Hi Dani, First of all... Congratulations! And... what a beautiful song! This kind of music is the right music for your voice. The backing vocals are also very nice, is that HER? Go on making this kind of music. Rob and Anne-Marie

Really beautiful song!! Great emotion, sweet music. I think the Bacharach style suits you very well. Your style definitely reminds me of his. I was always a big fan. This is certainly one of my Dani favorites. Post to your heart's content-I never get tired of listening! Take care. Greg

One of your best yet Dani, if not the best. Like others have said, this style fits you so well. I like your instrumentation on this one as well as the nice chord progression. And, as always, your vocals are spot on. It was a joy to listen to this one. Looking forward for another soon. Glad you are back and posting again.

Hi Dani!
Thanks for honoring my request for more music after your sailing adventure!
I am so glad to hear that you have found love again! I know the deep dark place you were in for such a long time, and it must be a great relief to be out of that pit.
I agree with other peoples' comment that the Burt Bacharach style is a good fit for you. The song is very nice and does a good job of expressing a wide range of emotions. My only observation is as follows:
Drawing the listeners mood from one very deeply felt negative emotion to a new deeply felt positive emotion within the span of a few minutes asks an awful lot of the listener's willingness to concentrate and really consider what you are saying. The willingness to project themselves into your emotion strongly affects how much they can be moved by the song.
Considering the possible ways to draw a listener in, I was reminded of a device that was used in the Wizard of Oz. Before Dorothy got to Oz, the film was in black and white... but in Oz, it was in technicolor! This simple change in video format implied differences very quickly and easily which would have taken many words to duplicate.
In a 3 minute song, there is no time to lyrically develop the idea that life is better in the 2nd half of the song. Taking the Wizard of Oz video idea and modifying it for audio, you could accomplish it very easily by making the first half of the song less decorated and very sparsely orchestrated. Then, when love appears, break out the violins and full blown orchestration!
But, I'm just rambling here, because being in the same situation as you, I have spent quite a bit of time thinking about how I would pursue a song like this. It's not the easiest kind of song to write, but you did it very well! I got sucked right into the vortex of the tornado. ;-)
Dani, your song provides hope for me too! Thanks!

Dani, You sure have a handle on this style. But that doesn't mean you should stop experimenting. It is so easy do with BIAB. You sing this one very well. Great BG vocals. Nice job. Tom

Hi, Pat !
I did not know that you were in the same boat with me but now that I do, I sure hope that you will manage to steer the boat to the shore bringing the journey to a satisfying end !
Regarding the song, I fully agree with everything you said about it ! I should have had a more significant change of orchestration where the good part begins ! I will keep that lesson in mind lest I should write a sequel ?
Brother Pat ! Take care and may everything go well with you !
Cheers Dani

Hi, Floyd !:))
LOL, thank you Floyd for your most kind words ! I guess love and longing are among the strongest emotions driving songwriting and performing ? I am glad if I have been able to express those feelings in a convincing way to at least a small extent ?
Cheers Dani
