Again i'd love some feedback
I like the feel and the mix
do the lyrics work?
recorded t'night in an hour after trying all day to get the verse lyrics rammed into another tune
This is a bonus track as it didn't make the album

Dang, everyone except Rob (and Laura) (and me) liked the previous version! (Cupid's Own Knife)
Only i did this with the lyrics so maybe one can be a bonus track ...
aargghh ... why didn't i write a *different* song?
Anyone read Ink Exchange by Melissa Marr - my daughter lent it to me - teenage Faery novel about addiction - pretty creepy at times.
This is the one act musical version.
I wanted a 'deranged in our neighbourhood' kind of feel to it.

I just left this on repeat for the last hour
There's a wonderful melancholy to it that sits nicely with the optimistic trotting horse of the music
I love this!

i just went and re-read what you wrote at RPM, Rob/Laura and I must apologise - you actually said you like it - i didn't though, so i re-recorded, but then it felt like me against the world lol
ANd now guess what - i listened to the first one again and it sounds OK to me too. Aaaarrggghhh again. :-)
Weird how my mind plays tricks on me

This is a good place for me to be....it does me good to remember this.
God around me
God within me
there's nothing i need to fear
always remember you're here

better than i expected from your write up lol
this is pretty smooth and i think i might have to fave it
i'll hold off for a few minutes though to make sure i'm not just ab-reacting
This is the finished version of Iris Florentine. The acoustic version is still up, though...

Comments on Gumbo's stuff
Very nice, this one.
i love this one - classic gumbo - you have a great sense for lyrics and melody
its 8am here in new hampshire, and i'm ready to party...
Sounds a real mix of Irish and country, foot tapping delightfulness! Do do do dododododo, Yay!
Ah, the mandolin? And I like the way the other voices join in.
Jess and I really like your album!
Awesome, singing is a little bit off mark, but i love it all the same.
These songs are all excellent this year. Great stuff.
Just listened to the entire album. Great work once again this year.
Love the lyrics and chorus, Gumbo, your delivery is superb.
No, I'm staying here and listening to this catchy little tune. Foot tapping splendour.
Oh, so fine indeed!
Hey Gumbo, pleased to hear yer still on top form. Lovely little tune this.
Great fun man! At least she didn't stick your toothbrush in the turpentine!
ARe any of us in our right mind?! Great vocals and tune!
I prefer this 'un (and I love t'other version too). Awright.
Well, I feel gooood.
I've enjoyed both versions of this song, but I think I prefer this one. Nice.
Whooo, party! Great fun, great track.
My foot is tapping big time. Fun lyrics, love the chorus.

Very Nice Mr Choirvey! Love the shifts within it.
My partner just asked if this was Antony and the Johnsons, which I take as a fine compliment so I'm passing it on. Beautiful track.
Groovy track. Builds nicely And five stars for the written introduction! That's so true!
Heavenly Heartbreak, Batman! What a melter! Poo-Pa-Doo, baby.
