Funny and catchy pop song, I'm glad you almost managed to finish it wink Great vocals and harmonies, the mix is nicely light and airy.

Steve I think you just described my high school years. Fortunately I outgrew that. Now that I am about to retire I want to get back to that frame of mine lol. Loved the lyric and always an awesome vocal. Super fun backtrack.

Hi Steve ...

My wife would argue that I'm the biggest procrastinator in the history of mankind. I do it quite well! As I told Di the other day, "I was gonna procrastinate on the job you wanted me to do, but I think I'll wait until tomorrow to start that process."

Her response is not appropriate to retell here ... after all, this is a family forum!

Good stuff, Steve. So much fun and absolutely perfectly presented. Totally loved it!

Wishing you the very best ...

Alan

Love the clever funny write, all the "add ons," and the cameos.

As Janice said "eight years was well worth the wait" smile

The mix makes it sound like a live venue featuring a well honed band.

What to say about the vocals? How about...excellent as always.

I'd be pro crastinating for about a decade if I tried to put something like
this together...and make it work this well.

Lot's of fun Mr. Young

THAT was cool. Well thought out and imaginative. I was smiling all the way through and that ending..... wink



And I absolutely agree..... there's nothing on my schedule today that can't be done just as well tomorrow.

Hi Steve,

very, very, very funny! And that fun is perfectly wrapped in that gorgeous tune. Everything sounds good to me and your singing is great, too.

And most of all ... think I'm gonna tell you tomorrow, got to think about new adjectives. Or maybe the day after tomorrow...

Nightynight,

Stefan

Hi Steve,

What a listen!

Once again, you've manage to surpass what I define as "excellent music". I am a huge fan of your ability to write, to sing, to arrange, to orchestrate and to produce. Your musical skills are truly admirable. I love the way you lyrically play with "pro" and "procrastinator".

I'm still over the moon that my name is sandwiched between two musical heavy-weights such as floyd jane and George Strait! That's probably the closest I'll ever get to fame smile

Thank you for seriously making my day. I'm still smiling!

All the best,
Noel

I've been intending to respond to all of your wonderfully kind comments on this one but, well, you know...

I think it is so ironic that shortly after finishing and posting this song, an onslaught of life hit me head on! Mostly good things, and I am okay, but just all the stuff that life is made of teamed up at once and demanded all my time. I am slowly but surely getting a handle on my time, and intend to spend more of it with you fine folks.

I have commented many times that my forum friends here have become like an extended family to me over the past decade. Over this time, we've lost some really good friends, and gained even more good friends. I have seen some mediocre writers and performers develop into really good producers over this time, largely due to the phenomenal tools that Band In A Box gives us. Some of us don't really even care how good we are, we just love music, and BB gives us the opportunity to release a fresh expression of human emotions, and that's a good thing.

In this Thankgsgiving season, I would like to express my gratitude for all the kindness and goodness that is consistently displayed in this forum. I have visited other forums over the years, some good and some not so good. But this forum is overwhelmingly the most welcoming, and caring that I have seen. Thank you to all my friends here for giving me a place to park and share my creations with yours.

And thank you to Mr. Gannon, and all the great staff at PG Music. You guys are the best!

- Steve
