Cool alliteration! I like it!  As others have already said, it sounds great! Small nit - the plural of reindeer is reindeer. Generally, anyway. English can be weird. Apparently some dictionaries have it both ways. And if enough people start using it that way, it becomes official. However, there are two pronunciation problems in Tears of a leprechaunThese should be t ih r z and l eh p r ih k ao nI'd trust Google before SynthV. Click the link, and then the speaker icon in the left side to hear it pronounced. At least, the way I pronounce it, so it must be right!  https://translate.google.com/?sl=en&tl=ja&text=tears%20of%20a%20leprechaun&op=translateInterestingly, Google doesn't pronounce bodhran the Irish way. Anyway, very poetic! Thanks David for your kind and valuable feedback  Glad you liked the alliteration and find the lyrics poetic Sorry that I was so careless with my lyrics, I saw that this Microsoft browser complained about "reindeers", I should have found out why... but on the other it complained also about "bodhran" so I thought that it just didn't know those words. I should cross-check all my different sources, including also dcuny I have changed the reindeer and "tears", but I didn't change leprechaun, because I didn't find another source that used ih, sorry to disappoint you Janne

Stellar work with the lyrics and the rhythm of the melody, which is extremely appealing. Bagpipes or not, I like the instrumentation and can't imagine the song any other way. Great song!

Yeow, I love the opening. Reminds of a favorite band The Pentangle. Love the vocals, the melody and the whole production. Dang, I absolutely love this song, Janne. Excellent choices of instrumentation and the perfect mix, but I keep coming back to how good that melody is. Thanks Marty for your positive feedback Glad you love the song and the melody, I'm surprised that people seem to like it that much. Hadn't heard Pentangle before, but I did now and sounds like a very nice orchestra, kind of acoustic Celtic rock, I really like the sound of that female vocalist. Thanks for pointing out them. Janne

Janne,
Funny how a song bed can hang around for years until something finally clicks lyrically . . . glad this one finally came together because it’s a good one. Great intro, and what follows is equally impressive. The Vocaloid is really, really good. The mix is just great all the way through. Outstanding work!
All my best,
Deej Thanks Deej for your kind words Well, I forced myself to write the lyrics for that melody and the band, it was basically just hard work and not much inspiration, but glad to hear everything is impressive Janne

Hi Janne,
I am very glad you brushed up this dust gathering song. Man, what a wonderful song it is!
Very nice, say magical lyrics sung by the most wonderful performance of an AI-Lady.
I had a smile on my face during the song. I enjoyed it very much.
Absolutely top notch.
But to get that lady sings the way you wanted her to, must have been a lot of work!
Hans

Really cool song Janne. The lyric was excellent but the backing band was stellar. Loved the little trills in the background. Well done.. Thanks Scott, I appreciate your very positive feedback Janne

Janne, I agree with everything that has been said thus far.
I will add that you are a great lyricist and master at those artificial voices.
Two thumbs up Thanks Mario for your thumb ups and heartwarming compliments  Janne

Thanks Ray for your nice comment I have somehow missed Steeleye Span, sounds very interesting folk rock, I'm listening to them right now, thanks for mentioning them. Janne

Magical and creative!
Your lyric reminded Janice of some of the best fairy tales she read as a young girl, both the write and the colorful images in the books.
The singers shine (excellent work) and that’s a great band you assembled.
Love the bodrans ... and the entire mix.
Enjoyed it!
J&B

Very evocative - sensitive production - nicely subdued vocals - tricky to get lyrics to fit snugly in 6/8 but you managed it well Thanks for your kind and insightful feedback It wasn't an easy task to get the lyrics flow easily so I'm very glad you appreciate the end result Janne

This is different from the normal songs we hear here, and in a very positive way. Amazing work. Good use of, well, everything. another BIAB release without Bagpipes/Uilleann pipe RTs That's good! I think I read somewhere that their original purpose was to strike fear into the enemy ... that's what they're good at  Thanks BD for your positive approval Well, you don't have to fear at least this year, because on the day PGMusic introduces bagpipe RTs, I will fill my new songs with them Janne

Hi Janne,
Excellent lyrics! Man, I wish I had a fraction of your skills in that department.
Love the track, great intro and choice of instruments. And your vocalists are doing a fine job for you also!
Good one, enjoyed. Thanks Dave for your kind comment I usually write too many words, I appreciate your skillful way of writing lyrics simpler to understand Janne

Hi, Janne & Co !
This is absolutely a most magic tune
with mysterious sounds that evoke
the hauling of wolves around me
in the deep of the night out there
in the snowy and ghostly moonlighted
forest !
It is one of your absolute best
and a masterpiece !
Cheers
Dani
