I`d be interested to hear whether folks find it too long; I`ve sometimes finished the song on a repeat of the 1st verse rather than singing the 1st chorus again- any other thoughts welcome as well.

About the vocals: The lead vocal needs a little bit more articulation, the harmony vocal could be a little less loud. But all in all.. well done!

Rob and Anne-Marie Hi Rob & Anne-Marie, I`m glad you liked the song and agree with your take on the vocals. I had so much BiaB teething trouble recording the lead that after remixing to get them more in the centre, the volume had dropped way down and I considered starting again. If I do record this again I will transpose up a little as there are parts of the chorus that feel too bassy for my voice. Cheers, Robert
