Misha,

Cool opening with that electric guitar. Really creative in the production; nice effects and killer mix. There’s a lot going on here and you’ve weaved them together well. Well done!

Have a Happy New Year!

Regards,

Deej

Good heavens -- what a write and production. Your use of RealTracks and RealDrums is simply outstanding -- always.

The intro is great and then comes that lyric and vocal. Well performed and clever to the max.

"There are pilots, there are plumbers, there are waiters
There are humans that are walking calculators
Some people are are gentle as lamb, some vicious as mountain lions
Some people riding a rainbow, while others are color blind"

Well that'll get the listener bound. Man, do you ever find the rhymes.

Janice said she was in the train swaying with the beat as things passed by. Bud said Fellini vignettes.

Outstanding.

Loved it.

Misha, this is a very creative song. Loved it.

There is so much to applaud here I don't know where to start, it is all excellent. I really liked your use of effects.


Unclear if the pianist is a total beginner or a professional jazz player?

That's a thinking man's song!
I like it!

The pervious comments hit the main critical points.

I'd add that I was very pleased with your growly vocal that pops up at times.

My only critique is:
I'd like to hear the vocal a little clearer.
It's a fast moving song with lots to say and if I wasn't reading along, the message might have been hard to decipher.

I continue to be amazed at how you and others use BIAB to make such rich music.
I'm barely scratching the surface on how to use it.

Misha.
I am sorry I am so late in the day to comment.
There is a lot to unpack here and after my first listen my reaction is that your music is a breath of fresh air, (as always). I love the creativity , intelligence and humour of your music which I find is very inspirational. It's like you are giving permission to experiment and bend the rules. Awesome.
regards
Gary.

I wrote most of my English tunes when I joined this group. I need a couple of more years to polish my pronunciation (maybe 5 smile )

Top shelf lyrics, Misha, delivered in that subversive way your voice has... listen closely, and then again because you cannot get everything in one listen!
Very good use of the funky guitars and you always create cool rhythm backtracks.
You are creating wonderfully original music... newer tracks on your site sound good too.

Misha,

I am going to be an outlier here.

I LOVE these lyrics. I find them to be brilliant.

But for me, they are getting lost.

As one lost and lonely listener only, smile I would love to hear a version where the lyrics were slowed down 50% and enunciated clearly, and pumped up to be louder than the music.

That is only my opinion and I am sure many if not most or all would disagree.

But that is what I hear.

But, it is because I LOVE the lyrics.

Hi Misha,

Very cool and complex song. I had to listen several times. I think the lyrics are super good. Very artistic use of the English language.

Good stuff man and glad to see you are back feeling better.
