    "Golden Slumbers" is based on the poem "Cradle Song" from the play Patient Grissel, a lullaby by the dramatist Thomas Dekker, first published in 1603. McCartney saw sheet music for "Cradle Song" at his father's home in Liverpool, left on a piano by his stepsister Ruth. Unable to read music, he created his own music. McCartney uses the first stanza of the original poem, with minor word changes,[ adding to it a single lyric line repeated with minor variation.

    Absolutely stunning voice mar! It gets better with every collab! Thank you again for letting me bring post of it. Always an honour to be able to appear with established players that clearly know what they are doing!

    Stu, I just reviewed the general mix and saved it as my DAW, if you publish from there you could evaluate the progress... I can offer to quantize and create a master mix using my software, just let me know, but I suggest you publish my daw for now. If you prefer to continue with your own mix i will respect that.

    Hi Stu, I’d be happy to help with general mix, I inly did my tracks, added several bvs and mixed them to avoid a heavy collab. You just need to mix all tracks and publish again. Let me know if I can help.

    @stubass: Here you go... I was planning to add an electric guitar and two more vox tracks, but let's give it a try first... hope you like it.

    @stubass collab is turning out awesome! For the mix I would suggest to turn down the drums a little bit.
