A very interesting sound and quite a clever mash up of styles.
Excellent composing.

You always display a lot of creativity in your music, which I really appreciate. I love words, so your little plays on them are cool. Keep up the good work.

Nice band! We love to choose and pick RT's for a unique mashup.
The vibraphone was nice.
The write is interesting and evocative and well delivered by your vocals.
A very strong chorus.
Cool drums and percussion also.
And it's all shining with a fine mix.
Lots of good things!
Enjoyed it,
J&B

Another creative and enjoyable venture from you.
An unpredictable melody on the verses ( with surprises in the lyrics too) over a terrific smooth rhythm bed. Vibraphone sounds are really good.
Bump this again if you add those steel drums!
Robert Thanks Robert for another great review from you I'm glad you enjoyed my venture! I'll try to make a steel drummed version as soon as possible. Janne

Very original.

I think your statement "more like a summer painting"... Aptly describes the vivid artistic images dwelling within your lyrics... Actually from a artistic painter's point of view... In the bed of my dreams
on the sheets I'm dyeing. Makes perfect sense to me... It leads right into visual painter's images of the 2nd verse... Really cool lyrics, at least, to my eyes. I'll be waiting for the update with "the new steel drums". Thanks Jim for your kind words I'm really glad that you understood so well the artistic landscape of my lyrics! Yep, keep on waiting the steel drums. Janne

You really add to the success of this User Showcase forum! Thanks again... Thanks Jim, I truly appreciate your words. And this is really a great forum - always pleasure to come back because of the positive attitude here And by the way, I have now updated my song with two shiny new realtracks: Marimba #3523 SteelDrums #3522 the marimba just adds some small details, but the steel drum is more dominant in the second verse (and present also at the end of the second chorus). BIAB 2020 is a great RT update - just can't wait to use the new gospel choir, ska punk and brit rock RTs  Janne

Cool to hear those steel drums in there, Janne.
(I thought they could use some more reverb).
