Short but sweet. We liked the sparse arrangement. Really
pretty piano and great tone.
It would make a wonderful video.
We much enjoyed the listen!

Thank you so much. Yeh a video would fit well but I would need permission from the lady in question 1st as she should be in the video. We intend to SKYPE this weekend so she will soon hear it for the 1st time. *gulp* laugh

I'm glad (I think) that this worked out for you with her....
I'm reminded of the country song "Thank God for unanswered prayers"....

Wow that's a song and I too see the resemblance in the lyrics, thanks for the link. I enjoyed that song!!
I am not thinking of anything past the moments we meet.... just as long as we stay friends now!

Alyn,
Very pleasant song. I particularly like the loops in the background. Sets a nice mood.

Just this time I'm going to disagree with Greg (who's opinion I respect and usually share) and say that I think it works well with just the straightforward piano. I think strings might make it just a bit too sentimental.

Will there be a sequel?

Lovely Alyn,

SD,

That "loop" was in the pad from the Korg M1 VSTi; a sort of windchimey effect.
Thanks for listening

Josie

Thank you, Glad you enjoyed the song

I really like the intimate space you've created with your arrangement. I think it suits your vocal perfectly. You don't sound like Tom Waits but you have created a Waits vibe to me.

Well done!

As J&B said, short and sweet.

Literally, and in the best possible way.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

I love this Alyn, nothing is coming as a surprise from you any more as your have shown that you can write songs in so many different styles.

Piano sounds great on song, and excellent vocal.

All the best

Hi Alyn
Love this one. Loved the harmonies. Did you sing them yourself? As the others have said. I enjoyed the arrangement. I am sitting on the verander I had to check whether the birds were signing inside or outside of my head.

Thank you for that, BIAB plays a good part in the realisation of the style changes, but my musical upbringing was varied to begin with.
Or maybe its my brain 'cos I see your "forum-name" as musi-clover. crazy

Yeh all vocals are me, I have never had quests on my songs apart from my cat miaowing on one, years back!!

That is nice imagery as I look at the rain pouring down outside.

Hi Alyn,

This is a terrific write. There are no better songwriting tools than Honesty and Sincerity and they ring loud and clear in these lyrics.

It's also a great piano Realtrack and I thought it was excellent match for the style of song.

A wonderful presentation!

All the best,
Noel
