This started out with me sitting at the old Technics electric piano I got last year a couple of weeks ago. I found some chords and a simple intro/outro and recorded it the day after. Added el-piano sound and organ and then some slide-guitar and bass.

I discovered this beautiful voice over at alonetone, and thanks to Tharek I got in touch with her and she agreed to put her words and voice to my music. And WOW I'm happy with the result !!!

There may be a remix on a later stage, but I just couldn't wait sharing this with you ;D

This is really a superb collab - those slide guitar touches remind me a bit of George Harrison, love all the keys, and Bethan has a wonderful voice (I'm a fan of her songs that I've heard on alonetone).

Top notch!

Oh yes, this is mighty fine, mighty mighty fine.

The title and the sounds fit together perfectly.

I love the backing, how the guitars and keys fit together and complement each other. And those simple chords, yum...  And then her voice on top of it is just the bees knees.

What Cuthbert says ^

"Top Notch" indeed :)

   All that I need
Is just a piece of paper
To say a few lines
Make up my mind
So she can read it later
When I'm gone

Fantastic indeed.  I have really enjoyed Bethan's voice very much over at Alonetone.  You need to see if she will come over to our little site and see what she thinks............... Fantastic music Geir.  Its a beauty all around.

The standard of songs on this site, particularly recently, has been even more amazing than ever...and here we have another one. I have not heard Bethan's voice before, but will now have a listen to her other songs on the strength of this, what a voice she has.

That is some fantastic music too, and you have excelled here Geir with some great layering of sounds, and the slide guitar is sublime.

It is just bloody fantastic!!
