I really enjoyed that Brian!
The ping pong ball percussion effect was really interesting and very creative. I also really enjoyed the bridge section. As others have said, you definitely have a talent for lyrics!

That was nice, Brian. The ping-pong thing gave it a special drive and I like those āsparklingā chords very much as a contrast to the catchy rhythm element of the ping-pong machine. Enjoyed it very much!

Hi @NicoleKKB , thanks for the listen and encouragement
You can never have enough icing on a cake!
@twistor59 Haha, my drum-programming friend.
Yes I had to slow down and mute for the ālow bridgeā
Serendipity had it though, that my song finished at the same time as the video, so I didnāt even have to go into āloop modeā 
Thanks Mank @TheCluelessLuthier . Drummers are often the bane of the band, although Iāve been lucky to have a brother who can provide a beat when required
Aw thanks @Mari63 . The good book is a treasure trove of artistic material- Good, bad and ugly
Hey @jkahn thank you very much. High compliment acknowledged and appreciated! 
I do sometimes feel that my āartistic giftā lies mainly in identifying things l like (and sometimes combining them with other stuff)
@Silvia80 mille grazie
Soon weāll all be able to say: āAlexa put a cool drumbeat to my crappy songā¦ā and it will be good.
Vielen Dank Andrea @Helen0609
Haha, I think what you describe as āsparkling chordsā is simply poor hammer-on technique with a bit of fret buzz 
Thereās only alternate bass plucking and muted hits. Still, Daddy says if it sounds goodā¦

That was brilliant, Brian.
You have a creative mastermind and Iām a little bit jealous. You made music out of a (weird, but somehow very cool) video of some ping pong ball rhythm machine. Thatās just great. Liked the guitar part, sounded good and fits the tune perfectly. Lyrics also really cool. Yes, I still go for brilliant and I donāt care if itās partially inspired by others (I think, thatās how this whole arts and music thing works anyhow).
Thanks for sharing!

We all look at aspects of othersā musical journeys through green eyes.
Youāre on the right path- Practicing your instrument, using it to create meaningful stuff and willing to share it with others. I find it quite liberating to try something ādifferentā and not to be too worried about looking foolish

Hi Brian, that was great, I got an old school TV theme tune feeling from it. You are a lyrical genus, definitely no plagiarism, just inspiration. For the percussion did you steal Enrique Iglesias ping pong machine? Very cool and super entertaining indeed.

Fine fine work Brian!! That percussion, both sound and video, is mental in the best possible way! A very moody feel to this one and the slightly more subtle singing tone suits you well. Inspring all around!
Make sure you get some royalties from Lieven

The generosity of fellow musicians always astounds me, especially of those who are much farther down this path than I.

Indeed there was a bit of ācollaborationā on the night.
Iām trying to track down audio/visual footage that may have been taken, and if successful, will post it here
Wow that was very different
Cheers mate.
I take ādifferentā as a big compliment
Yea man that was so good and the thought process that went into that is way above my intelligence. So yea take that as great job
@brianlarsen
Well, Brian, youāve made your lace out of words, music and ping pong balls!
I am amazed and delighted
However, for this, as a non-native English speaker, I had to deal with your references to primary sources in order to understand the deep meaning and appreciate the wordplay. Well, at least I saw how Colditz looks in the picture these days - a very pretty castle
What else I want to say: you are very good at songs in the musical style of minimalism, really 
And in general, the overall score of this hit is 12 out of 10.
