but it does make recording vocals difficult. This is really good! A 70s/Dan Fogelberg kind of sound. Thanks!

David,
This is a very enjoyable listen.
The chorus is excellent! Great sound. Nice vocals. Really nice orchestration...
Drums sound good, too...
Well done. There is something about this that brings to mind songs from the AM radio top 10 - late 60's maybe?
fj I agree with my friend Floyd. Excellent!!! I don't know that I've heard you sing before and now I wonder: WHY NOT??? Really beautiful, warm, feel good song. DO MORE!!! Take care. Greg

I don't know that I've heard you sing before and now I wonder: WHY NOT??? Hi, Greg. In all honesty: thank goodness for pitch correction. I'm an OK singer, but recording vocals has brought front and center many things I need to work on vocally. Thanks!
