Peter,
Great take on this - love the vocal delivery and arrangement. The guitar at the songs end is tremendous.
Loved it!
Bob Thanks very much Bob. Peter

Peter,
This is excellent!
GREAT use of this lyric - in every aspect. The spoken verse had a "Rod McKuen feel". The chorus worked well after that. The bridge was really well done - the changes there were unexpected and super! Nice outro..
Excellent in every way.
floyd floyd, Thanks for the very positive review.(Glad you liked the little diminished thing in the bridge. Peter

Peter,
Let me join the chorus and say, this is indeed excellent!
Your take on Joanne's lyrics is very creative and superbly effective. I really enjoyed listening to the spoken sections. They provided a great contrast.
Definitely a work to be proud of!
All the best, Noel I think Noel's comments express what I felt as I listened. The guitar outro was spot on. Super job! Alan

Great take on the song Peter! Speaking the lyric works really well! The guitar starting at 2:18 really finishes the tune nicely! Thanks, Torrey

The drama on this one is insane in a good way (tactfully done; gives it a good flow). You guys have been doing such a great job of putting your own twists on Joanne's lyrics. I also really enjoyed the spoken word component of this version! Great job.

Different and welcome approach to the lyrics. Kind of Mark Knopfler sound in your voice, both spoken and sung... or did I say that already in my 'The Hard Way' comment  . The piano really lifts this to the heights. I would have put down the organ a little. Lovely peaceful guitar at the end. Janne Thanks Janne - appreciate those comments. Peter

Love the contrast between the spoken word and the vocal.
Great set of lyrics from Joanne.
Love the tasty, emotive guitar work too. Over too soon for my tastes, you could have extended that a bit.
Excellent track, well done!! Dave Thanks - I do have a longer version - (one for the special edition CD!)

Excellent in every way.
floyd What he said! We get the McKeuen feel. Used to read a lot of him back in the day - well Bud did -- Janice was a child  But then the Knopler feel is there also. The lyric, upon refection, is perfect for the spoken verse and set up the chorus really well. We agree with Dave that more of the guitar work would've been great. The spoken word, the lead singing and the harmony all really nails the entire feel of the song and well expresses the lyric. Excellent Kudos!!!!!! J&B Janice/Bud Thanks for those encouraging words. Really appreciate them. Peter

Peter, Very laid back... on the surface: we get to feel the tension in the lyrics through understatement. I love the simple arrangement. An original and very enjoyable take on the song!
Robert Thanks Robert Peter

Interesting tune Peter! You did some really cool music here!! Just listened to Janne.....amazing how different the song is with different melodies. Yours is more mysterious (I hear some Dire Straights here) and his is more ethereal. Nice job!! Take care. Greg

Hello, Peter
Heavy sound! Dramatic! I am surprised at the difference with my version. It is very interesting that the contrast between the spoken word and the vocal. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
