Hi Robert.

This is a beautiful and captivating track.

The arrangement is perfect and the recording and mix are quite professional.

For me though, the icing on the cake is your vocal delivery. So full of emotion and conviction - this has to be the best I've heard you sing. It brought me out in goosebumps at times.

Finally, I'm so full of admiration for anyone who can write a waltz. I've never managed to get one to work and this one of yours is just so good.

Good to have you posting again.

All the best, ROG.

Great song PG,

The simple backing at the start not a lot of instruments crowding in actually give me a start and made me sit up and take notice, in other words listen to the song, very effective arrangement on your part.

No one can do your style of music like you do.

An enjoyable listen.

Really pretty song Robert!! The sparse arrangement and heartfelt vocal work perfectly. I would consider adding just a little reverb to the vocal just for a feeling of space. Really nice song! Take care. Greg

The song - and your voice - project gentle assurance.

Well done.

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

Hi Robert,

Beautiful song, melody is really good.
We agree with Greg about a little reverb to the vocals.
Good job!

Nice song indeed... The subtle delay on your vocal really widens the mix and is tastefully done. Hope to hear more as I find my way around this wonderful little corner of the net. Thanks for sharing this song! Dan.

Beautiful song, Robert.

As others have mentioned, your vocal on this is very nice - I'd say "peacefully powerful".

Each of the instruments are very nicely presented. The acoustic guitars sound great! The drums sound great. The bass sounds great. Good mix.

A very enjoyable listen. Well done.

Robert,

This is stunning. You had me mesmerised from start to finish. In a phrase, "songwriting and song-performing at their most powerful".

Regards,
Noel
