Tim - thank you so much, sir! I appreciate the listen and kind words!
Paul - wow, high compliment indeed! It was Ed's original concept and his words started the song out. he already had a chord structure and a piano part layed out. I changed the words some, added melody and changed the structure of the song some, but the whole concept really was Ed's.
"tears!" highest complement my friend!

Reece, your singing has improved significantly. I really like the vocals in this! You really have improved. Good job sir. There may be some Bapu magic fairy dust sprinkled too, but I was very impressed.

Nice song. Thought the bass-drum was a bit much sometimes.

Fine song though.

PhilZ!!! thanks for stopping by and listening and the absolutely 100% accurate review!  Daryl - thanks man. she was a great lady and she will be missed. Mrs. Beagle, of course, is going through a lot of stuff right now and things are kind of rough on her, but we'll make it! thanks for your thoughts! Hey Robbie - thanks for stopping by and for your great comments! I sincerely do appreciate your honesty, it's one of the things which drove me to be a better vocalist! There was no bapu fairy dust applied to the vocals. Daryl touched up a couple of spots with melodyne, but other than that, it's all me! thanks again! thanks Spacealf for your listen and comments! I'm sure bapsi will take your comments into consideration! I appreciate the listen and appreciate your appreciation!

Good collab guys.
Nice topic to write about. Don't sweat the small stuff....
Nice job on the mix and yes..... Reece, your vox have really come a long way from the early days when I first showed up in here. I know you have put a lot of work into that skill set....
Keep on writing.

Hey Herb - thanks so much for the kind words!
bapu gave me a set of lyrics and a chord structure but said he couldn't nail down a melody. I rearranged some of the lyrics and rearranged some of the chords and song structure to come up with this final version. the lyrics are really all bapu - I just put icing on them!
thanks for the compliment on my vocals! I've been working hard for several years. I have more to learn, as always, tho!

Nice job all around, everything seems to fit well in its place. And the vocals do sound good. I don't know your earlier work to compare, but this sure sounds like a confident performance to me!

I like this song. Nice vibe!
I think the main vox is a bit too loud during the harmonies. This is subjective but maybe the harmonies could be more verbed to give a more ethereal feel.
Great song. The one after is really cool as well!
