Great! Has your signature sound for sure. What I really like is how you arranged this, the way you brought in the drums and bringing in the pedal steel at all the proper places.
One of your best.

Man, do we ever love your "airy" mixes. No track ever seems to steps on another. We work hard to achieve that and your productions are a great reference toward that end.
floyd said ...The production on this is killer. Great RT choices. The acoustic strum is excellent. The bass good enough to carry the song alone. The steel is exquisite. The drums... truly "POP!"
Dittos to all of that.

I remembered tonight
I could see the room grow dim
In a broken ray of light
You run through my mind like a silver blue greyhound"
Love that!

Very cool tune Bob!! I love the arrangement. I always use the pedal steel on top of a full arrangement. Having it laid over a sparse arrangement is a great vibe-gonna have to try that myself. Really nicely put together. Enjoyed much!! Take care. Greg

Hi Bob,
What a great arrangement! I really liked listening to how you sweetened the mix with musical flavours... it's something that I don't do enough of in my mixes.
I enjoyed the write, your performance, and the production too. Everything worked for me. You managed to create a sense of nostalgia and memories of 'what used to be' in my mind. It was a pleasant journey.
All the best,
Noel We think Noel described this perfectly. Great job, Bob! The Atmospheric Pedal Steel was just so danged cool. And as kenny mentioned, the bass line was terrific - sort of a modified "Under The Boardwalk" feel to it. All your backing tracks were spot on. Everything in its place and added exactly what was needed. Thanks for a great listen. Alan & Di These say it all --GREAT SONG

Hello, Bob
Very Pop!
Nice melody and pleasant vocal.
The chord progression is the royal road of Pops.
I personally wanted to hear the bridge melody somewhere in this tune.
Very enjoyable listen.
Best regards.
