A little thing I've been working on for several years  , and just rediscovered. I've lost the original BB file, so I have no memo. It's long, so if you're not buying any green bananas these days, you might want to skip it.  Thanks for listening, and Merry Christmas! Regards, Bob https://90dbband.bandcamp.com/track/little-candle

Wow. I don't think you can write a song I don't love. This is another really good one.
Enjoyed my listen.

Another good one.
I like the laid back feeling. Sad story.

Absolutely beautiful Bob!! I've never heard anything by you that I didn't like, but I've never heard anything I loved this much. It's great. The simple arrangement is perfect, and the rhythm infectious. Lyrics are wonderful-melancholy and inspirational at the same time. And, I doubt anyone could sing it any better. Incredible stuff!! And this is a great investment of 4 minutes-something this good deserves attention. Awesome! Take care. Greg

What a beautiful arrangement. I was hoping for a happy ending but it's a wonderful sounding tragic tale.

What a sad story, with beautifully crafted lyrics.
Excellent but it didn't seem so long as it held my attention.

Subtle, in the pocket, cinematic. Gorgeous, sing-able melody. Sounds like a classic the first time you hear it. The production is outstanding. Your best, I think. Everything about this is first rate. You can go fishing now. floyd

Bob, Good thing you didn't give up on it. A beautiful and exquisite write and arrangement. The strings sound fantastic. Your voice sounds fantastic. Has a little of that Gordon Lightfoot feel to it, which is always a good thing. All in all a gorgeous song. Bravo! Tom

This is a great song although very sad. Everything that you did is just superb. Your writing is fantastic and the story is so realistic that it was like watching a movie in my mind. I would like to have known what you did in BIAB for the music is very captivating. Very enjoyable!

Hi Bob.
It didn't seem a minute too long to me. (I've worked with Eddie.)
Beautiful song and sung with lots of emotion which brought me out in goosebumps. Like Josie, I was hoping for a happy ending, but...eh bien.
Going back for a second listen when I've found the Kleenex.
Have a good xmas.
ROG.

Charlie - Thanks for the listen and the kind remarks. Herb - Thanks. Appreciate the listen. Greg - Thanks. This is probably the longest song I've ever written. I just got carried away. The one I'm working on now comes in at 2:08, so I'm trying to make ammends. Trevor - Thanks for the kind words. Josie - Thanks. I'm a sucker for a tragic story. Alyn - Thanks for listening. Appreciate the nice comments. Lambada - Thanks for listening and the nice remarks. fj - Thanks. We're fixin' to go get some French grunts right now. Merry Christmas! Regards, Bob

So nice! I enjoyed every second of it. You've got a Jimmy Nail sort of vibe going with this song.

I found this piece stunning Bob. A perfect match of lyrics, music, production and top notch vocal delivery: I wish I could get that level of emotion and sincerity. When things all come together like this a song goes straight to the heart.
