Loved it and IMHO this is your best to date.

Mario, you flatterer, you! 🙄 Thank you so much for the kind words. 🎀 Hearing that it brought back happy memories means the world to me. Maybe we should start a "Good Ol' Days Appreciation Society" – I'll bring the sepia-toned photos and you bring the stories.😀 I'm thrilled you think it's my best, though now I'm terrified of writing anything else in case it's all downhill from here! ☹ Thanks again for taking the time to listen and comment; it always very sincerly really means a lot.👍
Always my Best Regards to you
Izzy.

Finally got hear this on SC. Really nice song and I like the piano intro and outro.


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.

Our fav of many great lines:

"The mailbox tilts like it’s waving hello
The garden is wild but it still tries to grow
The paint may fade but the memories shine
That house will always be a home of mine"

This is a beautiful song and vocals.
We can hear your longing and the piano so well supports the imagery of children playing up and down attic stairs.
Janice said the outro sounds like she feels when driving down the street from her childhood home.
"That house will always be a home of mine"

No need to parse things out ... it's done well in all aspects of a production.

And we enjoyed it!

Dear Janice and Bud,

Well, you've officially made my day (and possibly my week!). 😍

Hearing that "That house will always be a home of mine" resonated with you both – and especially Janice's drive down memory lane feeling – means the world. It's exactly what I was hoping to capture.

I'm so glad the piano painted that attic staircase scene for you. I pictured it while writing and hoped it would translate! 🎹🌷

"No need to parse things out..." is the best review I could have hoped for. As you both know there is nothing a songwriter likes more that knowing the song hit the mark. 🎜 ♫ ♬

Thank you both for taking the time to listen and for your incredibly kind words. 💗 Knowing you enjoyed it gives me a huge boost!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go dust off those attic stairs... maybe I'll find another song up there. 💒 😊

Warmly,

Izzy

Izzy,

Love the sound and feel of this one. So relatable. You have a great voice that really put the lyrics across. Awesome selection of instruments and mix as well.

Excellent!

Hi Bob

Thanks so much! Glad the song resonated. Maybe it's too relatable... I'm starting to think I should trademark my misery! wink Seriously though, appreciate the detailed feedback on the voice, instruments, and mix. Means a lot!

always my best to you

Izzy

This was great, Iz! On some of those high raspy notes, you sounded a bit like Don Henley to me. Great piano and singing.
