I like the way you’ve layered the vocal, and thrown a few subtle effects in here and there on the high notes. And kudos for diving in on a song that might not naturally seem like a backing track to sing to.

And finally, I’m just glad whatever it was you gave up did not involve remixing!

What a really nice review, AB. I had a lot of fun doing this. I don’t plan to give up remixing but I hope I get a lot better at it. xxxx

I’m guessing you’re not talking about macramé. Your words and your choice of music are a likable blend, like a tough decision on a sunny day. Best foot forward.

I was trying to think of something duller than macrame. Stamp collecting? Train spotting? I very much appreciate your review, Speck. I know LIG is a bit obvious for your taste! xxxx

Ahaa!

As Anchor says, you go, girl!
Your vocal presentation of the lyric is very self-confident. I guess this represents how your feel about your decision.
Very good choice of b/t, the overall impression is girl-powerish and loads of attitude. Lovely! xxxx

Thank you, dear Per. I like ‘girl-power’. It’s more like ‘small-woman-power’ in reality! When are we going to get mixing again? xxx

Love the layering and I’m also glad it’s not remixing that you’ve given up! There are probably one or two things I should give up and I’m sure this song will help.

Ah, just a few things I do for little reward that rob me of time for things I enjoy more that give me personal satisfaction. x

Thanks, dear Susan. It’s a bit of a ‘Sue&Mo’ mood I’m in! I love reading your reviews - for me and everyone else. You always get what’s going on. xxxx

Strange at first. Gradually I have been imprisoned by the music and finally the strangeness has become a total safety. I love this.

Ahhh - thank you. I’m glad you approve. Actually it is flamenco dancing I have given up. I love it but I can’t do it. Too English! xxxx

Don´t despair and continue to try. 16 years is still a short time. There are things (musical) I´m getting after 30 years. and I can assure you that the satisfaction is immense.

you’ve really branched out on this. there’s always the recognition that your lyrics actually express your feelings, that comes through, and your music is always identifiable as a Ciggi song, you have your own sound & believable persona. last note, your vocal is synched perfectly w/ KatazTrophee. excellent.

I wish! Next thing you know I’ll be giving up tucking my vest into my pants. No, it’s never going to happen. Thanks, as always, oD. xxxxx

That’s such a very nice thing to say, D. Are you in the UK or the US? xxxx

Don’t wondering, its Central Europe, Germany. UK is impossible, cause it’s always raining there…
And it’s still sunny here and your remix still sounds good here, seems something timeless in there…

It’s a fabulous track - I was sold on it on first hearing. Thanks for not minding me singing over it! xxxx
