Written as a contribution to the "living wake" of my friend Michelle, who turns 40 this week.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHELLE you are wonderful!
The bird sounds were accidentally added when i set the tune to video for her birthday tribute (I had thought garageband stripped audio from imported video tracks).
Finally noticing the problem of speakers with this one. Sounded fine monitoring on headphones, but when I listen on my laptop speakers all the bass drops out! I boosted the volume on the bass tracks to compensate, which still sounded OK on headphones... but I bet there's bass tricks out there that could help
PS. sorry if this sounds too much like other tracks I've posted. I've probably got one good song in me that keeps squeaking out in different variations.

Michelle sounds like a wonderful plant mom. Very cool vibe on this track! The wind chimes are perfect for this with this dissonant overtones. Love it. Also, one of the most useful bass tricks someone showed me is using parallel saturation/distortion to make it pop out without having to boost too much. I'd definitely recommend checking out a youtube tutorial on it if you dont use that already.
Having one song type is the basis of a solid career. Fans will know what to expect, new people will know to listen to your whole work, old followers will begrudge you for changing.
I like the bell in this.
Ahhh it is a preset on my oft neglected Ultranova. I like it too. Sucker for synth bells.

Yes she is and I hope I have the werewithal to look this up. I'm an old dog... Appreciate your advice immensely though!!!
Whoaaa, this is really cool. Kinda getting a spooky VHS fantasy movie you found in some shop vibe.
Pretty! What a great gift for Michelle. Those that keep the gardens alive are treasures.

Yes she is a gem!
Haha, this is great! Love the vocals and lyrics along with the melodic counterpart. Almost Flaming Lips type of feel.
