    Thanks, man really appreciate the opportunity and thanks for your time. Just one quick suggestion. I think the song will benefit alot from being sang a little different perhaps, having the singer space his words out some more making more space for vocals harmony. It sounds like he wants to say a lot of stuff but no enough space. Hope it makes sense.

      Absolutely agree. We’ll have some work to do on the vocals for sure. Arrangement, melody, lyrics. There will be a whole week dedicated to the vocals. :)

      Thanks for chiming in!

    Eager to see what you guys dish out for tracks, But I think I am in for a mostly acoustic, probably anthem build-up style rendition myself……
    Bring it on, lets learn!

    Have to agree with the previous comment that providing guidance on a basic chord progression would aid those who intend to add to or play along with the project.

    A few more questions:

    The latest post on this instructs us to come here and sign up. ? Does posting a comment “sign us up”?

    Timeline/schedule? IE: When can we expect more on this?

  8. Howard Chang

    David, thanks so much for taking us on this journey! Perhaps this is one of those situations where the journey is to be enjoyed as much as the destination! And, that’s not a commentary on the song itself either, because I’m sure it will be a jewel. It’ll be great to witness it as it takes shape.
