Thanks for all the compliments and that sentence about 'apps', Brain. He made me do a lot of homework. And here is the result. A link to the updated song on YouTube:

Hoi Rob en Anne Marie, leuk om weer wat van jullie te horen. Druk, druk, druk?? In English: Yeah, that software with the audience was fun. You know they even recorded the audience in Amsterdam. I think the 'maybe' comes from there...

Hi Brain, you caused me a lot of work! I searched again everywhere about the apps. And (among others) you were right it was wrong. So the title of the song was right after all! I changed parts of the song and also replaced some video images I thought weren't that functional. I hoped to replace the video too, but it was not possible. So there is another version there now. And all that because of 4 words! But thanks.

Nothing wrong would be a better title, because there is nothing wrong with the lyrics or the person in the story Falling in love and longing nicely expressed. The chord progression is really beautiful and the melody sounds very natural. Sort of gospel-like mood which is highlighted by the shouts and the choir (I think I have to use that NI instrument). The fiddle solo fits very well. And when all those play together, the song sounds very powerful and alive, Beatles and Coldplay came to my mind. And your vocal delivery is smooth and the harmonies sound great. Overall, this is spiritually very uplifting song, and together with the video made my day.
Janne
Hi Janne, you always choose so nice words to express what you think of the song. Thanks for that! Not Beatles or so, but Popfinger came up in my head... (is this also nice?). Indeed, I think you need a copy of that software too. With your AI vocals that could be something! I think the new/updated video will make your day a bit more. Take a look and tell me if I was right ;-)

Hello David, what nice you listened to it. Before I recorded my vocals, I had a cold and it wasn't over yet. Maybe I need a permanent flu on the vocal cords? Hope not... Thanks for your compliments.
I love that slow bluesy walking down pattern! It always gets me interested! Your drum sounds here are great as are the use of special effects! This has unexpected elements such as the fiddle solo! It all sounds great to me! The best part is your vocals....raw emotion is coming through especially in that bridge section! Very good work Hans! TB
Oh John, you’ve never sounded better. 😉 Really though, Hans, it's the timbre of your voice and your phrasing that are so wonderfully reminiscent of Lennon.
You put together some great session guys and the fiddle adds to the heartbreak vibe.
The lyric along the build in the arrangement are excellent and the video is cool with the live audience scenes interspersed.
I listened and watched the latest version. A lot of work has gone into the video and it's very well done. I enjoyed the song and the concept. Very nicely done.
The stand outs form this song are as follows: Your vocal. This is your strongest vocal performance I've heard so far. Excellent in all aspects. That electric piano gives the whole song a cool and unique sound. The mix is clear and crisp. Darn good song!
Hi Torrey, Jannice and Bud, Scott, Peter, Scott S and Dave
Thank you all for your very encouraging words. These words make me want to make more songs ;-)

Torrey, I'glad you mentioned that violin as unexpected instrument. I love strings, but you can't always use them. Some here said they expected a roaring guitar. But the violin was very applicable here and very beautiful. Also a little different. I like that and apparently you do too! And thanks of what you say about the vocals. like that, but I still think yours beat mine.

We’re fans! J&B
Bud, and Janice, your post sounds so nice. I almost can't believe all those compliments, so take it easy... I already told some here John is back and it is me. and I have proof from America!!! But what I think is the most nice part of your post? Now we are both fans from eachother :-))

Scott, this is so nice from you. Your compliments were on YT and here and now you start doing it all over again. Thanks a lot!

Peter, I'm glad you listened to the newest version on YT. I am still not so familiair with YT, it's the 3rd more real video I made, but I always get confused of what they are asking and so on. I didn't know you can't replace a video. I think that has to change. You can always make a mistake on something, but before you know it you have 6 videos of the same thing... But thanks you liked the song and that new video. The work was about half a day, because I learned how to expose the lyrics and to put movies in movies. I like doing that. Mostly, creating a good story is a challenge.

Scott, it's so nice how you say the things you want to say! 'Bam, bam, bam' there it is. I love that. And especially the order of those sayings Thanks a lot!

Dave, I always thought FJ was that. So thanks for this nice compliment! Yesterday I heard your new song. I think there's a competition going on between us in terms of songwriting! But thanks a lot, man. Maybe we can do a duett. Or combined with Chris? And Marty??
