The full title is:    What were you thinking

  This is the lyrics posted in the lyric review...  anyway, I was working on a different instrumental piece, and just kind of added her lyrics to it, and it worked, so I had to record it, although I ended up using her vocal stylings, as mine are not very good...  so here is me on guitars, and Linda( My Mrs.) on Vocals...   I hope you enjoy it......

This is a far cry from what I have put on lately..  This is a more serious recording.. no goofing around on this one.. though It was put together fast, I don't have a real good way to record vocals, so the quality is bad on the vocal track... but  hopefully I can repair that later...  

                              Thanks, and enjoy...

I have a feeling that the more simplicity there's in a song, the better (within certain limits of course), and this one has proved to be a simple but greatly enjoyable song.

I wish I had this talent to write simple songs, they are so singable, but by saying that I donot mean anything derogatory, Jim - on the contrary.

I have enjoyed it a lot and u can give your mrs a kiss for a job well done. OH,  Why is the ending so abrupt?

Cool song, mate!
Loved the melody and vocals... this was a mix of Neil Young with Janis Joplin.
Really good song... some quality re-adjusting and you have a sure hit!
You are making a great job!

Thank you.... your kind words are very welcome...    I am working on re-doing the vocal tracks... that should improve the quality...  Then I can get the levels better... right now they are a bit out of wack to compensate for the poor quality vocal tracks....  
                    Will re-post once I get it fixed up, while I am working on it, if anyone has any other comments or ideas, let me know... thanks...

It reminds me of a hidden track on the ministry album "dark side of the spoon" but that was a cover of a song called "summertime" and sung through a telephone.

Your techno songs have opened my ears to your mixing style, and in that I can say that from this minimalist concept you have created a pure piece of art. Those panned vocals do wonders.

It keeps me listening - it transmits so much down-to-earth humanness, it's very real - it's brilliant.

bravo!

Very Cool
I love the way you made this sound! 
The singing is great too!  Very emotional.
The emotion of the song really comes through in the music and vocals.

Thanks guys.....

      Really appreciate the feedback...     BTW, JBP, I never answered why the ending is so abrupt?  Because this is still in it's infant stage... I am hoping to have some drum and bass added in, as well as a better quality vocal track, so I can get the levels straightened out... I have the vocals up as much as I can without it getting distorted, so I had to bring down the guitars and it came out kind of off, but hope to have it worked out in time for the march battle....

sigh. the guitar work on this is amazing. very talented. I have not heard acoustic sound like this in a while. My uncle could do this, go high on the neck and bend the crap out of it. difficult to get that kind of lead work on an acoustic that high on the neck. your good. I can't help but be mesmorized by the vocals. it says you are re-doing it, I hope you get it done soon, I want to hear it.
