Nice sound, evocative lyrics and good singing. I like the spareness of the sound, and the percussion in the back.
Your songs make me think of poems set to music (in a good way), and this arrangement works really well with this song.

This is pretty cool. I found myself letting it play in the background while I did some other stuff, just simple easy to listen to, no pretension. Smooth and pleasant. to offer critique, I would not have used so much time between lines and you are certainly no vocalist, but hey, neither was Dylan, it's not a major problem in this style of music which I think you pulled off very nicely. Fun!

Like floyd alluded to
"And if time could sing
It would have whispered in stereo"
really nailed it for us.
And, man, do we enjoy your
stripped down, no meat left on
the bone, productions. They
are incredibly effective and have
definitely influenced our approach
of late.
Great sound on your vocal also.
Got this on our itunes "internet radio"
play list!

Bob,
I really enjoyed this song. The sparse production as others have commented was perfect and your vocals had plenty of room to fill out the mix. Great lyrics too. Excellent job, thanks for sharing.

Hey Bob, As your duo partner, call me partial but I've always known what a great vocal stylist you are and I'm always glad to hear others also perking up their ears on that point.  This song and your last one as well have a great Folk Coffee House sound - like I'm right there with you sitting in the back shadows taking it all in. Josie
