Thanks for the song. Really like the vocals.
I know just what you mean..

But can't wait for your new mic so we can hear you better!
Excellent harmonies!

The guitar is so warm and upfront, it would be nice if your
vocals were in the same space. I know how difficult it is
with a less than stellar mic, but there are ways to
compensate. For example, triple your vocal track, putting
one toward the left, one toward the right and the third in
the middle. This makes vocals richer sounding. I've also
found the EQ setting "vocal presence" can help warm up
vocals.

Loved the harmonies and the performance!

the sting of loneliness first hand. It really cuts to the core.
Still does. This is a beautiful song. Very well crafted. I
think the vocals are a tad bit buried early in the song. But
then come out front and center later. I love the guitar. The
message of this song speaks to me on a very personal
level. I definately mean that as a compliment. You are
talented and beautiful, IMHO. Love will find you when you
least expect it. In the meantime, have fun being single and
enjoy your freedom. Good luck.

Great stuff. I love the concept: been there and wrote
plenty of songs about it. I'm a sucker for acoustic and
harmonies and your voice is fantastic. I love how you sing
the second verse. Can't wait to hear you through the new
mic. I'm not too sure about the drums. You probably
could have done without them. They might work better if
some bass and piano or strings came in at the same time.
To be honest, I think the guitar could have carried the
whole song. Listening to it again...that "ooh" after "dry up
all the rain" is magic! Love it.

Thanks so much for the comments! I've been hearing that this subject has been written about to death. But I recently just went through something that's impacted my life where all I can write about is this topic. It's driving me nuts. I don't really like to write love songs or sad songs but it's all I seem to come up with lately. Thank-You for listening. These comments rock!

A lot of the appeal of your music (at least to me) is that is comes from raw
human emotion and personal experience. All my life the music that I've
enjoyed most has conveyed that same emotion. Whether the subject is love,
pain or even baseball is less relevant to me.

I agree with Nolan. Very good stuff, and there's nothing wrong with writing
about love (or the lack of it). We've all been there (well, except for me...ha).
The vocals are great. Much stronger in the second verse and beyond. Cheap
mic, yea, but listen to Bonka's early stuff--its all done on the pinhole mic and
its great.

The song is nice and the guitar could have carried it through, but I'm a guitar
player so I'm biased. But if you're gonna go with drums, then some keys and
some bass is a must! Well, that's all up to you. Don't let us push you around.

Keep having fun with GB and pouring out your soul. We will share your pain.
Oh, and I lived in the 'Peg for a few years as a child. I dunno what that has to
do with anything, but, there ya go...Ciao. Great work!
