I like the new music. It's not so Eastern that it doesn't sound melodic to me. The style makes it more obvious what the lyrics are about (duh, I missed it the first time). James, what an amazing talent you have for composing in different genres. Thanks for the feedback, Renee. Different music for different tastes. Some styles are definitely easier to do than others, but I like to at least try and stretch.....I appreciate your encouraging words.

Thanks for the listen and feedback. I'll keep playing around with it. :D

The verses might be improved by playing around with the words a bit - eg "preparing to fight" rather than "prepared to fight", maybe "tall tales told" instead of "tall tales". But thats just my thoughts - and might not suit what you are doing anyway.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group hagrider https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg11-week27-a-thousand-and-one/#post-382436 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg11-week27-a-thousand-and-one/#post-382433 Fri, 10 May 2013 16:35:58 +0000 Itseemed like I was listening to two different songs I suppose the music should have much more of a middle-eastern feel. I'm not sure how time will work out to make a new version, but I'll play around with it.


Thanks for the feedback. :D
