Enjoyed the starborn lyrics with profound storytelling through time and the universe.
What a great band, the guitar playing is stellar, Marty's bassline fits perfectly to the trippy theme. The organ and the drums ensure Blue Attitude's signature sound.
The vocal effect slightly distances the vocals from the band, same happens with the lead guitar in the end, paid attention to those on first listenings, but now I feel they nicely "expand the space".
Quality blues to Black Weekend, "making light shine".
Janne Appreciate that, Janne! Love your new profile pic BTW.

Man, I can't tell ya how cool it is to play with my favorite guitarist and favorite singer. Thanks to all who mentioned my contribution. Yes, Dave, I like the Reverbnation mix better. Too bad YT won't let us swap out the music. As always, thanks for all you do, Marty

(listening to the new mix. Not reading the comments of others.)
Love this band!
Chris writes amazing BluesRock lyrics. And sings them SO well. Style, class, passion.
Marty's Bass is BluesRockSolid. Of course.
Soulful guitar! Great feeling. (A bit different tone than usual).
Good mix. Drums have a different sound than your typical. (I prefer the old sound)
Great Original Music.
So So Good. A listening Pleasure.

Slinky and mysterious. Ace mixing. All three musicians are grooving in tandem. Delicious!

fj Hey floyd, I added the clipper section of neutron 5 to the drums, I'm guessing that's what you are hearing. I kinda like it myself, gives them a little extra punch, but maybe I overdid it  Thanks for the support and have a great Christmas!

Wow ... that is so much goodness packed in 3:38 minutes!
Love this: “We were born of stars, but here we are, Walking through the fire, Walking that far We'll find our way One step at a time We are two Souls in the dark making light shine”
The complete package: everything fits like a glove in an excellent mix. And we like the new mix and how the organ and drums/percussion and vocals sound. It has that hard to define extra pop. But you know it when you hear it.
All three of you are shining here - big time.
Nice supporting video also.
Loved it!

J&B From the first time I worked with Chris, more than 10 years ago now, I was impressed by her lyrics, certainly not your typical blues lyric!  Really appreciate that Janice and Bud, you guys are the best in my book.

Dave, Marty and Chris,
This is such a smooth sounding blues-rock track! All 3 of you are giving a totally pro effort here! Dave, I'm always blown away with your tone and performance....so good! Marty's bass track here is as good or better than any realtrack you could have put in. And what more can I say about Chris than I always do! She's always spot on with the vocal work and fits your teams sound so well!
Congrats on another stellar tune that sits right at the top of anything posted here!
Take care, TB

Excellent tune Dave. I listened to both versions and the new one on Reverbnation has a really nice openness and definition. Really cool groove to this tune. Super vocal from Chris and Marty's bassline gave the song such a cool feel. Guitar work was excellent as well.
