A lot of people asked me to remix this and bring up the vocals, so I did.

Thanks for all the careful listening and feedback.!!

My final solution was to mix it on a pair of really, really cheap speakers. If it sounds good on cheap speakers, it will sound good anywhere, I am told by master engineers.

That sounds a lot better volume-wise, David.

I enjoyed listening again.

I think it would sound good with a little more reverb and some delay - it's the kind of song/vocal that would support that nicely.

Again...cool song!

David, Nice write and I really like the Lennon like vocal. Great piano work and the choice of Real Tracks is spot on. The mix sounds good. Very enjoyable, Tom

A great feel and flow to this. I like it a lot, I understand it's a remix but I wish I had the lyrics to read. Great vocal.

Did not hear the original. Glad I caught this one!! Very cool song. Very meditative. I agree with most of what's been said. It is very Lennon-esque and I do think the vocal could float a bit more because of that vibe. I really like the lyrics-natural and stream of consciousness. The melody is simple and repeats a lot but it doesn't get old-it just draws you in, like Knockin' on Heaven's door or something. Really liked it a lot!! Take care. Greg

HI David ...

Really sweet and pretty. Di and I both agree ... your vocal sounds like a mix of Lennon and Dylan. That's not a bad thing!

A touch more reverb on the vocal would be nice. I'm not real big on too much reverb, but I think this particular sing would sound great with it ... would put the sound more firmly in the style of that era. we also loved the percussion accents .. really sweet!

Thanks for a super cool listen!
