What a great tune and performance.  If I am supposed to know what the lyrics mean, I missed the boat.  HOWEVER, I know they must mean something because they are so good.  This was really a treat to listen to.   I sincerely mean that.  Love his voice!!

great composition, and a great feel.
 
it was very quiet, i assume this was not mastered?
it sounds better turned way up...
it is reminscent of gabriel on some of genesis early mellow stuff..
 
at 5:21 it is getting long, for only having 1 or 2 basic chord changes...
that said,
it has a nice reflective and calm vibe,
so it works over time.
 
i wonder if a key modulation in the entire middle section, dropping back down to the current key, for the final reprise,
wouldn't be a better choice?
 
really nice tune




Thanks Bats, that's nice of you. Not mastered no, I never do with individual tracks, just a smidge of compression on the master bus. Not sure about the modulation thing..I enjoy the song as it is, and there seem to be enough changes to keep it interesting. Hey, Pink Floyd have one chord intros longer than this song..

This is a wonderful song!  Tim's voice has the texture that sends this song over the top and delivers the lyrics so well.  Even though this song is a little quiet, as Bat says, it breathes and has good dynamics which gives this life.  Kudos to the both of you!




Thanks Lynn. Tim voice and lyrics on this song make me immensely proud to have been involved with it.

Hey James,
I really like this!  Love Tim's voice, haven't heard any in a while!  love the electric lead and the pad.  acoustic sounds really nice, too.
 
I think I agree with bat that I could have used a modulation or something to shake it up a little for the length of the song.
 
but all in all, really really nice work!




Thanks Reece!
