Summary of lyrics

Twinkling and smiling, the sun calls us
Go giving shadows anywhere and anytime

There is a good time and also a bad time
But our life is wonderful as we have the both time
When we want to cry
When we want to shout
There is always the sky above us

Shiny and softly, floating and drifting
With courage and hope, with a little warmth

Visible things or even invisible things
We will go forward with their helps
We can go anywhere
We can do anything
Because there is always the sky above us

Twinkling and smiling, the sun calls us
Go giving shadows anywhere and anytime

Shigeki

Beautifully presented, very professional, and the vocal harmonies have really added dimension to the song.

Another masterpiece, for sure.

Very nice. This is more of a MOR pop ballad than country rock. Just because the style is country rock, doesn't make the composition country rock. I use a hard rock style quite often for my country tunes. But that issue aside...

Yoko's vocals and harmonies are really nice. Everything sounds good to me on this end of the speakers. Well done in every aspect of this recording and composition.

Shigeki,

This is fine work. A really warm vocal and the production is top notch - your string arrangement adds drama and is very well integrated.
Most enjoyable!

Hello, Trevor, Scott, Herb, Robert, Rob & Anne-Marie, Curt, Peter, floyd and Greg

Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I much appreciate your immediate positive feedbacks.
I am very glad to hear you like this song and Yoko's vocal.

Herb, Rob & Anne-Marie,
Yes, you are right. Certainly it is hard to say Country Rock.
I understand I don't have true Country feeling.
And I always appreciate BIAB because I can make many songs with various different styles.

Best Regards.

This is an interesting, creative and well performed blend of styles.

The pro sounding production is lush and the vocals are outstanding. And the mix sounds excellent on our monitors.

Nice!!

As always, Shigeki, I love your stuff! The intro guitar is so good -- the tone is very unexpected but also very effective! Can't wait to hear more smile
