wooden aeroplanes

[kenny mac]

I wrote this song as a tribute to my late father,as  a child one of my fondest memories I have of him is the day he came home from a long day in the factory,went straght into his little work area in the house and built two wooden aeroplanes for my brother and myself.
When I listen back to it now its like someone else is playing it because I worked the keyboards into this orchestra by sound on sound and playing the notes individually to give it a more real violin feel etc in parts.

For my dad.

Great vocals and composition. I hear a lot of 80s influences in this song. Simple Minds spring to mind. Your father would have been proud - this is a very nice tribute.

Very nice indeed!

Well done Kenny.

[Burtog]

Like it a lot, thought similar to stoman with the 80's vibe/simple minds but thats a good thing.

Loved the harmonica on the end section.

That synth is crazy, love it! Wicked songwriting, and a cool performance all around!

Sweeeeet!!!

[Ferryman_1957]

Excellent, great inspiration for a song and really liked the composition. Definitely a real 80s vibe but as that is my fave musical era, I loved it. Hints of Simple Minds, Associates in there for me. I really liked the harmonica (well it could be a keyboard I guess), it creates a nice melody line.

Cheers,

Nigel

Thanks f. :)or the comments,it is a harmonica,I did do a stripped down version that I may post that was mostly harmonica

[Hook]

Excellent tune, I did feel like I was in the montage scene of Pretty in Pink, but I always kinda related to Duckie.
Very nice listen!
Rock on!
