Hello, Rob and Anne-Marie

Very beautiful song!
I love its classical feel so much.
The melody and the chord progression are really nice.
The vocals are also splendid.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Thank you Torrey, well I don't think it was all that much about very good material, but had more to do with the age of the contestants (guess they were focusing on a 'young ' audience).
Well, nevermind, it's been a while ;-)
Thank you for the awesome complement!

Rob and Anne-Marie,

I am always so impressed with your work! This is certainly no exception. Like Torrey said, there must have been some incredible song that was submitted by someone else if you didn't win that competition. This is so professionally done, and your vocals sound as good as ever. All on top of a very well written song.

As always, great work! Looking forward to what you submit next!

A very good composition and I really enjoyed listening to the chord progression of your piece. In another area of the forum, users posed the question "Is Good Music Dying Away?". Perhaps the answer can be found in this same "User Showcase" section of the forum...

there's a lot music here which is pleasing to my ear.

Well, that sure is a positive response, much appreciated!

Rob and Anne-Marie, this is just so beautiful.

Every part of this song has so much polish, and the vision adds an extra layer of professionalism.

I really enjoyed this. No surprise there though wink

I think I speak for most folks on the forum when I say we appreciate the great music you share with us. It was mesmerizing!

Well, we are flattered Alan. Thank you so much!

This song reminds me of a 70's era love song and I love it!

"Very beautiful! Cool video too. Renaissance man!!!" As David said...yeah!

The piano, flute/oboe and vocals are all so special in this fine arrangement. The words have already been mentioned but "classy" and "sophisticated" well fit.

The entire audio and video productions are engaging and remarkably well done.

Kudos!

Beautiful one RnAM.
There is a delicacy/honesty/sophistication/clarity about your work
that is hard to define but most delightful. Cheers.

I really love the renaissance feel to this song and video! It's absolutely stunning, and you guys did a fantastic job!

I especially love these lyrics:

"and every time I'm here
an uncertain future getting near
though your love's still strong
you won't be here for long"

Great job! <3 Even if it's an older one, it's still top quality!


Cheers,
Ember
