Gotta be where your heart is, bro!

Nice song. Really catchy chorus.

Nice bass work. I don't really like the effect on the lead guitar. Assuming that is what I'm hearing in the left with the wah-wahing. A more straight up guitar may sound better.

Also, in the first verse, there is a very brief note from the guitar. I think it's a mistake. It plays when you sing "make sense out..."

I like your singing. Nice tone and phrasing.

And one more time, if you are not in Atlanta yet, what are you waiting for?!? Cheers.

Yeah, the one thing that's kept me from posting this as-is is that single note he
hits before he actually ever comes in...he hasn't given me back the original file
yet, so I can't fix it. Also thinking about putting a vocal harmony on the chorus.
Glad you liked it, though...thanks.

I always like songs that have that acoustic sound to them ... so there's your first plus .... I kept hearing hints of a "Crowded House - Better be Home Soon" influence .... don't know if it was the melody of the song or the vocal style .... or what .... but it's a good tune .. I liked it .... sorry I don't know how to comment on the technical issues because I am not a musician in that sense .... but I don't hear the technical issues (if there are any) anyway for that very reason !

incredible bassline too.

And I do have a suggestion.

Send this to Schletty with the words: "backing vocals?"

There's an excellent Eaglesish quality to it that is just screaming for
more voices.

And I'm willing to bet Schletts won't be able to resist it. Wish I had a
little more time cuz the harmonies are floating around in my head
already too. Ah hell, send me an email if you think you'd like to hear
some harmonies in it and I'll see if Schletts & Dadai have a minute.

cheers

that keyboard after the first line surprised me like that. nice emotion in the song, i like the sounds you've added to the simple folky rhythm. nice track. it reminds me of something but i can't quite place what.

In case you were wondering, Atlanta isn't so great. I was there last year
for the FIRST Robotics Championship Event.

Great song. Singing is fantastic. I like the simple arrangement. The
production quality is something I'm striving to achieve; I might have to
drop you a line to get some tips.

Lost love in an unknown city. I have never made plans to go there before
though I have passed through the airport a couple of times.. really like the
hook. Your voice is great as usual... when do you plan to post another
version with the cleaned up bass? I think it sounds great just the way it
is. The guitar parts are nice... and I'm really digging on the composition
as a whole... sorry I didn't drop a word in sooner. Thanks for sharing.
