Yo, this is a cool song. The programmed drums rock and i intend to steal them for one of my songs. Sorry.

Excellent work. The tempo and vocal melody are well matched and rather relaxing.

Glad to see you’re still making music. I thought maybe I wasn’t subscribed to your list there for a few…months…

Slow and steady wins the race

Glad you like the song. Hopefully more on the way soon.

I like the track, it IS different from your other songs. I managed to mentally block out the drum machine and enjoy the vocals. :)

At the 3 minute mark there’s a 30 second Beta Band-esque chorus type thing which is all good, it cuts the structure up a bit then the mellow guitar solo thing finishes it up nicely.

If you ever make it big and end up doing, like, an MTV unplugged session, can I be the guy that does the “woop”s on that song?

You no like-a my drums?

I actually came up with the drums first and wrote the whole song around them so it would be like totally weird if you didn’t like them but you like the song.

I like the drums, but drum-machines steal the food off the tables of the hard working drummers around the world.

You killed my children!

I love it man, reminds me of something the Beatles would have done. Although i have to say it takes me about half way through the song every time i listen to it before i really get into it. Definately a cool tune though. Vocals are the best, drums have a bit too much echo i think, not sure if that’s the right way to put it, but they just sound a little odd until about half way then it’s all good and they seem to fit in fine.

Very good work Brad, except for that damn “woop.” I CAN’T STAND THAT THING, MAN. But other than that, it’s great.

Chalk up another mark against the “hate the woop” side… Quite distracting – especially when it’s so loud. It’s an excellent tune overall, though.

On the mix I’m listening to here “the woop” isn’t terribly loud. Maybe I’ll try listening to it on some other systems and see what it sounds like.

It also seems to sound a bit louder (to my ear) on the 128 encoded version (the one on the site). Apparently MP3 encoders really like to enhance the woop.
