In the midst of all the rabbits and eggs, may I present the true reason for the EASTER celebration.

God Bless,
Don

Although Easter has never meant nothing more to me than a chocolate bunny/chocolate egg kind of holiday, I must say this is a very well done piece of music.

Was this song written by you Don?

In any case, a fine job all around, both in performance and recording quality.

Ian,

I am very pleased that you gave this a listen. I know you are strong in your convictions and it means a great deal to me to hear your comments on my song. Yes this is an original piece of music composed on my venerable Korg PA 80 before I picked up my PSR S750.

God Bless,
Don

Don, what impressed me most was that you looked after the little details...this was no shoddy thrown together recording...I don't waste my time listening to (or commenting on) music where the performer/player couldn't be bothered to look after the details; to me, it's literally lack of respect for their own talent, as well as the intended listener.

You are obviously genuinely (more likely, passionately) dedicated to producing the best quality product you can, and even though the subject matter is not something I subscribe to, I can certainly appreciate dedication to producing quality work, and your ability to make the most of your instrument.

To me, the sounds you used, and the arrangement itself, evoked almost contrasting feelings of both mystery and hope.

Again, it is good work.

Ian

Nice song . Great lyrics and a simple but memorable melody . The only constructive criticism that I would add , Is that the use of the sweep pad throughout the entire song was a little bit distracting. Certainly, in the beginning setting up the atmosphere was great but it was a little overkill continuing throughout the song. Other than that it was good . Thanks for letting us hear your original work .
