I've always been a sucker for a sad song! Nicely done! One question, you mention Video: Adobe Firefly, iMovie & Final Cut Pro and I was kinda thinking like a video story but I only saw waving grass and song title all the way through is that right. I always thought the AI video made full on videos to fit the story . . . ? Doesn't matter really still a good song!

Sawmill,
Thanks - we appreciate the kind words.
To answer your question, I've been using YouTube as a way to bring something visual to the music. Hopefully, the song itself will tell the story. The video images I build are meant to support the feel & emotion. Sometimes they are more elaborate and other times a bit simpler - depends on the song. The combination of those 3 tools enables my workflow. They all do things a little different, but have very unique features. YouTube also allows Joliz and I to expand our audience outside of SoundCloud.
Thanks again!
Bob

Hi Joliz and Bob,
I thought, let me just switch the names around here. Ladies first!
I saw that I had missed this song! I think that’s because you released so many songs, while I was still practicing a new song of my own... I can't keep up with your pace.
Anyway, let's talk about your song. And its quality!
I think it's a very catchy song. You get the feeling that, before you know it, everyone is singing along to their heart's content.
I think this must be due to Joliz. She sings her backing vocals so nicely and catchily, you just *have* to sing along!
But the most important thing is that it is a beautiful song, beautifully written and with a "lovely" rhythm. And that is Bob, who did that!
I really enjoyed it,
Hans

The Izotope vinyl processing 1960’s format definitely added to vibe.
It was as though we were sitting in a living room with y’all performing there for a small gathering.
Your D-18 !!!
We love the way you two sound together on the “and worst of all I can’t watch you walk away” lines .
You can just feel the sadness in your combined voices there as yours has some fragility.
Love the grass blowing in the wind in the video.
No more needed.
Enjoyed it!
