Love it all, but my fave was the "How many wows are there..." Maybe that should be #2?

Sweet! I can honestly say I've never heard a demo before that had both the words "smooshed" and "annals" in it. Wink

RGS ! Really Great Stuff.

The bit (Wow) was so good that I would move it to second place. It sounds very different from the opener, which was also great.

Liked it so much, that I had to listen to it twice Smile

It's like sitting by the fire, sipping hot cocoa while Santa reads me tales from the Neverending Story. Also, he's a wizard.

Fantastic work, Bruce!

I've listened to this so many times I feel like I can recite it without thought while doing dishes. I haven't wanted to comment in case I'm wrong. However, I keep listening because one thing stands out every time, even when I tell myself I must be wrong. My ears hear the first and second parts are too similar. I want to play with the raw audio but can't so I play the first part then skip to the "nude celebrity" part because they are different enough to make a statement. I like the way the first and second part flow nicely together but I feel that is because the sound is too similar. I want to hear your variety RIGHT AWAY. The audio is crisp and clean, the background music and effects perfect. What I feel is missing is immediate diversity.

I know I'm very late in replying. It's because I didn't want to give my opinion too hastily to a man who's voice and career I admire. Carry on with your bad self.
