Good song. Good topic.
If you use a bit of reverb on the vocal track, it will help it to sit in the mix a bit better.
I enjoyed the listen.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Robert,
A very heart-felt write. Nice melody. A "believable" vocal - you sing it like you mean it.
I agree with Herb that more reverb on the vocal would let it sit in the mix a little more...

What a great song. While I don't know what you went through, I do feel from every aspect a small piece of it. That's hard to do and you did it so well!
God's healing is powerful.
Thank you for sharing such a personal song!

Thanks so much, Kat my wife did more going through than I did, but we are both very thankful for the way we've been blessed through it.

Hi Rob,
I really enjoyed that song. Heartfelt lyrics and vocal. I especially liked how you went to the minor chord in the chorus. You don't hear that in todays music and I for one, can appreciate it.
Nice job. I like the tracks you used.
Jeff

Thanks for the feedback Jeff. I'm a sucker for using minor chords to evoke a feeling or atmosphere. Glad you noticed.

Very nicely done!! As Herb said, a little verb would smooth out the vocal and make it sit better. The song and vocal performance are heartfelt and very moving. Very much enjoyed! Keep posting! Take care. Greg

Thanks for the listen and feedback Greg. I agree with the Reverb that you and others mentioned. I'll address that issue if and when I get ready to do a final mix.
