Hope is what dreams are made of
After listening to today's pop music I would say this song is misclassified.. This is more akin to modern jazz and sounds like something Astrid Gilberto would have done. The soft soothing style complements the male vocal well and gives us the listener a compelling urge to listen to him sing his tale. The song is produced and arranged well. I might add a little more reverb to the vocal to soften the edges but keep the tail end short so as not to muddy the vocals

Hermosa evocación
Me encanta tu canción, es agradable, evocadora, sostenida en un tiempo con reminiscencias del smooth jazz que tanto me ha gustado siempre. Además, cantarla en dos idiomas, uno de los cuales es el mío, me pareció muy rico e interesante. Felicidades

nice idea
Dear Alain G I really enjoyed your Man with hope. I liked the ambient and the guitar. Probably for a so nice song it would have been interesting to play it with a band. The sound is artificial to my ear, and it is not convinving me. I don't know if it is a matter of mix or a matter of midi tracks. It is also true I have a different music background , more popular and simplier. I hope you can benefit by my comments. All the best from Stefano Moranera, Italy.

Warm and Soulful
Very nice creation. The listeners attention is immediately focused as the saxophone enters with a sweet, but melancholy feeling. The figuration is clear and concise without too much clutter. The chord progression is astounding the way it modulates with exquisite taste. The lyrics are in both English and Spanish to gain a wider audience reach which is wonderful so more people can understand the great talent presented. Create hope in your soul by listening over and over to the awesome composition 'Man with Hope'!

Man with Class
Nice smooth track from AlanG. Atmospheric vocal sits over a great acoustic guitar based backing track. Beautiful textures highlight the voice which fluctuates cleverly between English and French.

I really love this song!
I have a feeling for good music. Best conditions to write something about it. This song goes to the heart and touches the soul. I love the intro with the saxophone and a jazz-solo with it, could make the song some more interesting. But why do I tell this? I really love the song, but I have a problem with the offbeat from the drums. There are some sequences where the rhythm takes the drive. I recommend more latin and less complicated rhythm. This song is not far away from normal radio hits. A rework of the drums would do well. Listen to the song and if you like add him. Let others know your recommendation.

Great background music
Very chilled out track, could easily play as background music in restaurants, hotels etc. Interesting arrangement, creating nice suspense in the intro, however, some sounds seem very dated. It's missing a hook that would make me want to listen to it over and over.

Man with Hope
Very nice production with a smooth and soulful vocal. Nice light feel with solid instrumental backing, good horn work and rhythmic feel. Very pleasant and nice bed for a film. Evokes images of hope, in both English and Portuguese.

BOM TRABALHO
Olá Alan o trabalho é muito legal e com um bom gosto dos samplers do teclado efeitos muito bons que deram certo com a harmonia, sou brasileiro e entendo um pouco do que cantas e tem uma msg muito interessante á cerca da melodia que escolhestes. Os efeitos do teclado são muito legais foi o que mais me impressionou bem casado com a levada do batera que faz uma levada de caixa e chimbau, muito bons. Espero ouvir novos trabalhos e muito sucesso Augusto Hijo - Compositor Brasileiro

Espoir
:) Bonjour Alan, (J'imagine que venant de la France vous parlez français! Alors je vais vous écrire ce petit mot.) J'ai bien aimé votre chanson porteuse d'espoir. Elle est toute en douceur et relaxante. Elle porte à la réflexion. Je m'empresse d'aller écouter vos autre chanson pour écouter vos autres chansons.

Story-Telling Song!
This tune gives a scene, and is like a narrative. I find that this song is a pice of story-telling work, and in that sense, it could be called an epic, instead of lyric. The world projected by the sound track is nice and smooth, mixing and mastering done rightly. It is also what I feel, that it might be nice to make a jazz version of this song - I feel somehow that the song words and flow would go well with smooth jazz. The switch in language, between English and Spanish, I suppose, is interesting. I am not exactly certain whether the language switch is favourable to audience, but I'd say the flow of the vocals as a track in itself is very nice. Lots of hope in this song - Well-done! :DDD
