Christmas Greetings :)

[wallabie]

Hello Folks,

it´s christmas time isn´t it . And for this reason we - "The Back Country Connection" - has created the Christmas Song "Snowflakes on the Mountain".... 10 Singers share the lead vocals on this tune. I would be really glad if you could have a listen to it. The song has already some Webradio-Cover and is available at ITunes and stuff

The Genre is Country Rock...so I think....

Snowflakes On The Mountain

Verse 1:
Far away from the city
Miles and miles outta town
Snowflakes are falling
They just keep comin' down
Up on the mountain
The snow's gettin' thick
And everywhere you look
It's startin' to stick
Everything stops moving
The whole world's standing still
The snow keeps on falling
In the winter chill

Chorus:
Snowflakes on the mountain
They just keep fallin' down
A white coat of winter
Covers all the ground
The whole wide world is quiet
It's such a wondrous sight
Sparkling in the darkness
A mountain top silent night

Verse 2:
The pine trees are all white
Their branches full of snow
Our little road's covered
But we've no place to go
We'll just stay at home
And sit next to the fire
As the snow keeps falling
And the drifts get higher
We'll pass the night
Cuddled up in the fire's glow
The two of us together
And enjoy the snow

Chorus:
Snowflakes on the mountain
They just keep fallin' down
A white coat of winter
Covers all the ground
The whole wide world is quiet
It's such a wondrous sight
Sparkling in the darkness
A mountain top silent night

Outro:
We want to wish you a Merry Christmas...
...Merry Christmas to all
We want to wish you a Merry Christmas...
...Merry Christmas to all...

To warn you up-front, I don't really like Christmas music (or Christmas, frankly). That said ... nice. I like the basic track quite a bit, and the melody is pleasant. I'd love to see more use of all those voices, rather than mostly in succession, together in harmony. And the guitar solo tone didn't fit the track's style, to my ears: rawk meets Spector. But those are a grumpy f*cker's personal hang-ups. This is cool. Good job. Oh, and one other thing I really do like: when multiple voices are used, and you can hear their individual character, it really can make a more interesting listen. This does that.

Thank you Luther...
yeah, my Co-Producer said the same thing about the Guitar... but I wanted to have it in because I think it´s cool The first demo had some "woom-poop-duh-wah" and some "hum-bub"... "hum-bub"... and so on... because I wanted to do it in a Beach Boys Style, but then we had to go for something else to get some Webradio-Support ... pöööhhhh ... but I like the way it is...

Thank you for your opinion Luther, means a lot
Martin

The most important part of songwriting / recording / producing.
