LOVE THIS, Jona. Excellent lyrics with a subtely soaring melody. The vocal is so good. Is it double-tracked? Nice build to the song, too. Man, there is a lot of life in those lyrics. Interesting chord changes that fit so well. I hear a lot of different instruments, and you mix them in and out so appropriately. What a wonderful production.

Hi Marty!
I tried to be carefull with words because english is not my nativelanquage.
Glad to hear if i have managed write some succesful words!
1 and second verse there is only 1 vocal track but in other places yes it’s doupletrack vocal.
I had some help in mixing from my friend Fabio. 50/50 mixing with him and he also has final mastering on the song.
I have big problems now with my biab 2020 Windows. First the drag and drop system just like that stopped to work and now my songs has disappeared. I have had 40 email with PG music support but nothing seems to help

Hi.Jona,
This is very nice. The lyric is powerful and your vocal presentation is excellent. Your vocal reminds of the great Russian arranger and producer, Leonid Vorobyev. I listen to his music often (Leonid and Friends is the band name).
You've selected the perfect backing tracks and have arranged them quite nicely. This is a great listen!
Happy New Year
Alan

Hi, Jona. Yes, you did a great job with the lyric, a doubly so considering English isn't your native language. I love the backing track, and the modulation in the middle works very well. The find result is very good.  I hope you get your computer issues resolve quickly!

But thanks for encouraging Alan!

Jona, gorgeous song, cunningly produced and beautifully sung. Love the backing tracks and arrangement. Very cool how you got the two guitars to interplay like that.
You get an A+ in English for my class!!

Built around a very characterful voice & it works really well.
The narrative is pretty good but the reference to God spoilt it for me. This is partly because the story is strong & good enough to carry on without the reference and partly because the reference is a bit iffy when talking of peace & war.
BUT, as I said a good story, an coooool voice and a band built to carry both very well.
Cheers

Jona,
The track sounds great to me! It has a very "House Of The Rising Sun " feel to it kind of melancholy and bluesy! Excellent job!
Thanks, TB
