Peter

Nice rich guitar work, interesting bass line, and fascinating lyrics. "Tie balloons to my regrets, and watch them sail into the blue"

The build to the chorus gave great dimension.

Good job all around for sure.

Yep, that is a great line: "Tie balloons to my regrets, and watch them sail into the blue"
Not only does it make a good statement but the imagery is vivid and immediate.

The production sounds really good on our monitors with everything sitting in
a good place.

We enjoyed this fine write and the vocalist interprets it very well.

Thanks for posting.

Peter/Leon,

Well done story song. Comfortable. A song that reveal more the more you listen...

Had a feel like something off "Blood On The Tracks"... that's impressive..

Beautifully done Peter!! I love thoughtful, reflective, meditative songs like this. There are elements of Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, and others of that wonderful era. This is really a captivating listen. Awesome!! Merry XMAS! Greg
