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.

Very smooth. Lovely live feel. Fine song and arrangement. And what a voice the man has! :-)

Rockin!! Almost convinced me to put away the acoustics and start doing some electric again. Loved it.

Someone's opened my ears (not sure who, but it's probably someone on here) - I started listening to this the other day and thought "yeah, it's ok" and stopped it after 30 seconds to look for something else. I love the title though, so I just gave it another go... well, someone's opened my ears since then! Like it a lot :-)

I like this. I need to check out more of your stuff.

And here's another! Nice work guys. I don't seem to understand enough about what you're doing to make sensible comments. Except this - I like it, keep doing it!

Yes. You're exploring a slightly different place than I am, but several times recently I've clicked on one of yours just to see "what's cooking" and each time you take me closer to this different place. I'm starting to feel that vaisvil tunes are essential "Andrew Russe listening"! :-)

Missed this originally. Love it. I'm a sucker for songs with the word "shine" in anyway (I've used it several times over the years, myself). I just LOVE the word and the concept of "shine" when it's applied to humans - seems to be a really powerful trigger. I would use it in every song I write if I could!!! (Would kind of waste it's power though lol) And this one doesn't waste it... a really beautiful song and performance. Faved.

Yeah... nice version. Some lovely strat sounds there.

Nice one :-)

Wonderful :-)

Why have I never heard this before? It's beautiful.

I found this very moving - even before I read the description.

This is mighty fine listening.

You guys are crazy! lol But what really impresses me is that there's some seriously crazy musicianship going on with it. Love the guitar playing.

Surprised no comments yet! I kinda like this

Oh yes... Not heard this before. But like the other comments, what a fantastic voice. And a magical song and performance.

This is a fine version - listened to it a couple of times. Lovely performance. Even with the ad lib!! So glad to know for certain that it's not just me that finds that particular ad lib making it's way onto my recording machine :-) BTW - It all seems to be on the left channel of the stereo, though - is that what you intended?

I've commented before, but this started playing after listening to something else. And I had to comment again: I LOVE this song and your vocal. (You asked for comments - the ONLY thing that distracts me is the popping on the mic on the lead vocal, I'd want you to address that. I suspect you want to work on the lead guitar - I think you can almost leave that if you want, the song and the vocal is where this is at for me). Wish I could Favourite it again! :-)

This is superb. Just superb.

This works :-) I'm still very fond of the original instrumental, so I was a bit worried what might have happened. But no, no need to have worried... this is great. Obviously the focus is on the vocal instead of the fantastic guitars, but I like the contrast in the styles of the two of you. And great lyrics. Nice work chaps!
