Can't go wrong ... ... with Mike and John. This sounds really good - great mix - top playing and singing, and a good song. Sorry, nothing to suggest for improvement comes to mind. A really good post Dave. Neil |

Very nice song The acoustic sounds great, and the singing is top-notch. Lyrics are nicely done, well-crafted and pithy. The drums are terrific, as is to be expected! Some lovely touches on the lead, and what a beautiful sound on the solo. A nice mix and a terrific song. Nicely done to everyone involved. Peace. |

Glad you could rescue this This is one of my least favorite genres, yet I was able to listen to the entire song and even enjoyed it. Attempting constructive criticism about the mix: I listened to this with headphones and, though the overall volume was never too loud, during some of the busier sections I turned down the volume a little just so I can hear things more clearly. It might just my (old) ears, but I suspect some mid-tone overload in a few areas. |

I find the barrage of instruments a little overwhelming all at once. I'm more of a "tone it down sometimes" person. Too much compression? Favorite part is the vocal harmonies. Fun to sing to. |

Arrghh ... and I don't mean "Arrghh" in the fun, pirate, "look at my cool eyepatch" way. I mean it in the "I'm frustrated" way. First things first: thanks so much to Dave for letting me sit in on this one. I remember when he first approached me, the song had me air-drumming away. A simple groove for sure, but those are the ones I like best. Of course, I also must commend your seemingly endless patience - a level I don't think I would be capable of extending to another. Our initial convo was last October - I told you then that I wanted in but simply didn't have the time. It was last March (about a month before my 2nd son's arrival) that I finally asked if you still needed drums. You are a very understanding fellow ... quite a gift. Kudos also to Alimar and John for some great contributions that really lift the song. Now, for my "Arrghh": my drums are just not lining up well in a bunch of places throughout, and it pains me that their addition is actually bringing a great song down. It is most painful in the chorus-out section ... the ride figure appears so far behind the beat in some spots (4:00-4:11) that it might as well be in front of the following beat. Yuck! Things sounded good in my DAW as I was proofing the tracks prior to shipping them off to you, so I do find myself wondering if I mistakenly sent you the drums with the wrong Tempo Alternative activated (because you'll recall that I did obsess about matching your tempo). I'll have to take a relisten and try to noodle what happened. So, I'm pretty much bummin'. It's a good thing that the rest of the song kicks butt! |

After all that history I must say that this mix sounds great. I had listened the song once through before I read your comments. In general this sounds very good. Nice and open mix, everything well played and sung. And congratulations on the rescue operation! |

OH YEAH GREAT Save (I recall the original). BIG Soundstage. Crystal Clear. Kit seems a tad forward, but well scrubbed. Compliments and Regards, Cooper |

Hey I didn't know you had reposted this with drums. Great percussion track I might add, Mike. All in all it is truly a fabulous tune and I know exactly how Mike felt when he was playing air drums... I felt the same way and was air guitaring the first time I heard it. I feel fortunate to be picked out of the MJ litter to be part of this. Thanks Dave. This would be great to do live someday. |

Well worth it Hey, glad I got a chance to hear this one, it was well worth the save. Thanks for the comment on my Harley purchase, got me to listen to your fine tune. Lyrics sounded like they were directly from the heart, after a some rough spot in life you may have encountered. We all get them, and have to find a way to deal with or move on. The mix sounded decent to me, especially after what you say you had to do. Nice save. You a goalie???? |

Great sound Vocals are excellent and what a hook. Guitar very Richard Thompson (my hat off to Mr L) and very good The production is also top notch. The drums gel perfectly and it has a very relaxed almost live feel. Cheers Dick |
