indeed, the singing sounds like something from split enz or crowded house.

sounds like a top-flight composition/recording/mix.

Pure. Honest. Lovely. Fantastic.

I havent seen Watto around hear at KVR lately.
Sometimes he posts something on his facebook account.
One of the most talented KVR oldtimers.

Thanks, everyone - I'm particularly chuffed by the Finn references, as Neil Finn is probably my favourite singer ever We're not worthy....

ouroboros, fantastic lyrics, mate! bluedad, beautiful composition. All I did was play and sing it Smile

I love the simplicity that runs throughout this excellent and appealing song.

I could connect immediately.

I love the Hope that the melody conveys - despite the contrasting sadness of Ouroboros' lyric.

Neat bit of piano playing too. It sounds miles better for being "simple" piano played well, then "clever" piano played less well.

Well done, bluedad, for pulling it all together - for working with what you had - and making such a good fist of it.

And Watto - you have a gift.

I'll hold back on the maudlin and pathos, plenty enough expressed already. HiHi
I did want to compliment Gary on a well written tune though.
Although, I don't see the problem you encountered constructing a supportive arrangement for it. I feel it's asking for it. It would fit right into a thumping, building rock ballad in my opinion. But that was the past, and that's that. Cool

Oy! I'm still lurking here on a daily basis, just not doing much of this stuff at the moment Wink

Nice to hear this again, thanks mate Smile



So this is your vocal? wonderful whoevers it is! I read the orginal post and I am too stupid to figure it out. Brilliant lyrics.

Lovely piano playing, wish I could play better Sad

This is what I sent bluedad, so it's all me. Dodgy bass playing and all!

My wife heard this future the first time thanks to this thread, and loves it - great song, bluedad and ouroboros! Well Done

thanks Barry.
You're right, there's a lot could be done with it, you called me on it.
I think I was a bit intimidated and didn't think I had the chops to pull it off.
Plus I'm a lazy git. HiHi
