Description

I wrote this song a while ago, perhaps a year? any way, the original version was full of symphonies, big, heavy drums, and alot of grandure. i took it into logic, stripped it out, added a guitar line over the solo section, and realized this was a really amazing song. i am pleased it came out as good as it did, and i hope you all enjoy it as well.
if anyone wants an mp3 version of this song, please send me a note with an email addy.

Very good!
Sometimes less is more. Although in this case I don't know whether more sounds better or not, but I do know that here less sounds really good.
The guitar sounds very full and warm and the vocals are very nicely done, especially in the first half. I wasn't sure about the vocals breaking out in the end - I thought it was a bit too much for the sparse acoustic guitar playing. It would probably sound better in the bigger, rockier version.

But nonetheless - a very good track.

thanks for the listen
i appreciate your opinion on my vocals. the thing about acoustic music is there is a set idea people have about how it should sound. i am not about that set style. my style is emotional based, and used as an instrument much like a guitar or drum set. as a singer, i solo, do fills, and hit loud crash notes.
the reason for the higher notes was the part in the song which reaches a crescendo in the song. the vocals are building to this point, and frankly, if you got it, use it. great guitar players dont hold back just because a certain type of song is supposed to sound subdued. i am not trying to be a dick here, and i hope it does not come across like it, but i wanted it this way, and i wanted ot to be loud, powerful and have a wow factor.
i hope it wowed you.
again, thanks for tkaing the time to have a listen. it means a great deal to me.

	Wow Factor Damnit Allen, would you just go out and get famous already? This is an excellent, excellent vocal and the whole thing is just professional in the extreme.

	Wow factor? Yes! Damn.. damn... damn! Brilliantly done- especially the ending with the high vocal. That is a classic example of what I'd like to (but will NEVER be able to) do with my voice. You are a man of many gifts, Allen. Thank you for this one. Adam Check out my latest song called Ballad of The Little Tiki

	thanks, pete this one was one of the first recordings i mad with my new ibanez acoustic electric, and for garageband, i feel i got a fantastic tone. i remixed this one in logic, and using the huge capabilities therin, got an even bigger sound than i could have hoped for. i hope you will take an ear to some of my other material.
