Hi All, Here's something new and a bit folky… This is called Falling Horses. Falling horses Running water Late days in October cold Mourning losses Fading mortar This barn is growing so old But over and over in the meadows of gold He runs on for days where the grasses still blow And every now and then he shakes off the rain With a swing of the mane Falling horses Down the mountain The slow melt of April's last snow Changing courses Smart transporter This day the wicked wind blows But over and over in the meadows of gold He runs on for days where the grasses still blow And every now and then he shakes off the rain With a swing of the mane All BIAB Tracks: 2474: Bass, Acoustic, Held, Ev 085 2505: Piano, Electric, HeldChords 085 2914: Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Folky16thsBrent RealDrums: PopPromiseEv16 Snare on 4 As always - thanks for listening! Bob

Hello Bob,
Love the sound of that guitar picking. Fantastic backing track. Intersting lyric, as well. I enjoyed the whole production. If anything, it was too short. I found myself wanting to hear more.

Very cool song, Bob!
(was hoping you would be popping back in soon...)
A great sound! Love the BAND! I would guess you processed that guitar in some way? It sounds so big. An excellent mix.
Your vocal processing on this really adds to the big sound, too. I like it! The whole thing has a "now" Americana sound.
Well done.

What an awesome song Bob. The intro was so cool. Acoustic in the backtrack was outstanding. This has to be one of your best vocal and lyric. A different favorite of mine

Very nice folk song, the chorus melody is especially beautiful. Always nice to hear that lovely RT #2914 in different kind of songs. Very poetic and lively lyrics. Mix and vocals are top quality.

Love it!
First of all, great to see you back here with a new song!
This Is definitely one of your best, you had my attention right from the first couple of bars. Very emotive vocal and great tone.
Track sounds great also, that guitar! Also curious if you added additional processing to that.
Only complaint is it seemed to end too soon, you could maybe try and extend that outro by a couple of bars.
Excellent song and performance, enjoyed very much!

Enjoyed this a lot. Like some of the others have noted, the lyrics projected nice imagery.

Bob, loved this work...nice abstract imagery in the lyric, and I think your decision about using a simple, calming folky-type of style is just right for the messaging.
I did find one thing quite curious… I noticed in your verse that you matched lines 3 and 4 in verse 1 with lines 3 and 4 of verse two. I’m talking about the rhyming scheme. Did you consider switching them around so that you would have “losses/courses” in the same verse, getting a more tight-knit rhyme? Just curious!
Enjoyed it very much!

Floyd,
Thanks very much.
For the guitar, I ran two identical tracks - one panned right with a consistent volume and the other set right in the middle with a lower volume, except in the break, where this track served as the lead guitar. I also widened the reverb on the guitars to give them additional space.
The vocal was cut right up against the microphone for the verses and pulled back slightly for the choruses - I wanted a very intimate sound. This approach helped to increase the overall attack. There are also some lightly tracked background vocals on the choruses.
Thanks again and glad you liked this one.
Bob

Bob,
Wonderfully cinematic lyrics - I love that kind of awestruck spiritual feel you bring to the chorus.
Really nice close vocal and no one does the spare BiaB arrangement better.
Beautiful!

Your song tracks always sound good but ... I think this has a sound all its own. Everyone talks about the acoustic guitar but the bass is what blew me away from the first note. Outstanding audio production!
