... Great song! I like this a lot...great production, great dynamics, and slick lyrics. Really well done. Hey, we're in Southern Ontario--if you're down this way, we're always up for a jam ;) |

Nice tune Very airy vox that fit in the verses really well. I think this song is very catchy and melodic. Kind of has a Weezer feel. I could hear a crunchy guitar part coming in when you get to the "...she's the one" chorus and then going right back into the acoustic for the verses. Liked this one a lot. Thanks |

stripped down LOve the acoustic sounding chunka chunka on the guitar and the way you sing this it flows around the rhythm. Excellent now to listen to the other version |

just as cool if not cooler than the other version. i dig it dood! the octave guitars (acoustic this time) are a little out of tune - most likely due to the intonation of your acoustic guitar. but DON'T change it... it's perfect! it's real and it adds a bit of depth (the way a chorus pedal would). very cool. another mj hit! |

superfriend I love the original. As soon as I got to work yesterday I emailed my buddy Russ (Somebuddy) and said he had to check it out. But this one even better than that one. I'm not torn between them at all. Great original, even greater this time around. Blew my mind. My wife would love to have a song like this. |

I'm a sucker .... ... for all things "acoustic" ... all things "love and dedication related" .... and of course "birthdays" ... so this one was already a winner in my mind before I even listened .... you have an amazing talent to genre hop the way you do ... (and very successfully too) a nicely rounded place to be ! |

I feel very much like GuyGrooves I can't decide which I like better but the acoustic version here is unique in its own way. Hope your wife likes the present!!! Happy birthday to her! |

:) I love this acoustic version. And voicing is great, specially your control on the ending part. You can take this song anywhere with just a guitar. And lyrics are nice and personal, no fancy wordings, just honest expression of love and emotion that can easily relate in every day life. |

Verdict is in This takes it top the next level. The earlier version is polished and all but this one has why we write songs in the first place. It's intimate and personable. It would be a cold-hearted listener that wouldn't go along for this ride. The harmonies are cool. So subtle and stratospheric. Also like the way you build it up in each verse, and that you kept the keyboard note bend thing behind the "pick up my bag..." line. Thought that might be missing as this was to be an acoustic version. Smart move keeping it around as it takes things to the next level. Sorry if I can't find anything to point out for improvement. This is damn good. |

Whoa!!! Awesome!! Going to listen to the other one now. But I personally prefer acoustic versions of songs when they have an electric twin. That's why I listened to this one first. And it is Awesome!! |

just found this i get so behind. i really like the changes you made to this. i think i may like this version better than the other (not to take away from that one). this is just a little more unusual. awesome song either way. |

I'm a Superfriend Fantastic songwriting, a very creative performance, terrific vocals, love the expressive way of singing and the crisp and highly professional production. An instant favotite - I'm a fan :-) |

Of the two I prefer this version - it still has the cool rhythmic feel, but is just more accessible. This is a really classy song Ridd - great singing, playing and production. Neil |

nice Very sweet tune. Hey, I hear a lot of weezer on this one (pinkerton era stuff) Again, the acoustic sounds amazing and the percussion fits like a glove. Have you listened to "superfriend" by rivers cuomo? He released it in a home recordings album. Just wondering if the title had anything to do with that song. |

Acoustic Version I JUST listened to the first version, now this - I can't decide either. Ridd, this is a very good problem to have - which of these two great versions of the same great song, do I love the most?? On my second listen, I think I have a slight preference for this one - but that might just be because it's the one I listened to last! This is SO ipod music - wish I'd had this (these) on the bike trip I just returned from. |

I like your voice it suits everything in the track (music, lyrics). Hmm, I normally stick to house but I might have to look into more of your stuff. Like this very much. |

Very cool And I need a Superfriend to save me from Godzilla! |





























is a great version too. I like the muted guitar sound throughout, it gives the your voice room to project and stand out.
Happy Birthday to your wife - my daughters B-day is on Sunday.
