Erland,
Lovely song. Great guitar sound for such a cheap set up, great vocals, great arrangement. No cheese as far as I can hear.

I also reckon a cello would sound great on it. Like you, if I had a cello (and could play it) I'd use it on everything. I make do with an e-bow and use it as much as possible. Unfortunately the rest of the band tend to overrule its use on recordings, but I get to play it live (on electric guitar) on a few acoustic guitar based songs and it works really well. I always get asked by people in the audience "What were you using to make that sound?".

Keep up the good work and tell the Spaniards to be quiet next time you're recording, although you can always use the background noise to give a song some atmosphere.

Who says you need the help of big record company? Just so that they can mould you into what they want you to be? Judging by the response you've had here you're stuff would sell. Sell over the internet and at gigs and keep the money for yourself.

Pete.
 
Turn off the lights and let the song flow ...
Excellent!

I imagine you're a James Taylor fan, aren't you?
I feel some great folk influence here ... and a little of Jethro Tull ...

I like it.

Good job.

I just meta pal who showed me Phish and he was enthusiastic about how crazy they are but yet still can doa comercial album of cheezy pop that works. I want to play guitar with abother chap or two. Thats the goal. Thanks Wes, good motivator.

Pedullist. Dude.

Hi Scot, yup the guitars were a little soft. Thanks for the harmony point, cheers.

Hi flapo1, well wowsers. Thanks for that. Good to know it was better than cheezy and sat well with you. Real simple, thankyou.

Hi Joe. Very good of you to comment like that. Really motivating thanks man. I will keep em coming.

jake-owa. Thanks for listening Jake.

Hi Doug, the guitars were a little flat I suppose but I am sure glad you liked the song. Its harder to write a happier tune than a sad one usually. Thanks again.

Peter. That was real nice of you to say. You really have turned me on now, bring on the playing live. It must be done, for fun and becasue if I dont I will regret never trying. Inspiring, cheers.

Hi Capitani, excellent of your too listen. I am a little embarrased becasue I dont know who James taylor is. thanks again though, thanks for listeing in the dark.

Hi kjam22, great stuff. Cheers for listening mate.

Pedullist :)

Erland, thanks agian lads.
 
Pure talent, mate.

You know I love your stuff - for what it's worth I think this is one of your best. Very clear sound, classic and effective arrangement, and the best harmonies I've heard you do.

It's cheesy in a good way. :)

And the "now..." bit is a moment of pure genius.

Give me a shout when you're back up in Scotland - I want your autograph.

Cheers
