Song Information:
Carol and I became friends on the original mixposure site and to date she is the only OMD friend that I have met in person. We have done a couple of collabs together and I have always admired her work with lyrics.
Lyrics: A Two Grand Wager |
|
I have heard this on the Mix radio show before! Has a celtic feel to it! Love the vocals and very well arranged! Nice! |
|

|
Brian, I just can't thank you enough for this and the other collaborations. In fact I feel honoured that you wanted to work with me. |
|
Right off the bat this grabbed me! I would gladly bang beer glasses while listening to this. Excellent! I love lyrics like this. Good playing and good vocal delivery. My hat's off to you folk!! |
|
Great Song !!!! Wonderful instrumentation and Great Vocals.... Great Feel.....Very distinct style... |
|
Perfect example of the attention to details. Great vocal job Brian, and all the fine nuances of this piece. Wonderful blend of instrumentation that expertly suits the lyrical content. It all works supremely here. I never fail to be entertained and inspired by your work. Great!!! ~Blake |

darn- i typed a review and it dfailed-- test -- shane |
|
now some might say...Hey Cee....this aint your kinda music.......they would be wrong....my feet were tapping from beginning to end.....lively lovely music with a vocal performance that adds authenticity....impeccable musicianship and songcrafting....well done! |
|
ohh my friend i do love the guitar melodies and harmonies...very good vocal line...very welldone arrangement...great job my friend..classical folk sound, i heard and this is perfect...so lovely.. |
|
Seriously, I need a beer to listen to this track, those square dancing immediately appearred in my mind. Too bad, in real life, I can't drink and dance due to my poor body. Brain, you should be proud of yourself - singing at this age with such energetic passion - man, I felt so depressed, I can't do that. Carol definitely has a heart for words that are so refinded and joyful. A neat collaboration indeed. |
|
Oh Brian, what a lovely song. I love the irish style very, great instruments and wonderful vocals. One of my fav songs from you. The mood are fantastic and touch my soul. Very great collab. |
|
brian i hope you saw the review for black rain i wrote.. your vocals were totally awesome on that one.. maybe the best i've heard.. this is a totally different kind of song.. more troubador style.. reminds me of the tale of jacque alot.. love the squeezebox.. and the melody lead on guitar with smooth tone.. it's grand story telling which is your hallmark.. kudos to carol.. and you've expressed her lyrics strong and well.. give em hell mate.. give em hell.. cheers.. :-) |
|
Hah! What a great tune! The lyrics are fantastic...nice job! And the music bringing them to life is spot on! ...and bring to life it does (lively and articulate are a couple'a words that come to mind) I love it when the music conveys the sentiment of the lyrics, and that's exactly what's happening here! Nice one! |
|
simply a great song to listen to! Carol's lyrics tell a cool story and Brian delivers in a big way. You're another one Brian, |
|
WOW! YOU NAILED THIS! AWESOME MUSIC!!!! Just to good! just love it man! CONGRATS ON THIS KILLER TUNE!!! Blown away! Its just REAL GOOD!!!! |
|
Very well put together!! great arrangement and performance. Like the instrumentation and i agree with margot on that "folky vibe"Awesome!! |
|
Hey Brian and Carol! I really enjoyed this folky, musical story you two put together-- and it's arranged very beautifully, indeed. It does have a celtic tone, and the music is perky and fun. Lyrics are outstanding as well. Very, very well done and enjoyable. |
|
WOW..... This is songwriting !!! Brian and Carol awesome collab !The attention to detail, tasteful playing ,,superb production make this one outstanding song. Brian, you have an incredible ear for what works,everything in its place..:-) BRAVO !!!! |
|
Carol is a legend in the independend scene, her lyrics are incredible and her talent to find the finest collaborations for most soulful performances has made me a fan and a friend of her, already years ago. I remember that you've already met her, Brian, and you must have spent such a good, creative time.... Nothing less to say than you are a GENIUS with your HOT power voice and the power-upspeed folk arrangement. Solos remind me a bit of Mike Oldfield's earlier times when he still played on real instruments, with 1,000 fingers, as it appeared to me. And I wish you 1,000 reviews now, if any song deserves it - then "Two Grand Wager"! Love'n'hugs to you and Carol. |
|
very cool tune. Carol I loved the lyrics on this song. Very well done all the way around. Brian you did a fantastic job with the music and vocals. Cathy melody and a fantastic hook. I really like what you two have done! |
|
Love this lively little number..Brian sings carols lyrics to great effect here. :-)Really like the "folky" vibes oozing out of this one...The music`s really appealing here Brian.:-)A wonderful "collab" Carol and Brian.. congrats :-) |
|
What a great, fun song! I love the musical arragement Brian and Carol's lyric are put together cleverly to cover a true story. I like this a lot! Those are some pretty tasty Celtic riffs on that guitar! Nice collab and enjoyed it immenscely! |
