Those chords would take some working out...great song and passion in your voice too. Sweet

...and great words and story telling!

Great track Andrew...downloading now! Thanks for your continued support and kind words. Very nicely produced your stuff is.

Damn fine blues!

The tension in this is palpable from the first question. The quiver in the voice. The nakedness of the questions. "Often forget you understand." Hard to hear as just another blues song.

cool soulful serenade

wow. this song is so cool and delivered in just the right style. hats off to you, andrew!

Fine song, fine, fine song. I love your slight country feeling here, really true sounding. This really works for me.

fun lyrics, Vox, cool tune!

Does for me..... a little light, a little dark.....

A little Purple sounding! Pretty FN cool.

lol - the bass was an organ set to "hammer house of horrors", perhaps I overdid it! (The reverb on the vox is deliberately "chilly" as well) I wanted stark and lonely in the verses. But I also wanted comfort in the choruses - which is what the other instrumentation was intended to bring... but I've given up on that idea... it now sounds to me like the singer is incapable of bringing the comfort he offers, and he knows it... so I'll leave it them both to it :) And nope, I didn't steal the teddy bear... But mine were removed from me and given to my sister when I was about 8 years old... so I do know exactly what I'm talking about lol

odh is right; the bass feels a little sinister. Did you steal the teddy bear, Andrew?

Something slightly unsettling. Which is a good thing. Could be the treatment on the bass. I like...

"I dream you every Day" Some tunes dont need a lot of stuff. Focused and moving

I'd agree with G. Connor: it already is a very nice song as is. And the relative nakedness of it fits the story pretty well.

I'm reaching that conclusion too :) If I'd held it back and put the parts on that I was rehearsing that day it would have been fine... and possibly better... But I was trying them out today, and they seem surplus to requirements now! (Mrs R has got her way lol)

I like it. Why fill it up with more than you need. I think you captured it perfectly.

Wow this is awesome! Thanks for the comments on my tracks.. theres more on soundcloud if you like :) https://soundcloud.com/peterdonaghey

Lovely melody (and you carry it very well). Though I can 'hear' some more instrumentation and harmonies, this 'naked' version is not so shamed to be that way.

Lovely track. Gorgeous feel. I'd have been happier if it had been longer - I put it on and went "yeah" and wandered off to another window. There was a real feeling of "Oh!" when it stopped - had to come back and hit play again! lol

Back for another listen. Can't believe I didn't fave it last time!

"Lovely tinkly bits" - Can't really top that for a comment, B lol And it's so true! Loved it all. I thought it was just OK when it started, not quite my kind of thing... But it grabbed my attention enough to stay, and then it just dragged me in. Faved by the end. Nice track.

Yep, that works :-) Cool song on the original track. Enhances and brings out that riff. I listened to the original first and thought "it's the riff I'd go for" - and I'm guessing that's what gave you the mood for the lyrics/vocal. Nice work both!

And I forgot to mention those drums on the first listen. Yeah!!

Oh this hangs together very well... VERY well. Really interesting arrangement - all the different parts shouldn't really go together... but they fit seamlessly. Love it.

I like this one a lot. Gotta get me a banjo, or a mandolin, or both!! You realise you're gonna have to get a fiddle as well now? (Or have you got one already!). Fine track. Love those falling chords.

Not come across this tuning, not sure how it gets played, can't imagine it. Might have to give it a go. You seem to know what to do with it, though!

Good work guys. Very effective guitar track and mighty fine vocal from Hooky :-)

Nice. Like the riff, and lovely keyboards.

Rockin' :-) Sooner or later I've got to treat myself to a Sunday afternoon like this. Some well tasty guitaring going on here.

I kept meaning to listen to this ever since you first posted it. I didn't have 9 minutes at the time! Then I noticed the attention it was getting - so I reckoned it must be something special... ... found the 9 minutes and.. YES! It is...

Coming from a completely different space than I've been dwelling in for the past few hours - and very refreshing because of that. Enjoyed it a great deal.

Had to give this another listen before I lock myself away in the room with too many guitars. Thanks for the inspiration.

And another one! Fantastic. "Far too high, far too bright.." Love it... This is definitely the last one I'm listening to... I'll catch up some more later... I'm off to the broom-cupboard now.

Oh fantastic song and performance. Love the "mandolin" - is it one, or the "capo up the neck" trick? (I keep meaning to stop and actually go and do some stuff myself - but another one of yours keeps starting and I keep listening instead!) This one is utterly fabulous.

Lovin these guitar sounds.

Rockin

Always liked this one

Yes. Lovely. Not sure I've heard your voice like this before (away from lots of instruments). You've got a lot more bottom-end to it than usually shows up on bigger arrangements. Think about discovering how to bring it out on those as well - not too much, just a bit :-) Of course, it might just have been the flu!!! lol
