At least the screener was nice about it: "Thank you Peter for submitting your version of "Don't Worry BAby",very nice, but too retro in the feel. The listing asked for mainstream pop sounds."

and I agree!

Sometimes I just like to roll the dice
The song is on my taxi page if you'd like to hear the mess ...

Enjoy,

Yup, Retro.... LOL

next time put some wobble bass in it eh? LMAO!

Haha Russell!!

I was so tempted to, but wanted to keep it "middle America friendly" for an "old-school" supe.

Hey Peter, I liked your version, and yep agree on its retro-ivity. I got a similar return on my version, with the screener saying the instrumentation is pop, but the vocal not pop enough (compared to Jack Johnson, etc). I was trying to thread the needle and missed the mark.

It's on my Taxi page if you want to hear another take. Thanks for posting, I like hearing other versions.

hey Jim,

I like the guitar sounds you got - think they sound great. I also see the comment about the vocal - probably in the chorus was the place to really go a different direction.

Peter, ya know, i could hear a different take on what you did that would have kicked it a different direction - like kind of an indie-folk kinda thing - take out the harmony ooh's off the top. Maybe add some loose claps, and a tamborine on 2+4

. good to hear all the different ways it can go.

thanks for posting both of you.

Yeh Andy,

Again, who knows WHAT they put in the "maybe" pile

Jim, I like yours too! It's tough because that song just has some inherent "retro" vibe imbedded in it.

Thanks for listening!
