Hi Bob
What a great production. Really professional all round. Loved the song. One thousand mornings sounds so much more poetic than three years.

Hi
Really like the way you bring the percussion in with the chorus, that's a nice touch

Hi, Bob !
I liked the song, the lyrics and the whole production !
To me those words 1000 mornings have a special meaning
as I am now closing in on that amount of days since my
dear wife Beni died ! Your lyrics are outright superb Bob !
Cheers
Dani

I like it. as others have mentioned, the title is good. While I do like the lyrics and the way you wrote them I still don't know what the song is about.
The first part of V1 is kind of dark and foreboding then the last line about feet not touching the floor is really confusing me.
Who is gone? Where did they go? Why did they go? Are they coming back? And some other unanswered questions exist for this tune. Inquiring minds want to know.
Just some things to think about on the next tune you write.

Bob,
The simplicity of the production works nicely. When the bongo-conga stops during the 2nd verse the hole it leaves is a bit distracting. It would be nice if you picked out a single, softer conga hit and pasted it in... on 2 and 4 or maybe just on 3...

Herb, Thanks - appreciate the listen and feedback. I guess the only way I can answer those questions is to say that the song is open to interpretation... Bob

Hi Bob, What a great hook! I have to say that the musical road you drove me along was alive with scenery and visualised poetry. The way you take words and use them to paint lyrics from the impressionistic gallery of songwriting is what I always admire most in your songs. As I've said before, it's a skill I don't have; my feet are firmly planted in the realism gallery. For me, listening to your lyrics is like looking at an abstract painting - I often have no idea what the painting is about but that's irrelevant. The mystery of the artwork fascinates and there's wonder and beauty that mesmerises. I enjoyed the ride. Thank you Noel

As others said 1000 mornings is a "great hook!" "No victory in winning" is worth a song by itself. I really enjoyed this.
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.

Hi Bob,
This is a fantastic song. I really like the lyrics and your vocal in this one. Your instrumentation and mixing is top shelf here.
Two thumbs up.
Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

Hey, no problem. I was simply making observations.
As a songwriter, these are questions I am often asked by others who are reviewing my tunes, because I still have a long way to go as a writer. But I do try to think about my lyrics from an outsider's POV.
The main thing is to keep writing and try to think about lyrics from the listener's POV..... you obviously know what something you write means but that doesn't mean anyone else does. The best songs tend to fill in those blanks for the listener.
Just some thoughts about lyric writing....
