| Aubade by Narananda | 29 days ago |
| Well,I looked up Aubade on yahoo as I was not sure what it was...and I was treated to images of very interesting looking ladies in a range of flimsy decolletage and little else ! New genre indeed !! Then right at the bottom (ooer bottom) of the page I saw a definition of aubade ...a morning love song as oppose to a serenade,which is an evening love song.....to be honest I thought who would have the energy first thing in the morning ....it's got to be at least a mid morning love song !! nice work despite my leg pulling,cheers Jarvo |

| Nice...and we probably have had a likewise experience at some point in this onward cycle of events we call life !

| I Don't Want to be Here by Vixen | 5 months ago |
Pretty damned good vocal....and the backing is great too.....the sentiment is very heavy but actually I know someone who is in a position like that...more about the kids than the money though....and no this not one of those euphemistic " I have a friend who..." meaning me ...I do actuall know somebody else ....and that is quite an achievment in itself seeing as how cumurdgeonly I am !! Hang on how did we get there...you sing I write I admit to being a cumurdgeon....is this self analysis 101? Cheers Jarv The Odd as Ever |

| While I'm With You by Vixen | 5 months ago |
| I need to get round here more often...not been since the miserable wet weekend we called summer....but enough about me ...this is a very difficult song isn't it ? ....powerful message and obviously not a song to "enjoy" in the conventional sense but it really is very well performed by all concerned....... | |
| Don't Look Back in Anger by Vixen | 6 months ago |

|
| Those Dirt Walls by thenownows | 10 months ago |
| Well , if you are going to write a miserable song why not write the most miserable song ever? It makes some kind of strange sense. Sort of pro blues....I get Vixen 's nod toward FGTH as well.Excuse me ,just going to open a vein..........not neccesarily one of me own .............lol Oh by the way,the song is really very good ,excellently played and produced ....n'stuff. CJ |

| Moonlight Shadow (Cover) by Vixen | 10 months ago |
| I thought that his sis' sarah Oldfield had sung this ? Still I am a bloke and therefore am probably wrong....life,if nothing else ,has taught me this truth.Nice vox on this ...I have said that you and folk were made for each other..........sounded like a live stage performance ,only one slight nit and that it was very good but at the start you actually sound a bit nervous and the vocal is slightly rushed....but you settled down by the second verse and it is still an enchanting performance of a slightly surreal song.Loved it. Jarv the O |
