old stuff... removed

Good job guys! I think some of the phrasing in a couple of places could be "less forced" but nothing other than that -

Man, I love "One More Night" in the finished stage! I've heard the very rough demo, so I can see how it's progressed. The only suggestion I'd have is to turn the vocals up a bit.....but otherwise, very good job, Case.BTW, I didn't write those lyrics, but thanks for the mention.

Hey ChitsYou didn't write the lyrics , but I recall bouncing ideas off you and other friends from here. So, you helped and I appreciate that...Thanks Bill and Chits... And this is a rough demo- we can work on vocal level and phrasing as we progress to a final version. Casey

I think this is awesome. The Punk-style gives the song life & quirkiness, and with a little tidy up, I can think of lots of listings this would be good for. Good job, you two!!!... I respectfully disagree that vocals should come up much more in the mix. This is will be a film/tv pitch, I believe, and in that case, the vocals need to sit pretty much at the same level as the instruments, and this sounds right to me.

I felt like dancing in front of my computer with my hands in the air. Right on! I love it.

Maybe that's why the vocals may have been off to me. We both do agree that this is an awesome song!

And, again mega-thanks to Keith (B-Flat)... If this is his ROUGH demo... BTW, One idea I have for a mid-section of the song is drums with clapping to the phrase "one more night, one more night in NYC" like at a concert. Casey

Casey,I really like the lyric, but the melody just didn't do it for me. I thought it seemed too repetitive and the chorus hook did not grab me. Not a bad listen, the performance is good, there is a lot of energy, but not original enough in the melody area for my ears ... Well, the good thing is everyone disagrees with me. They all like it a lot. Must be my problem.Dean

No worries Dean, thanks for the listen and feedback... There's no point in posting if you don't get people's honest reactions. I do think the chorus differentiation could be a touch better and something to think about for the final. Casey
