Here’s a rehearsal of a song I’m working on as a gift for my lovely wife, Lisa. It’s not about her — it’s just one of my usual “love and loss” songs — but she likes it anyway so at least I’ve done something right.
Happy Valentine’s Day, darlin’.
Here’s a mastered stereo mix MP3 of the above, suitable for iPods and such:

The song is great! Good job, Jim!
Terrific.
Hi, Jim. I immediately took a liking to the melody, your playing and your singing. Frankly, though, I had a little difficulty staying focused on what you were communicating with the lyrics….so I listened to it a second time, but had the same trouble. Perhaps there are too many ideas, or sentences that are too lengthy. I think the length of the song may exacerbate the problem. Something closer to three minutes would, I feel, help the message to feel more focused. But that’s just my opinion, and it’s just my first impression. Or perhaps I just need some sleep! It IS past my bed time, so take these thoughts with a grain of salt. I love hearing your songs and look forward to hearing your “final” version of this one.
Great melody, love the key change. You have a great voice too - very soothing.
