Hi Everybody,
Thanks all for your kind comments I really appreciate all the time taken
Hey Micky, PT & Skub,
Thanks for your comments reference the lyrics. Glad you liked them - the Joules, Jewels and Duels line just sort of occurred to me during one of the many rewrites! (So Paul it was more a stroke of luck
Hi John,Really appreciate your comments …especially being described as vocally “Lennonesque” Hey man, I’m walking on air after that one!
Hey Scott,Thanks dude, yeah I’ve decided to have a bit of a verbal clear out less is more (hopefully) glad you approve It just takes longer to write something shorter…Hmm…
As for post-production…not really progressed there, the extra equipment is gathering dust… I think I’m just recording cleaner and maybe positioning my mic better.
Thanks again for taking the time
Hi Vicki Yes, Hi you’re right I wouldn’t have used “fall” twice intentionally, good catch!… as for “does fall” vs “will fall” I think whilst the does fall is grammatically ‘interesting’ (Wrong!) I chose to use it for whimsical reasons…but thanks for highlighting it. With that in mind… do you charge for proof reading?
Very glad you liked the song overall though and you’ll be relieved to know is was as lot of work!
Thanks for your valued input though and comprehensive response
Hey Tina, Glad you got the humour and equally glad you like the title I had two choices really Mamma’s Spaceship or the Well of Stupid but as you rightly point out I was playing fast and loose with potentially “preaching” and thought Mamma’s Spaceship was less pretentious
Many thanks, as ever, for taking the time Tina
Hi BillI have to say this has been a little bit of a departure for me but I think I may stay for a while in "folksville" it seems a nice place. Thanks for the kind comments I appreciate it
Hi JamieGlad you liked the lyrics. Yes the arpeggio’d chord change at the end of the chorus is a little awkward I did it to underline the resigned/demoralised emotion that ‘ignoring the news’ may engender but it’s entirely possible I just got it wrong!
Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment much appreciated
Hey StengGlad you liked the recording ‘quality’ all my stuff is essentially live recorded as I have no ability in production. With that in mind, if I could overdub successfully I could take on your ‘Guitar twiddle’ idea I think it has merit. Thanks for the comments
