Description:
this is about a fellow song-writer/best friend of mine. We don't see much of each other anymore...but have had many fun music making experiences in the past...post college life has put distance in our lives.....whether present or not, he is still an influence on my music, I am constantly wondering what he thinks of my work...............Its fun to think about the friends in my head that I carry around with me everyday, without them knowing.......no....I am not a Schitzo!

Lyrics:
they gather up the courage to go and play....I feel the world is spinning away....

but I've got something deeper here inside of me now..its something called victory and I am going to win.

You create that look inside his eyes.....pictures of his face appear in all your skies....but all of your memories fade into dissolving water....and your pain falls from the trees but you've got that mystery....

we've got a chance to do it one more time...come into my distance I see you standing right here near me.......

Your voice .... &mdash 01/29/06 - 06:33:00 PM
Has a very commanding presence ... it flows so smoothly across the musical back drop .... a very nice warm mellow sound ..

i dont know which way to go on this one. the music is strong, but the
vocals seem to be lacking....

i totally disagree.... i think these vocals are effing amazing, but the music needs
to be mixed back a little...blended.... great composition, though

overall a fantastic piece....

tbone....hey...this piece is great... the "appear in all her skies" line is FANTASTIC.

The Mic and Mix on the Very Fine Piano and Vocal Presentation are
both Clear and Clean - Pleasing, and Captivating.

The Fine Vocal Timbre and control of Tone and Phrasing turns against
you though in a burst of Irony, however: As the Lyric being presented
is not of the same caliber as the Voice and creates a contrast. That is,
the Lyric, a personal Musing regarding a friend absent, is a bit too
loose in structure to convey what it is that You're Feeling. I'm Sure that
it is Totally clear to you, but the image structure is too personal to you
- the relationship between the images is not so clear to the listener.
[Any written text that contains seven elipses is going to require some
"filling in", as those are more notes to the author than the listener/
reader, No?

I find the overall presentation (esp Vocal) quite fine: (Voice, Piano, Mix)
and fondly reminiscient of MR. Jackson Browne. The mic-ing of the
guitar seems to lack resonance, as maybe you were avoiding cycle/
ambiance conflict with the piano, but should be re-mic-ed and panned
to a location that avoids the conflict.

In all, it is such a good piece, with some flat-out superb parts, that the
minor flaws are that much more visible (the old "damned by your own
success" thing).

Fine Track that could be Dynamite.

My two-cents.

Best,
rtc

thanks rtcooper,

thanks for spending the time you did on this. your completely right about the
lyric, I see what you mean about leaving the listener out in the dark. I've always
struggled with the storytelling of a song and lately I've been relying on very
large poetic license. I should probably go back on this one and set down some
new lyric that truly paint the feelings I am going after.

thanks for commenting..................t
