I absolutely love the chorus - agreed with Scott on the Gilmour vibes!. I also really appreciate how subtle the strings are - effective choice. Thanks Will B, appreciate the listen and kind words

Kenny,
I enjoy your laid back mood on this and especially liked the vocal- that touch of rasp in your voice a nice contrast to the soothing melody.

Kenny,
This is an excellent listen. The writing, arranging, singing and mixing all work hand-in-hand to create a top notch product. You've pulled out all stops with this one!
All the best,
Noel Noel said it well and we'll add that this one rips the paint right off of your heart. Great production. J&B

Such an excellent write, arrangement, mix, production and performance. Great vocals on this and you really captured the emotive elements for this ballad. Enjoyed this a lot.

I just got deeper and deeper into it, Kenny...it is just beautiful...I hope you have a submittal portal for films/soundtrack catalogues....I could actually SEE movie scenes....
I like that the vocals are not completely out front. And I'm a hack and I'm sure you toyed around with pulling them back slightly, echoed, might give it a a subliminal feel, Cowboy Junkies-ish.
BUT, it is a wonderful mix as is! I could go on all day.

Beautiful!!! This song could be 15 minutes long and I wouldn't get tired of it. So pleasantly sad and soulful. I can just float in it. A real treat!! Take care. Greg

Kenny,
This is a really terrific listen. I like the way you seem to write "songs that SING" - such sing-able melodies with the words falling "just right". It is such an important part of writing (often overlooked) and you do it so well...
The band fits well and your vocals (as always) are a real pleasure to listen to.
I look forward to whatever comes next!

Hello Kenny,
This is the first ballad Di and I have heard from you. We really enjoyed it!
Your raspy voice wraps itself around the music perfectly. Great mix (perhaps vocal just a touch too forward), good lyric and the prosody are spot on. Our favorite from you so far. best,
Alan & Di Thanks guys, Already re-mixed vocals and fixed little piano glitch, just don't want to replace Soundcloud version and lose the nice comments from folks here. I appreciate your kind words

A great opening phrase, long ago, and then far away, they really set the mood, a wonderful integration of lyrics and melodic line. Thanks Marty, I was waiting for someone to comment on that (the two phrases) I appreciate your listen and kind words

Hello, Kenny
Very nice slow ballad.
I think it is very difficult to make a good melody with only three notes.
But you've done the job.
It is very beautiful the melody with the isomorphic iteration of three notes.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best Regards.
Shigeki Adachi thank you so much for the listen and the kind words
