Gotta admit, i was doing a bit of a jig while listening to this song, and im not one to jig! Great, feel good song. The rhythm really drove it forward, and Im all for spreading the "happy" word. Easy to read, and easy to sing too, i imagine!
@virtualbusking hey up cheers for stopping by again.. glad ya connection held up in time to catch a few songs... thanks for listening and for your comments and keep up the good work yourself bud! was a fun vid to make for sure on this one!!
Great job!! My cousin showed me your videos and I love them!! This is my favorite(I bought it on iTunes!). My cousin and I think you will be famous one day!
@varesy the landscapes are incedible in your videos! it looks like you have great fun putting this together. ---------I have one other studio version that I did and just posted the other day....it was a bit rushed, but I was happy with it....i will send it over to you. Thanks for the friendship and hope you make it out to Cali to play some time soon. keep me posted bless
@pauldpru hey man thanks.. yeh we have some beautiful places around here.. this was a spu of the moment and me and my little bro just grabbed a bag of stuf from the house.. umbrella,babys toys n stuff... paper and pens and off we went down the local woods... took lonker to make the little boat than it did the video..hahah.. was great fun tho ... and yeh for sure id love to get over there... you never know... touring starts feb 1st with the duo "we steal flyers" for 100 gigs in 100days.. :)
@kilidebusking thanks a lot man!! and thanks for your support!! :) ... few more originals n the back which i need to record soon so l get them together and get some new videos up!! :)
great video but at 2 25 the vocals cut out and it freezes? posted on my blog with some instructions on how to get this national coverage on the ellen degeneres show. I'm assuming she's going to get a kick out of the video.. play it and fix it before sending it to her though..
posted on the idea girl says word press for tv and movie producers to take a look at.
@ideagirlconsulting hi i sent you a message asking to check it out again. as i dont have any problems here with it sticking.. also had a few others test it too but no problems? can you give it another run through just to make sure it isnt at your end?

Shaggy, its a wonderful happy song, love the lyrics and melody. You play a mean guitar like i have said before. Justin is right, how do you achieve the professional sound quality recording.
take a closeup snapshot of your behringer input and output settings for your vox and guitar and send it to me i'm curious to see how things are setup, if you don't mind......
@AcousticPhases hi mate basically i just record the mic straight into the desk ... a se 2200a and play the song live into it.. main guitar and vocals.... which goes straight into cubase.. then add some bits n pieces over the top.. harmonies.. claps..shaker.. that kinda thing.. the eq is comppletely flat on the desk and if it needs anything i add a little verb in cubase and eq if theres any problems :) hope this helps man!!
@smallmercy hahahhah hey man.. thanks again ..hope ya doing well bro.... cat in the hat...hahah.. i dont even know where it came from.. i came bak drunk with it one night and has sat in my roomm since.. thought it was bout time to put it to good use :)
