Hold Me (with Mike S)

[StephenM]

I wrote this song a year and a half ago and recorded it.... while I really loved the song a lot I felt it needed more than it had.  A couple months ago I asked Mike if he would re do the music completely from scratch.  I had intended to do something else with the vocals that didn't work out...
Mike put a ton of work into this...he did a superb job with the drums, bass, and guitar,,,, and just the overall vibe.

I sat on it for a long time kind of afraid to face the vocals really.... but then I swallowed all that was holding me back and tried my best with the help of a little electronic make up ....
then i added a lead guitar in the back drop.
thank you Mike for rescuing this song.

I like the drums in the beginning, a lot.
And The reverb on the vocals are a bit much, but works very well in the whole mix.
And I love the guitar solos in the far background.
Well done!!!

This SHOULD be in the psych-fest - it's tripping off its tits. Plus, as a new recording, it qualifies. I love your vocal on this - it's magnificent. What a collaboration: I'm blown away by how good this is. The panned guitars and bass are immense, and I like that psych-sounding finger cymbal thing going on - really adds to the retro vibe. AMAZING STUFF!!!!!

Oh yeah, great track and excellent collab, guys. Everything trippy and beautifully weird. Love that pulsing drum (bodhrán?) and those mad guitars just make this very special.

Wow...what a trip and a half.....great vocal Steve...and the music is windswept and howling against the rocks and cliffs of my mind spaced delirium........it soars for sure, it howls, it cries in the rain soaked night of the soul.....beautiful lads...beautiful
