I love this tune! I'm now one of your followers and I'm so happy I'll get to hear this song many times. 
 
My grandpa was a Scottish fiddler (who used to order one or the other of his six children to "chord along" with him on the piano and rebuke them for every misplaced chord) and this brought back wonderful memories to me of sitting in their living room with all the relatives, and singing along or just listening together.
 
Everything "fits" in this song just right - the song sounds like it's always been here. That's something I'd love to accomplish in my own songwriting some day.
 
The melody is just lovely, and when you came in with the chorus in sweet harmony near the end, it almost brought me to tears.

I can tell you are very musical and talented. Great song!

Hey, Scotty,
 
Great to see you on the forum!
 
Excellent job on this beautiful piece of homespun Americana!
 
It's always a true pleasure to hear your phenomenal fiddle work, and this is a full, rich sounding pro mix that sounds perfect for a classic waltz.
 
Dynamite stuff, brother, and I hope your father-in-law is doing much better after his accident and surgery!
 
Have a great week, Scott!

Loved the melodies and phrasing...  Great pitch too.  It all sounds "just right".   For me your playing comes across as having a great level of control, something I very much appreciate.   
 
The only real question I have is why are you playing percussion and wearing a mambo shirt? 

Hi Steve! Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked the tune. I try to exercise control when I play. As for the sig pic, it's something a photoshoppery expert did b placing my head on that body. 😄

Thanks Rimshot!

Thanks Markybro!

This is definitely a nice pleasant, pleasing composition.  It has some impressive playing in it also!
I bet that your friends were very appreciative that you wrote and recorded this song for them.

Thank you Freddy! They were very pleased. As I played the cd for them, she sat with a huge smile on her face and he cried most of the way through it.

Boy that sure hangs together well. I like how the bass was present yet controlled, the supporting piano and acoustic guitar? autoharp?  were both there as a foundation for that _amazing_ violin performance.
 
I think your lower piano note and the bass were 100% in unison the whole time. Very nicely done!!!
 
At 3:42 / 3:43 you might check one of your acoustic guitar strums, just a tad off maybe? Something comes in a bit early. Or, let it go, no one will care :)  that's how completely awesome your song is.
 
The ritard at the ending shows you really know your stuff. 
 
cheers,

Lovely tune and masterfully played.

Great music as always Scotty. You have this talent of making your Violin/Fiddle sounding like someone whistling with authority! Always like hearing your music man. 
 
Thanks for sharing!
