In this era of digital music, there is nothing like hearing an "unplugged" performance. This is really fantastic work. Less is sometimes more, and this song proves that.
Hey Bear! Just want to thank you for the kind comments this one took about 5 months to finish cause I wanted to get it right since I did not use much of a bass line. Smoothing things out for the next one. Hope to have done in a couple of weeks. Take care! Your Bud Fila
Looks like time has only made you better. You know how to lay down a bassline my friend and this track proves that. Wonderful vibe and a great way to start my day. Hope all is well.
Man it is a pleasure to hear from you. Everything is great. Glad you enjoyed the two tunes. Yea I am still looping. Always wondered where you were but I always had that classic of yours DAWN which turned out to be the most popular and played on my CD that I finally produced and distributed. Don't forget to pop it in when the Humming Birds come back so they can enjoy it also LOL. Take care my friend and I will be checking you out on a regular basis nice to see some of my original looperman buddies back on the loop.
BAD AZZ!!!!!! Hahaha, man this is stellar work. It might be a little repetitive, but I think that's part of the charm. The bass synth is just about as nasty as anything I've heard in a long, long time.
Man this is outstanding work.....not sure why 40 people downloaded the track but only 3 thought they should comment. Like Jody said, the bass is a little too far up in the mix, but other than that, this one is smokin'!!!!!
I'm not sure why this one hasn't received any comments, it's really a great track. It has an epic feel to it. Loved your vocal work (I always do).
My only critique would be the mix is a bit too "dry" for me, but that's just a matter of personal taste - or I need some new speakers for Christmas, haha.
Hey Bear! Sorry for the late reply to your comment. I truly appreciate it. I know the mix is really dry... a little experiment since I always am heavy on the reverb...lol. A swedish musician made a remix of it http://soundcloud.com/busstop18/ghost-04 with more reverb since he also thought this to be lacking... so no need to buy new speakers :D
Thank you :)

This is simply brilliant. I love the innocence of the vocals and your respectful treatment of them. This is wonderful from start to finish. It brought back memories of when my daughters were that age.
You have a really nice voice, great tonal quality, and your range is pretty spectacular. This was a really enjoyable listen. I look forward to more from you in the future. Thanks for posting this and sharing it with all of us.
Top shelf material here, wow. Great backing track Richie, really well played, and then when you put MIME4E's vocals in with your great instrumental, well, it moves into another level.
A great collaboration between two of the Loop's finest. I need a big fat "FAVORITE" button right about now, haha.
I really enjoyed the chilled vibe on this one. It is definitely cinematic and would work well in a movie. I really liked your guitar work on this one, very nice bass line too.
Every time I sit down to listen to one of your songs, I am star struck. Everything from your phrasing to your control, perfect pitch.....you are what I call a "singer's singer." If anyone is interested in how to do this the right way, they simply need to only stop by and listen to your work.
The bass line is amazing on this one, and the guitar solo, well, fantastic. Absolutely flawless.
But that should be no surprise because you continually set the bar very, very high.
Well done Coney. Definitely a stellar effort. A bit hip hop, a bit RnB, but a whole lot enjoyable. I would love to hear a rapper on this to see if you can take it to the next level. If not, it's pretty amazing as it is.
Vicen, great pop song here. Your voice is a perfect match for the music. Thanks for posting the translation as well. While it is nice to know what you are singing, your music is universal in its appeal.
Just checking through my tracks reviews and noticed I haven't responded to your comments here. My apologies.
I always appreciate your take on my work and particularly comments on the individual bits that make it up. Lots of acoustic guitar on this track (Ovation Celebrity) and most of it the old fashioned way using a mic (old school!) Farisha is such a talent - we need more quality like this.
Thanks again for taking the time to listen and post a review. Appreciate it.
Yesh, you have to finish this one bro. Great chilled vibe that once again shows why you are one of the Loops great producers. Old school, new school, you can do it all.
I'll check back frequently to see if you get it completed. Like the others, wish I had my "Favorite" button back!!!
Ms. Twanna, this is fantastic. My oh my, what a wonderful vibe you have created here, beautiful mix with everything sitting so nicely. The bass line is just wicked good.
Another fantastic effort from one of the Loop's finest. I hope you have been well. Thanks for sharing this one.
Hello...hello...hello Mr. Bear. Thank you so much for stopping by and paying a visit:) I so appreciate you sentiments. As I mentioned to Dylan (SpellJammer) there is a REMIX of this track with bg vox: http://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/103147
The speaking part is still there, but it is now a "call & response" type thing.
And I thought Slap Johnson was the only one with talented kids....you showed me, haha. Great job by both of you. As Michael said, the fabulous Kikajon's are one of the best acts on the Loop. Loved the guitar battle at the end....EPIC rock and roll.
Outstanding effort and kudos to both of you. Keep rocking you two.
Outstanding vocals and one of the best bass lines I've heard in a long while. I saw John thought the vox needed to come up a bit....they sounded pretty good on my system.
Very nice work from start to finish. It had me bobbin' and weavin' with the beat.
Hey H, hope all is well. I love the chord progression on this one and the guitar/pad combination is a bit Pink Floydish...very, very nice. Great bass line for sure. Nicely mixed.
Another stellar effort by the king of chill. Well done my friend.
Hey Bear ..thanks mate! much appreciated....I'm diggin this fretless,depending on where you position your right hand you can get so many different tones,from woody jazz all the way to sharp funk..cheers man Dave :)
I think this shows your range, not only in musical styles, but your vocal range in octaves :) This is really impressive work by both you and 520. Thanks for allowing me to twist things a bit. One of the best classical efforts I have ever heard on the Loop.
Ritchie, you nailed this one on the proverbial head. Great instrumentation....sounds like this one was recorded live in 1978 (and that's a good thing).
Awesome mix, and the vocals....well, they are perfect, as usual. Ms. MIM4E is such a huge talent, and together, you two are unstoppable.
This one is definitely ready for prime time. Well done to both of you. Thanks for a trip back in time.
Great to hear from you. The thing is I can remember playing live in 1978 (I was 28 and working in a club band in Chester, UK) and they were good times. I wanted an authentic disco dance feel to the track so pleased with your comments and glad you enjoyed the "retro" feel.
I think I have heard probably hundreds of different versions of this song, but by far, this is one of the best. I loved the blending of the children with your vocals.
Words cannot describe your talent. I would love a copy of this for Mama Bear's Christmas music collection on her IPod if that is possible.
You are sooooooooo good! You took a song I was just about ready to delete and turned it into something very special. I think you already know how big a fan I am of you work......
Thanks for sharing your gifts again and for turning this one into a real winner. You are absolutely brilliant.
