Jamid,
TY.
I considered writing a sad song but then I would have never been able to listen to it; I decided to make a song that would celebrate our lives together.
Mark.
This is one of my favorite hymns. I don't think I've ever heard an uptempo version, and certainly not with a guitar solo. Great work as usual Mark! :-)
I've never been an anxious or angry kinda person :-) but nowadays i'm learning a lot about tolerance...on the roads, workplace, sport stadiums, supermarkets, everywhere...life is a bit accelerated and frustrated, peaceful moments are needed...and this was that 5 mins...thanx for that Mark!!!
Love it bud ! kuddos to everyone making a more stripped down song, vocals, almost no midi but the drums. Lyrics are strong and the solo is tasteful. God bless !
Ya know...at this juncture in my life, I have learned that peace is necessary, without it things you go through in life can cause you to lose faith and hope. Indeed all these things work together!
[short story]
Each of us in the women's ministry at church were asked to pray on a word that we would focus on for 2019, my word is surrender. It isn't easy, in a lot of aspects in my life, but I truly want to get there with God, so I really like the lyrics!
TY so much for the kind words. Yes, the world seems to be coming unhinged these days but it only confirms (to me) that we are well on the way to seeing Christ's return. When I was writing this song, I can say without a doubt that the Holy Ghost was right there with me, helping to guide me each step of the way.
God is good. TY Lord.
Great song! There aren't very many Christian songs on here. The vocal track is nice. I like your voice, and the lyrics are good. The overall sound of the mix is clean. Great job with being bold in the Lord! Not sure if you like electronic fusion, but my featured track is Christian.
TY for the kind words. I will have to check out your track.
Being bold in the Lord comes from Him first and if He is first, all else falls into place in ones life. He desires that we have His peace because He loves us that much.
God bless you.
WOW nice work here MWR ! This is one of my many fave Rock classics and I got to give you major props man. You nailed the B3 sounds, the key stabs and slaps, drawbar manipualtion (or volume pedal), glissandro's, all the nuances that makes this one of Rocks most recognized keyboard greats. You no doubt have Joachim Young smiling down on you from Heaven man. Instant fave from me bro, I love it.
Steve is a Texas boy and I've seen him play a few times. One of my favorite classic rock tracks is his Fly Like An Eagle. I really love good cover tracks and you nailed this one bro. Great job, love it !
This song is very "understatement" ... everything is so relaxed and still it have groove.
Well done.
If I have to find a "critique point" ... the rhythm is a bit too "loopy": it would be interesting to hear more of a live feeling on drums and bass.
But I am nitpicking here... great production!
And probably I already told you this some time back, you have a very good voice.
Relaxed but interesting.
Liked.
Ciao, Domenico

TYVM for the compliment. I am glad that hearing this brought back good memories.
Sorry to hear about your father. I lost mine in 2015 and my mom in 1995.
what a groovy 3 mins...bass guitar is frantic as your vocs too...the atmosphere was very special for me...not a typical funky song...special build up...no chorus for example...really cool...
