That was cool Steve. Melodious ballad beginning, nice piano sound, kinda different from the Grand Piano. 
Cool transition to rock guitar and nice repetitive phrases which kept me hooked on to the track till the end...

 
Thanks, Ramesh!  I'm glad you liked it.   The leading piano is Lounge Lizard (E piano) from AAS.

Thanks, Makke!  I really appreciate that.

always a pleasure to hear a new one from you
the tune itself is top-notch although for some reason it reminds me of 80s US TV show theme...
i'm getting terrible thump from the bass/piano on my system,which as nobody else has highlighted i'm assuming is my room!
edit- is better on phones but still the (open E?) bass note from aroudn 0'58 is a little overpowering
once the solo kicks in opens up in a great way
mix is a little mid-heavy overall but nothing major. cool stuff

 
Thanks, Mark!   I originally wrote in the mid-90's so you actually may not be that far off.        I did wack the low E on the bass a little so that could be part of what you're hearing.   I'll have to re-listen...
 

Just had a second listen, and it sounded even better... great mix too.

Beautiful!!  Well done!

Steve,
I'm sorry I hadn't listened to your music before but after listening to that one I'll be SURE to come through more often.
Beautiful song and played with a lot of heart.
Soothing yet powerful. 
Nice work.

Nice one Steve.   Your arrangement and performance is really spot on:)   Had a couple listens through, good stuff. 
 
 
Regards

Hi Steve,
 
I actually saw this a couple of days ago when I swung over to your SoundCloud page to see if you'd created any new tunes. For some reason I didn't spot your post here (it may have been on page 2...)
 
Lovely song this Steve. Such a grand piece. Some great guitar solo work in there too. 
 
Production is up there with your best and which is what I have come to expect since I have been following your work.
 
cheers

Steve, just came across this. What can I say. EPIC!

Yes, I think EPIC is the right word. A beautiful gift for your wife. May you both enjoy it for many years to come.
 
I will add that I also love the AAS Lounge Lizard, and almost every song I do has (at least) one track that uses it. It may be my favorite VST instrument ever.

Great job on this. It builds nicely and the guitars remind me of Trans Siberian Orchestra. Loved it from beginning to end!

Very emotional tune Steve.  Great guitar tone and nice chops!  I wanted to hear the song take off in a weird direction about 2/3 of the way through, but that's just me.  Maybe think about keeping the melody centered.
Great background instrument choices.  Keep up the good work!
