Thanks to all who've said my bass was fine, and I'm surprised it is even noticed through all the goodies in this song. Just wanted to add that Dave also made a great video for this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWZS3p8zNng

Hi Dave, Kate, Chris and Marty,
A wonderful/sad song and a brilliant chorus. It's still resonating in my head!
Beautiful lyrics and sung so nice.
I listened to the song, then saw the video and it was so good!
I didn't know your wife was a writer, Dave. and a good one.
I think I need to have a serious talk with my wife
Possibly she 'takes up the glove' and write me a lyric too.
If not, maybe I then have enough inspiration for one myself...
But, beside the dull bass, the song is very, very pleasant to liten to.
Hans

Blue Attitude + Kathy,
Excellent teamwork! Very well rounded and powerful tune. Did not hear previous version, but this sounds great.
Super guitars with signature solo. Electric vocals by Chris. Marty A+ bass and BGV. Congrats!
Misha.

Hello Kathy, Chris, Dave and Marty.
Excellent collaboration
A song that convinces from the beginning
Very good lyrics and vocals
Great guitar and bass work
Extremely good artwork
Full score !
Many greetings
Andi ;-) Thanks for the listen and comments, Andi! Kathy wrote a very powerful lyric.
Chris’s soulful vocal was perfect.
Speaking of soul, what a beautiful melody and exquisite guitar performance by you. Marty’s bass is as always attentive to and supportive of what's going on at the moment in the mix.
Yours and Marty’s harmonies really shine on this too.
Great soundstage ... so good thru our monitors (newish ones with an 8" sub).
Excellent!
J&B
Thanks guys, and thanks for the comment over on FB as well, very much appreciated! Kudos to Kathy for the write. Nice.
Chris does her usual stellar job on vocals.
Marty's bass is gorgeous, as always.
The always-perfect Dave guitar work!
Drums sound really good. Mix is excellent.
Strong in all regards.
fj Thanks very much, floyd, for all your support over the years, it means a lot

Dave
This is really good. Everything comes together beautifully.
Great guitars, vocals, bass lyrics and drum programming.
Wonderful song!
Peter Thanks, Peter! That is one sad guitar. Fits the (well-written) song perfectly. Excellent production all-round. Appreciate that, thanks! A full serving of blues rock balladry with a side of excellent harmony vocals.
The bass is all the carbs needed and the lead ads the chilli to spice up the smooooth vocal.
Terrific lyrics too. Thanks for stopping by, Ray!

I'm a big fan of your guitar work: it complements the song and doesn't overpower--just the right seasoning, so to speak. Chris's vocal is superb. BGV sound good too.

Hi Dave,
This a winner:
- Great vocals at the perfect level. There are a lot of words in the verses and she handles this very well.
- Superb Choruses.
- Excellent guitar work - I would love to hear it a bit louder and shorter reverb to match the vocals.
- Good mix.
Great work Dave - one of your best.
Best Regards
Nigel Great feedback, Nigel, thanks! I took your advice and bumped the guitar up 2 db and also set the reverb to be identical to the vocal. Dave, Kathy & Chris,
This song has such a fresh feel, but with a great amount of edginess and tension from within the arrangement.
Loved it!
Bob Thanks, Bob! Awesome song. Super vocal from Chris and excellent harmonies. Guitar was perfect for the tune as was Marty's bass lines. Well done What Marty is doing underneath the solo make me smile every time I hear it, perfect part. Thanks, Scott!

it took a crowd to make this song, a nice collaboration and a nice video. I like the vocal and the guitar and the mix.

Rob and Anne-Marie Thanks Rob and Anne-Marie! Kathy's lyrics + Marty's bass + Dave's leads +Chris's outstanding vocal = one outstanding masterpiece of music.
Great mix also
Loved it

Hi Hans, Well, she has written a grand total of two sets of lyrics so far. I'm hoping she will do more, because writing is something I'm pretty much hopeless at. I'm happy you liked the song, and I know that you are making a joke about Marty's bass playing

Misha. The original mix was very similar, Misha, I just made a very slight tweak. Thanks for the listen and comments! Dave & Blue Attitude,
An excellent write so beautifully sung, and the band is simply one of the best I`ve heard anywhere.
Loved this!
Robert Those kind of comments make my day, thanks, Robert! I'm a big fan of your guitar work: it complements the song and doesn't overpower--just the right seasoning, so to speak. Chris's vocal is superb. BGV sound good too. That's the ultimate compliment for a guitarist I think, thanks so much!
