Excellent work, gentlemen.

Nice acoustic song, love the vocals!

nice version, sounds good

The drums do work here.

:-)

Cool. In many ways I like this one better. Not so much ME, and Jim does some lead. Nothing against Norm, but the drums work better here and seem to propel the song more.

Great job on the mix Keith!!! I love how this version came out too! It's stange because when I tried to mix in Kavin's guitar with everything it did not sit as well in the mix! I might need to work up a hip hop version too !! hahaha.

For Jim's mix (and some drums by Norm (how many hands does that guy have?!?!) head on over here: http://alonetone.com/mtcband/tracks/over-the-embers

Outstanding work gents!

Oooo...you had me 5 seconds in! Fabulous! w;-)

I knew several teachers. Love this song. Right on, brother. ER

Run around like a maniac? I do that at work every day. Nice playing. I'll bet the kids all fall down at the end. :-) ER

Really enjoyed this one this morning Keith!

Tremendous rhythm you punch out Keith. Yeah, I can see why the children rush about at 4 mins.

:) A lovely thing to share. My 5 year old is scatting along to this! Well, scoobideedoobideewoop!

I can picture that!

Really full sound. Very nice sentiment.

Now that's what I call a very special dad! w;-)

Keith, This vox sounds really different. There is a Crisp sincerity here. What is different? PM me. I really want to know

Smooth, nice recording of the guitars.

Great track... Rings so true. I have been there my friend, and man does this song hit home so perfectly! And the outstanding upbeat nature of the song is just a perfect counterpoint to the harsh sentiments of the insane person.

Excellent arrangement!!! Love the acoustic sound. Faved when that third guitar dropped in at just the right time.

Faved for Kavin's slide guitar goodness!

How the hell did I miss this one! I gotta get my head out of my ass and swing by the osckilo part of the world more often! Well done, my friend!

REALLY clean work here! Great production quality on this track, Brian!... And clearly a great deal of time was spent on this... And the fun created truly does come through. Well done!

http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae64/mtcband/Mobile%20Uploads/th_AWARD.jpg Thank you so much M.T.C. Music award committee for recognizing such a relatively simple acoustic track from such a relatively simple person... (puts hand over mic to ask presenter, "Are you sure I really won this... Did you read the wrong name?")... I'd like to thank my new laptop for not crashing during the 2011 RPM process, and not developing an editing mind of it's own as the last one had. I'd also like to thank time, seeing as how I needed so friggin' much of it to get the fingerpicked portions of this song eventually done right. A big thank you to the inspiration for the songs, my always-ready-to-go-no-matter-how-absurdly-cold-it-is daughters. And a special thank you to my beautiful (and extremely tolerant) wife Kimberly for taking these same terrific daughters off my hands during my February vacation (sorry, Florida, for the pink invasion). Where's the after party!

I can always count on a little slice of perfection from Peter... Perfectly crafted song, my friend! I truly envy your mastery of your voice, virtuosity with your instruments, and flawless ear for arrangement.

Excellent track! So perfectly melodic and understated!

Hey superstar! So glad to see this one posted on your page!... I'll be finding some time in the coming weeks to record yet another version (with my vocals alongside yours), but I don't think I could possibly top Willem's!

(@Reefwalker) I may go back and record a different version with the two of us singing together. It is daunting to try to keep up with her incredible vocal talents, though!

Corbin, Just swinging by again to have a listen to this little piece of perfection. Hey, how many of the instruments are you playing on this? I'd love to hear the recording process for this song. It truly is one of the most perfectly crafted, arranged, and performed songs I have ever heard. Be good and keep charging toward greatness! Keith

What incredible music, Craig! I can't believe I've missed out on these perfect tunes for so long!

My oldest is a serious mountain hiker, herself. I'll be playing this beautiful song for her later... If you want to hear my version of a hiking song (a day with my middle and youngest when they were really little), come on over for a listen! http://alonetone.com/keithlandryacoustic/tracks/sleeping-beauty-mountain I've got a bunch of other songs over there written about hiking in the mountains... But none so tremendously arranged as this gem of yours.

Faved instantly!

I'm always blown away by what comes out of your mind, through your hands, in into a microphone. Such good sounds... Always such good sounds.

Oh goodness... How have I missed this all this time?!?!?! AMAZING.

My friend, you have a knowledge of your instrument that I could never hope to have. Magnificent piece of music.

Faved instantly.

Very nice haunting arrangement. Love the guitar coming in at around 1:20-ish. Really deftly handled orchestration throughout.

Oooooh... This is NICE. Faved almost instantly. I really will need to give your songs the serious time they deserve. OUTSTANDING track... I have a feeling they're all gonna be this good.
