One nit, and it may just be me but it sounds like the low notes on "Queen" are a little below the singer's "comfort zone", otherwise a great job-Yeah Bill, You got it right! The song was originally written for my friend Mini but she got sick just as we we're gonna do the vocals. So Henry stepped in to save the day, but yes the song is at the low end of his range as you noticed. Still he gave us a great vocal and I soo dig his voice on this.Thanks for the compliments!Cisko

I find this song's structure simpler compared to Queen... & I'm a fan of simplicity...However, I believe that Queen with No Crown stands a higher chance of getting the placement...Both Gr8 songs! My personal pref. is this "If You Read My Lips"Still listening now... really enjoying the guitar bridge... mmmm, nice! =)-KelThanks Kel!Yeah, you never know, so I tried to cover my bases. We'll see. I'll keep you posted on what happens.I agree on the guitar bridge, very interesting production from my buddy Jorgen.Best,Cisko

Cisko,I just typed out a long, detailed list of comments on this song and by the time I hit "Post Reply," I was logged out! Bummer. I'll try to summarize: - Queen = great tune...hear some Bowie - Very ambitious...4+ minutes. Were I the Creative Director, I'd see that as a bonus: you can drop the needle in many different places and hear something interesting and unique, but same vibe. - This song could be played behind a very extended scene; I'd pitch it also to the TV show, Life on Mars.V>

I would love to have heard some more from you. I heard some Bowie too when we recorded him. It's interesting what happens when you push someone past their comfort zone. Henry was a real trooper to sing this song in the key center it's in.Best,Cisko
