Thank you Greg for this wonderful song.
Beautifully done and very easy to relate to.
The touching introduction adds great depth to the song also. Cheers.
Thanks Rich Mac! I really appreciate your kind words, and your depth of understanding as a lyricist and commenter. Take care. Greg

Awesome man.
I don't know what else to say. Great lyrics, great song, great feeling, great emotion, great everything.
I salute.
You might want to post the lyrics on Soundcloud. They're awesome. Thanks for all that David! We all like to see the word "great". Not sure I'm deserving but I sure appreciate it. You've been killing it lately. Lot of GREAT stuff! Take care. Greg

Greg,
First our true condoleances with your dad.
You definitely honoured him with this beautiful production.
One of your best we think. Thanks R and AM! I really appreciate your kind words and support. You guys just keep delivering quality material! Take care. Greg

Hello, Greg
As Tom said, this song is a wonderful tribute to your father.
I think it is pretty difficult to tell the story of your own family to others.
But the melody and the lyrics eloquently tell us your deep feelings.
Thank you so much for this beautiful song.
Best Regards.
Shigeki Adachi
Thanks Shigeki. Your kind words mean a lot to me. I'm really glad you've become such a great contributor on the forum. Take care. Greg

Outstanding!
The lyrics are so very thoughtful and well put together. Knowing the backstory to the song really makes the impact of the words hit the heart of the listener.
The simplicity of the piano and cello backing tracks adds to the beauty of this song. So well done.
Loss of a parent is hard. You have my condolences. My mom left us in February 2 years ago well into her 90's.... and I still think I should pick up the phone every now and then to call.....then I remember....
A very fitting song Greg. I know he would be proud. Thanks Herb! You have been such a thoughtful and consistent supporter of my music, and I am very grateful. It has been HUGE for me! Take care. Greg

The first time we listened we were both left speechless...what is there left to say?
There are no single lines or even verses to quote for us as they are all simply
perfectly written. So sad but still so accessible with a vocal and lyric that should
be heard by MANY. I'd consider letting this one be downloadable from SC as
there are many people for whom the song would be so meaningful.
Even if the lyric were not a wonderful tribute the vocal and melody alone are
in our opinion among your best, And your best runs all the way
through your catalog.
We are sure he will live on in the hearts and minds of many, many people.
J&B
Thank J and B!! You guys have been a great source of inspiration for me. I have never made a song downloadable-I'll have to look into it. It has been great to have your positive feedback, and Janice did an incredible job on Sincerity-what a voice!! Thanks for everything! Take care. Greg

Not much to add from what the posters above stated. Great song and performance. I do hear the Newman changes. Very effective. Lost my father five years ago. He shows up in my dreams from time to time. Thanks so much Fred! My dad shows up in my dreams too, and he seems to be doing OK but I know at the time that he is terminal. It is very strange. Enjoying your year-long adventure of songs! Take care. Greg

Thanks so much for sharing this, I know that you reached deep inside yourself and this is so soulful and such a fine tribute. Beautiful arrangement, delivered so well vocally, it's very emotional and touching, and powerful.
Kenny Thanks so much Kenny. Yeah, this is a song that hurts to write but feels a need to come out. Really appreciate your kind words and support in general. Take care. Greg

Greg, this is a very good song. I don't know if you have this on an album/cd project or not but I envision this as a perfect last song on an album. I begs for reflection and serious thought about where someone is in their life. You did an excellent job putting it together and the more simplified ensemble of piano, strings and voice is just what it needs and nothing more. Thanks for your work! Thanks Torrey! I really enjoy having you on the forum. Your songs are just so damn pleasant and listenable-a real treat! Take care. Greg

Hi Greg,
There are songs that do not need extra bells and whistles, just a sincere lyrical story sung by a good singer who is emotionally connected to it, and you have this magic. This is such a song.
Paddy G
THanks Paddy! It's been a real treat having you on the forum. You have a nice heartfelt and philosophical style. THanks for you kind words! Take care. Greg
