That's a really hot, driving riff you have going there. Good solid country rock. You need some vocals on this! Great work.

Ted

I like the guitar tone.  Telecaster?

The keyboard kind over overpowers everything.  Maybe bring it down in the next mix--the one with the vocals!

Well played country song SwanSong! I agree with Greeny; this would be even better with vocals, perhaps with female vocals... Is Wiley still here?? :)

thanks all for the comments.. hey kari if u want to try vocals. go ahead and write
some lyrics lo. or if anyone know s someone who wants to collaborate..
will tone down keyboard on the vocal mix. but wanted a hard driving rythem
at the begging. of the song. to grab listeners attention. i guess it worked lo
in final mix. there will b improvemetns. re layering of tracks. and mixing.
of keyboards..again thanks for your comments. just had to record this
in my head laying in the hospital and thanks for the well wishes......cheers.!

Thanks SwanSong, but I have written vocals only in Finnish. I don't mind ruin someone other's tunes :)

( I'm struggling with my first English lyrics - but on someday I'll make and sing it...or if someone has 'leftover' lyrics, you can send them to me... sorry, off topic)

That guitar is real nice, really gives the country twang to this. I like the drums here, did you program them or use loops off the keyboard? They really help give it a good driving feel. Looking forward to how this develops.

Cheers,

Nigel
