Yea I played it 1 whole take (1 of bout 150). I didnt use midi edting, I think it can take away from the natural feel of a piece.The time keeping is not the mistake I was talking about though. I brushed off two bass notes just as it goes into the high register near the end. I thought it might go unnoticed though! Oooops!

I love the 1546 progression with your original melody - it works very well in a minimal piano setting and you broke out of it gracefully and went back in gracefully.You should have a cover version of U2's With or Without You sung over the main progression and change the piano melody a bit to suit the vocals and add strings but keep it minimal. It would be super hot.

Congrats on your piece. Love the song and love the Ivory!

Thanks vleon! Yea I suppose the two songs would go well together...there's just one small problem, I absolutely DESPISE Bono, his voice and everyting about him! While I do like one or two of his songs, I couldn't record them without thinking of him, and I couldn't stand thinking of him for 2-3 hours...so I can't see that happening! Good suggestion though!
