END OF THE DAY (The Iris Brickfield Mix)
A really nice guitar sound, subtle and powerful percussion and excellent vocals. I like this a lot, nice clean production, and a positive, uplifting feeling with an interesting bridge. Well done!
I know I commented already but I was running around listening to songs and I wanted to reiterate how good this song is! Super song!
Nice guitar and sound on everything! This song reminds me a bit of an Allman Brothers song "Sweet Melissa". Very nice !
thank you for the coments , mean alot, very powerful compozition here , very good vocal mixed with a very powerful sound , great.
I really like this one guys, fantastic!!! You have such a great head for music. The building and melody/harmonies is top notch. Easily rated and well deserved of #1.
really like the solid vocal melodies and the guitars sound very natural beneath....everything here in the right amounts...very enjoyable track..love the perfect balance of message and soulful feel.
Thanks PJ and Paul and to everyone else who took the time to listen and comment. Much appreciated. The lads from Alive and Iris Brickfield.
Hi James. Thank you so much for your message. Also a massive congratulations to you and the band on scoring another No.1 this week. You guys are brilliant and this site would not be the same without you. Look forward to hearing your next track featuring the great guitar sound of Michael Richie! PJ
Congratulations guys.It must feel great to finally have a number 1 hit Paul.
great acoustic and melodic flow. the electric is a good thickener and the string adds a nice spacey vibe. yes, excellent vocal, I hear influences I like. bass guy can't be forgotten either.
Every Song you guys do is always a treat , they have a catchy - ness about them and well arranged. The only thing i have to say on this one is , it sounds its in three layers kinda thing , the Guitars 1. Vocals 2 and Drums 3 (They sound 3 seperate Takes) I KNOW It differcult when doing Collabs !! but that doesnt take anything away from the quality of what you guys Create ... Thumbs UP !!! Wonderfulness :)
Hi James, genius is a very strong word my creative friend but I will blush profusely and take it :O) . The idea is to work from the most basic music programs I can find and see where I end up :O) " End Of The Day" Nice arrangement lift into the close, Doubled lead vocal work is a little loose never the less a good strong vocal for sure. Arrangement. / production over all is high. Peace & Respect
Yet another great track.Well done guys. Loving the mix Iris. I always look forward to your next track with anticipation.Rated Paul.
Beautiful song, fellas! Superb production and some stellar performances, the drum track makes my fingers itch and that's a very good thing, lol. Sweet vocals and a nifty arrangement too, well done all!
Hi guys, It's brilliant that you've teamed up with the amazing Iris Brickfield. I loved Distance and you've produced another great track. Your vocals are excellent. Hope you score another chart-topper with this. You deserve it! All the very best. My next track should be out next week. PJ
Nice man!!! You've got such a smooth... dare I say.. Peaceful style. Glad I got a chance to hear this... Eric
Absolutely lovin this track - big thumbs from me! C;)
a nice build up at the start and nice vocals a great all round performance well worth a vote
Good tune, chaps. Production wise it sounds like it needs a little gluing together. Drums sound sort of distant. Maybe use a bit of parallel compression to stick em in the mix. I guess they are EZDrummer, I recognise the kit, which is good but can sound so much better. The reverb on the vox sounds a bit lo-fi ish and I'm sure could be improved. But I like the vibe of the whole thing. Rate.
darned if I know IB's real name but he could be singing this one. Got all your signatures on this un...
Another great track from you guys with excellent lyrics and vocals. Drums provide a modern feel that fits so well with the melody strings and rhythm. Good songwriting and an excellent mix... On 2nd listen already!!!
Oh yeah, this is so easy on the ears. Love the flow and drive and those subtle strings are icing on this tasty cake of a tune. The opening reminded me of Bread but soon was so not so. A great melody but what else should I expect from you guys but great melodies and you always deliver!
Nice track guys, it has a very dynamic and live vibe to it, super writing too. Lovely energy harmony and musical elements all coming together nicely.
Another great track guys! Very cool song with a touch of classic and modern feel mixed very well. The electric guitar came in at a perfect time and the ending was very interesting. Well written, produced and performed. Love the lyrics and the vocals that sang them. I know that was James singing because we listen to your songs all the time and know every one of them very well. Another gem and always keep them coming. Keep the faith and keep moving forward!
Sounds good! The opening guitar rythm reminded me of "The Allman brothers" but not to say this song sounds like them because it doesn't. This is a different approach from you guys and it's a good one! My ears wanted to hear the rythm guitar more present and less dry but that is mere preference and I wouldn't change a thing! You guys have done another astounding job -especially the vocals! That's what really stands out and dazzles my ears on this one. Very impressed with that!
Nice live vibe on this...the drums do sound very much so :) another top performance guys :) very much enjoyed...peace,Ricky
Sweet harmonies...love the building to what I know is coming! There it is...the electric sounds sweet behind this acoustic gem...really nice job! Thumbs all around guys!
Love the "Iris" touch! The "live" vibe comes through....The lyrics..."...someopne you used to know becoming a stranger.." starts the journey and imagery...Drums are lively..nice guitars/bass....the LV and harmonies...carry the intensity of this exploration of self/change/relationships..."..the end of the day is so far.." Great lines...haunting synth was a great touch at the end. BIG thumbs!
