Very cool. It has a certain Neil Young feel to it in the quality of the vocals as well as the music. Especially reminiscent of his early stuff with Crazy Horse.
Nice one.

Ah, a fun relaxing song so well done. Cool change at 1:16 and later. Really good song. Love the BGVs, and your vocal is just perfect. Excellent choice of instruments. That synth was a big plus --subtle, but so effective.

I like the folk sound with a bit of Beatles influenced harmonies. Good vocal. Pleasant melody.

Brian,
First off, really like the feel and sound you’ve given this with the percussion . . . really fits the song. Nice vocal . . . would have liked to read the lyrics, though they are pretty clear within the song. Excellent BGV harmonies—Beatles like. Actually, a lot of this reminds me of a Beatles tune, something Lennon might do. Cool strings as well. Like this one a lot! Excellent work!

Geez, this sounds like a Neil Young deep track. Very masterful composition and performance. Love the BGVs as they float "Home" out of the key and then back again. First class all the way!

A great vocal and overall mix. And I love that bass!!
Great job.

Very good song to start out the new year. I agree, it does have quite a Beatles sound to it - yet still original. Great mix, Brian.

Really enjoyed listening to this. It's the kind of song I can imagine Neil Young singing.
Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

Hi Brian,
Wonderful song and vocals, lovely melody and interesting chord progression!
I had the same feeling as others here; Neil Young with an early Beatle-Background choir.
I liked it all a lot.
Very well done on the acoustic!
