Catchy &mdash 11/16/05 - 04:31:23 PM
It's a very catchy pop song. The chorus has a nice hook. Good lyrics. I like
the harmonies you use throughout, especially on the second verse. Maybe
bring the harmony up just a bit there? I can see where the simplest song
can get out of hand once you start adding things, but I like really like the
sound you've come up with. Definitely enjoyed it.

Thank you, glad you liked it. i will take your advice on the second verse and put
some more effort in the mastering bit.

Where have you been &mdash 11/16/05 - 07:23:42 PM
First- This will be the third song you've posted that will make it into
iTunes and onto the iPod. Both Dreamin' Eyes and Deanu Majja are already
there.

You have great music sensibility- this song has a very catchy hook and an
awesome melody. I like the way this is arranged but would like to hear the
acoustic version the way you had planned. Nice, nice song!

Where have you been &mdash 11/17/05 - 04:27:13 AM
Thank you.. i am really flattered that you listen to our songs on your ipod.
Imagine..someone walks around in another part of the word, listening to our
songs. :-)
Your kind words allways makes us proud.

maybe i post the acoustic version later..

Thank you and be well.

Great to hear you again &mdash 11/17/05 - 03:05:55 PM
I loved both Guoktelogiovcci and Deanu Majja, and they both 5-star rated on my iPod so it's great to hear more from you, it's been far too long! You have a great feeling for putting together a song that sticks. I don't think you went too far with this.
(BTW, I wouldn't mind if you put up more Sami traditional songs, hint, hint)

of Doubt")

Thanks

Great voice, great hook in the chorus. Nothing wrong with your use of
loops and effects -- sounds great. You know, this could actually be
remixed to fit several different genres. It could be a sweat-soaked
southern blues-rock ballad (a la Lynyrd Skynyrd), or a thundering metal
power ballad, or anything else. That's because the pure songwriting itself
is so damn good!

cool singin &mdash 12/24/05 - 10:03:29 AM
Like the style of the voice, I really can hear Van Morrison in parts of your
voice. I don't know if you where thinking of him when you were singing or
studied him in the past but that comes out in this song.

This is an impressive soft rock type song. One of the best I've heard here
at MJ.

Good going, again you really have some cool sound in that voice of yours!

Very melodic &mdash 02/17/06 - 01:00:45 PM
Really nice stuff here. I dig the acoustic in the back ground filling in the spaces. The drums are tight, Everything sounds so well mixed and there is so much Feel to this song. It has such depth and gives me goose bumps. Can guy's get those? Thanks for sharing.

Regards,
John

I like this a lot, DL and you've got my vote! - Harold

(following my brother around today, he's probably embarrased - seems like a good way to find good stuff around here, pick the ones you like, then follow their favs and comments. I've found lots of great stuff like yours just like that)
