Hi Happy to get any and all kinds of feedback on this if you listen and Thanks ! http://soundclick.com/share?songid=9254595A Day Like This © J. Marie / C. Stewart ( May 16, 2010 ) Can't wait to taste it I don't want to waste it Clean fresh air so sweet Mister sun, shining down On a day like this... CHORUS... When a day like this comes along All my troubles feel long gone Puts me in a sweet sweet bliss On a Day like this Long to embrace it Happy to face it Heat waves beat Not a cloud, going by On a day like this... CHORUS... When a day like this comes along All my troubles feel long gone Love a sweet kiss On a Day like this nothing pressing just your warm skin resting on my arm nothing pressing just sweet kisses by the barn Can't wait to taste it Don't want to waste it A day like this CHORUS... A day like this comes along all my troubles feel long gone Love a sweet kiss On a Day like this Let's chase it Can't replace it A day like this A day like this

Joice,
This is a nice light piece that is a pleasure to listen to. Reminds me of a 70's folk song. Really enjoyed the simplicity and the harmonies were a good fit.

Hi Joice:
Diggin' this. Such a cool vibe - has a 60's California pop/rock feel to it for me. Love the change into the bridge - lovely and unexpected!

Really sweet song. Your voice gives it a dreamy quality. Well done, Joice and Calvin. Kind of Paul and Mary while Peter was out sneaking a smoke.

Hi Scott
Like California Dreaming or Summer Breeze -- those kinds of songs always moved me... I was looking for a feel - seems like I'm getting closer as time goes on for at least being in the ballpark - thanks for noticing that bridge ; ) ! jm

Sounds like a winner JM & Calvin! Extra cool when the male vocal enters. The minimal perc works well. Best, John

Hi Joice,
I've got one big nit, but overall this is really strong. I like your vocal and Calvin's harmony vocal. The verse is REALLY catchy. The lyrics are really focused.
My big nit... the verse is REALLY catchy. IE it's more catchy than the chorus. You're doing the right thing with the chorus by making it melodically higher than the verse. The problem is it still doesn't compete with your really strong verse. I don't know if you want to got back to the drawing board and write a new chorus. Regardless, you've got a super catchy verse and overall it's well crafted.
Peace,
Ian

Nice story telling and I love the music this style suits you voice perfectly. I can almost smell the grass and feel the heat of the sun. Perfect choice of percussion and your lyrics paint a vivid picture.
Well Done.
