The guitar sounds great Ivan! The pella is nice and it all fits together well. Always interesting to read your “How I Did It”

Thanks, Deb. I’ll put a bit more effort in describing the next “How I Did It”, now that I know at least one person reads it :)

You can never go wrong with a timeless pop arrangement like this, can you?. I like this a lot.

If it didn’t work, I’ll just tag it as “classic” :) Thanks for listening!

I merely took the cue from myvanillaworld. Credit goes to her for the arrangement, really. Thanks for the thumbs up!

Like the tune, Ivan. myvanillaworld’s voice is a groove! Very commercial sounding and tight. Nice guitar work.

There is light high pitched crackle/static sound in the background especially at the end. Is that intentional? For me, a distraction in an otherwise great pop song.

Certainly unintentional. In fact, I tried to mask/ EQ that static sound but it was inherent in the pell. Thanks for listening!

Well done, Ivan! I especially dig the intro… very cool vocal sounds… And the ending. You really created a cool song with this super-fine pella.

Heh, the vocal part at the intro was a very late addition. I decided on that when I thought the guitar intro sounded a bit weak. Oh, you’re absolutely right about the pell being super. I’m listening to the lyrics again and myvanillaworld really did a great job writing her song.

Not to be redundant, but this is a terrific pop song! Great job Ivan!

Redundant comment? Never! :) Thanks, Susan.
