Hi Kenny
The word that initially comes to mind is "Wow!" and then on second listen we could think of nothing better to say. ""Wow" covers it pretty good for us.
Your falsetto is superb. That bit of edge in your voice is the perfect compliment to the great music and lyric.
The simplicity of the music says more than a full orchestra could ever have conveyed. To say this simply gorgeous is a slight to its excellence. This is, without a doubt, our favorite song from you one of our favorites on the board at this time. Standing "O"!
Alan & Di Thanks guys! I always love to hear from you

Peter Kenny, This and all the other accolades are absolutely right. I`ll just add that your vocal has a one-take live feel that really knocks this out of the park. One of your best. Robert thanks Robert, i believe it was one take, I rehearse them a few times then record and sometimes get lucky.

Very pure and emotive vocal. The instrumentation you chose was perfect too, just right to compliment the vocal and not take away from it. Thank you Dave

Janice and I have over the years talked about how irrespective of genre we are drawn toward husky vocal timbres. Perhaps we like Americana so much as it tends to showcase such vocals. And now we have continuing great examples of it right here on the forum So obviously we loved the vocal. And, man, the write is stellar. As janice said "beautiful and soulful." And an uplifting positive lyric (the kind I wish I could write). The piano and cello tracks were made for the song and are perfectly mixed for the vocal. A fine addition to a fine catalog. J&B Thanks J&B, I love and appreciate what Janice said and respect and appreciate both of you

Beautiful Kenny, Nice job on the arrangement. The cello works so well with those piano tracks. Wonderful write and a spectacular vocal. When you went for that high note it was gripping. The raspy tone of your vocals sure hits a sweet spot. Very well done. You're on a roll! Don't mess with the muse. Keep em coming. Tom Tom quoted mine on Alan's song, I'm using his on yours - he hit all the points I would too... You are "killin' it" lately, Kenny. SO good. Your vocal recording on this is "the best ever" - really capturing the power in your vocal (I'd say keep doing whatever you did here...) Great listen. fj Let me piggyback on this train. I agree with everything they said. To me, the vocal (and song somewhat) had a Sting quality which, to me, is awesome. This is so beautifully done!! About the best compliment I can give is that after listening, I didn't want to listen to anything else for a half hour or so. Just wanted to let the sweet sound resonate in my mind, like leaving the sweet taste of dessert in your mouth after a fine meal. Truly BEAUTIFUL Kenny!!! One of my faves of so many great songs you've written! Take care. Greg Thanks Greg, now I'm hungry

Wow, Kenny! This really hits hard. I love the serenity of it, and how simple yet authentic it sounds. You can hear the emotion in this, definitely. Wouldn't change a thing! Thanks for sharing!

Kenny,
I really enjoyed this. I love the melody you've woven. It captures the mood of the lyrics wonderfully well. The piano is a perfect choice to showcase this presentation. Then there's your arrangement and you singing... both gleam with excellence!
This is definitely a work to be proud of!
Regards,
Noel
