Hi, Stanford. "I Need a Love" is a very good tune with the atmospheric sounds of Simple Minds that I really enjoy. Your thoughtful lyrics wander and search for life's meanings. That's understandable when a beloved companion and pet dies. I had that happen earlier this summer with the loss of our cat, Ulan, and it has been heartbreaking. You were a tech? In what field? I was the geeky graphic designer at the Dept. of Transportation, building computers and writing web pages. It's one of those things where I would have liked to paint, write music, draw cartoons, but life got in the way with having to make a living. Equality has been a theme of my life, too, as in your song, "Promised Land." I enjoyed listening to your songs and seeing the meaning behind them. John
Thanks John. I love Simple Minds, so I'm happy to be compared to them, I find more space in their songs than mine and their production is generally top notch.. but I'm still learning! I am going to rework Promised Land, I think it has some good parts and ideas but at the least the chorus is poor. I feel I've taken another step forward with 'I need a love', especially with the arrangement. I still am a tech: Software developer, so I'm just as happy plugging in a new synth sound as I am rocking my guitar love and as you say a keen hobbyist in this and other more fundamentally 'creative' outlets than the day job. (Including Games dev). Yes, losing my cat, younger than was rightful, was a hard hit. I can see you are also a cat lover! I am still taking time out before taking in another. Thanks for your comments, Stanford.
Stanford Thank you for the kind review and suggestion. I liked it!!! Best Ante Novaselic
Thanks for the nice review of my song "Cowboy Shuffle" (Instrumental Edit). That's taken from my song "Cowboy" that has full male vocal and harmonies, so feel free to check that out and see the story line that made the song originally!
Hi Bob I listened to the Cowboy song and it's great too. I still hear Shania Twain singing the melody and lyric I had in my ear when there was none! You played me all the way, like when my fiddles on fire it doesn't happen everyday. Yeah I don't know where that came from either just the music sounds real fun and saucy to me. All the best
Welome to Broadjam Stanford! You'll have a lot of fun on here! Thanks for the review of "Train On The Track". I'll see if I can tighten it up a bit! Catnip
good music for an old fashioned SUN Salutation!
Thank you for the review if my Song "Suspicions Confirmed" I appreciate your Honesty and Comments. Take Care.
Respect Stanford. Thank you for your review of Nobody. I appreciate your honesty & review. All the best my friend & enjoy your day.
Hello Stanford. Thanks for the review of FL kids jingle bells. We had fun recording that. Still getting a ggid amount of streams out there. My sparse spotify pennies! Mrs Kate
Thanks for the review of our song I Can't Complain. Would it be ok if I post the review on our cdbaby page for the song? It will be credited to your name. Thanks again!
Hi, no problem, yes you can post the review. All the best.
Thanks for your review on my collaboration with Ian Ritchie and his song "Dawning" Stanford.
Hi Randal, I’ve reviewed your music before. I hope you don’t mind my comments. You’ve definitely got a knack for finding great sounds for your songs.
No, I appreciate your advice Stanford!
Hey Stanford, thanks for the nice review of the instrumental "lift" of my song, "Lovers & Friends". Very thorough and pretty much spot on with your perspectives.... it is certainly a 60's tune! Thanks for the notation on the amount of bass. The whole song is due for a re-mix and re-mastering, as this version is about 20 years old. To one of your points, there IS a version of "Lovers & Friends" available to enjoy that does have lyrics. I think you will enjoy it. It has risen to #1 on several music charts in the past. The story line is between a Fleetwood Mac and a Joni Mitchell song. Check it out at my Broadjam site and tell me what you think.... Best..... Chet Nichols PS Thanks ... again!
Hi Chet, listened to your version with vocal and it's great you've time warped me back to the Sixties and early Seventies for sure and that's not a bad thing. You've been doing this longer than me but yes I still hear plenty of space for a bit more bass. There's more tools to do that sort of thing than there were back in the day! All the best
Hi Stanford..... gonna boost the bass for you on new remix. Will do it in your "honor".... Stay in touch... Chet
Hey thanks for a very thoughtful review of "I Will Be Redeemed" !!!
Woken up this morning by light of a full moon through the window and your song was playing in my head, so 5/5 for the hook, very haunting, Nice. (Optional female harmony toward the end to aid redemption)
Thanks for your review on my song "Chasing After The Wind" Stanford!
hi Jill can sing yes vocals coming soon thank you
Hey hey Stanford, thanx for the review of "It Must Be You". I think I wrote this song after a few rum based cocktails. I appreciate the feedback and I will certainly consider your suggestions as the song was never really even mixed or mastered yet. Just a rockabilly that I submitted for a "sultry jazz song". We dumped all the rock guitar tracks to fit the submission criteria. I write in many genres and this was a total experiment. Oh the things we do to make some noise. Aloha from Hawaii-Surf's-up! Literally.
No it's great fun and catchy too. I imagine you guys in white tuxedos, maybe smoking the odd cigarillo. I'm gonna lean back and enjoy my daiquiri !
thank you for the review we have lyrics for this just have to do the vocal really appreciate your comments thank you
Thanks for the critique - especially for being straight up & talking about the "cringe factor" - several lines have been changed since then but I don't have a new demo of them. Jen
No problem Jennifer, I was definitely aiming to be constructive. Listening to a few other things, you've a great voice and talent for writing pop songs.
thank you for the review of the water song we will take what you said and try to put it into our song. since we are young we have a ton of time to learn again thanks!! Emergency Exit!!!!
Absolutely, keep at it - you have some nice ideas.
Hey STAN! Thanks for the review of my comedy song, much appreciated!
Haha, you've just reviewed my effort and you were very fair. Yeah originality is probably what I have going for me. Oh well it's fun to mess around. Don't worry I haven't given up my day job! Cheers.
