I really like this song, the melody very familiar just grabs you, fine lyrics too and a good job on the vocals and conviction to the lyrics.

This song grabs you. Sounds like something from a Victrolla. The vocals and lyrics are outstanding. A haunting melody.

Joyce,
Simply beautiful story of you and your father.. I'm a sucker for these type of songs and this one grabbed me and kept me listening right to the end. I loved it!!!
As far as the production,,, My nephew told me that I should take my hundreds of old songs I recorded on four-track cassettes and other and run them into what's called an Audio Cleaning 2.0 software program on my computer through my usb thing...I guess the programs are pretty amazing for cleaning and enhancing music.. Because I don't have a mixer program, this is what I use... I have a free program I downloaded from cDex that converts mp3's to wavs and you can do pretty much the same using filters and enhancement stuff. Anything is worth a try.
I wish you good luck and happiness. This charming little song of yours made me feel good.. and I thank you!!

Hi Joyce,
I'm so honored and glad that I came upon you and your page and music today, I was leaving a message on another person's page today and seen something from you there and had to come and see your songs.
All I've had time to listen to so far is...Daddy's Dreams. Wow, beautiful song, beautiful guitar and lyrics and really like your voice. I'm like another person who was on your message board, I will be back to slowly savor your songs here one by one in the future also. You are truly a huge inspiration and thanks for sharing your story and beautiful songs here. I would really love if you could take a listen to my music sometime. I'm a singer/songwriter and have a few very basic and simple songs posted here as well, on a machine that broke on me last yr, little 4trk, haven't been able to record any songs I've written lately, but hope to again one day. Would really love to hear your opinions.
Take care and keep on keepin on! ;)

This is beautiful, Joyce. After reading your background, something like this has a pretty big emotional impact. Your lyrics don't hurt any either.
I gave you 5 stars all the way around, including for production. I know what it was like to record back in those days on inexpensive equipment with no effects, no compression, no ... anything to help other than the song itself. Yet you managed to record a very moving song.

Very Nice Song....Good Job :)
