This was the first time I'd heard anyone sing my lyrics and the song is as you say in a class of its own. Thanks as always for taking the time to listen and comment its greatly appreciated my friend.

There's surely much in the world to make us feel glum occasionally, Brian. We need to focus on the positive in our daily lives, eat what we want, when we want and as much as we want. Many don't have that luxury; it's a small thing for us but invaluable. Stay safe, mate.

@anthonymccabe7800Ай бұрын
So right, Brian. I can relate to that. Sitting here, a more or less burnt out wreck, in the service of firms who don't give a damn. Good friends are rare, i have to ask myself; "Have i been a good friend to somebody"? Truth is; not always, depends on circumstances mainly. Not good enough. Well done, Brian. Stay safe, you and your good lady. Love from us.

You've got it. I've been freed of the fame and money thing with my music also. It's been a joy, an adventure, and satisfying, to say nothing of the learning experience since. BTW..I like your song... it's real and unique. The mind human responds to real and unique and distinct. It remembers. It abhors the artificial.

Really good, dynamic and interesting melodies. Do you have any plans to add percussion?
@brianalexander48574 ай бұрын
Ahh you've hit the nail on the head asking that. My friend who was a proffessional percussionist used to play on some of my tracks and his playing lifted them to another level. If you listen closely, I do bash away at a drum and cymbal now and then. Thanks for listening and commenting.

I initially liked this "country" like song...But it's too long and the video adds very little to the experience. It's a good idea that needs more work in my opinion and the song ending needs to be finalized....These are most of the words you usually use on your comments with other musicians...I let you appreciate them...

My Dear Brian: Hi! I just listened and If You are willing to hear me out? Great! This song is not in my Taste. But, My Dear Son: This is only me! God created so many different kinds of people, so many different kinds of tastes. I can appreciate what you have created. Anyone who has the same taste for music will love what You have made. You done did well. A Masterpiece! Never, ever ask what others think of your work! Keep true to yourself. In all that you do... Do for the Glory of God's name and no one will ever be able to put You to shame. The second reason for life.... Write the kind of songs that will help all of God's people forget their pains, even for just a few moments and you will be helping. You are on the right path, My Son. Keep up the good works!!

Hello Brian. You're always the one to send me great music pieces and keep contacting me. It's my turn to ask how things are going for you. Hope you have enjoyed the summer and not been cooped up in your studio the whole time. You were talking about cruises and stuff, sounds good, lots of good grub etc. and sunny climes before the winter gets us in its grip. Things are about the same here, Ulla has her oxygen machine and i have regular appointments with the quack to see how things are going, very exciting.....not. As long as things are reasonably stable i don't complain,....much. Haha. No point in that, keep chugging along, mate. Ulla sends her best. See ya.
