After my (failed) electro experiment another acoustic based track.
It starts of pretty slow (the real refrain only comes after the second verse), but is has a nanana-singalong part towards the end to make things up  Wink

All comments and suggestions appreciated as always!

Nice laid back song, plenty of expression and some excellent vocal harmonies.

Frederick, this is a very good song.  Super lyrics and a very interesting backing track.

If I could make one suggestion it would be to change the ending.  I would delete the drums at the very end and end with the chord ringing out.  BUT that is nitpicking for sure.

It’s a keeper.

This is a very, very, very good song!
The vocals, and harmonies, are so good that they (IMHO) could do with a little *lift* in some way, maybe with some panning.
I would also like to hear some EQ tweaks to bring out the acoustic guitar a bit. I think that would help to carry the vocal along. Have you tried *Classic Compressor by Kjaerhus Audio* on *acoustic* preset? This would bring out that crispness that, to my ears, is missing.

Thanks for the kind words!

The guitar lacks crispness? - if I only wouldn't be to lazy to change the strings every now and thenthat would never happen
West coast vibrations - well in fact I do live at the west coast (albeit of Europe)  Grin

I always change strings when they break.  Wink
