Quite a production Janne!! Really nicely put together-shaken, not stirred. Great job on everything, and Rob nails the vocal. Great!! Take care. Greg

I enjoyed my listen.

All the best,

Thanks Noel, always pleasure to read your comments. Although I didn't try to hint at any song on purpose, subconscious does good work many times smile And BIAB generates many interesting things that guide the process to the right direction.

Ambitious project this one. I would say it delivers in practically every respect. Maybe Bond musical protocol would have you hitting an exaggeratedly tragic minor chord on "when the curtains fall" but I guess traditions are there to be broken. Was that a nod to McArthur's Park at the end!!

Janne, as Noel commented, very inventive! Also complex! I particularly liked the melody of the verses. I appreciate the amount of work that had to go into this. Very good! Thanks, Torrey.

Thanks Marc, I appreciate your positively interesting comment smile I don't follow traditions, if I have a chance to break one, I'll do it wink. And no intentional connection to M. Park.

Talk about a wall of sound. Complex and yet it all came together quite well. Very creative.
