All the hallmarks of a Steve Young song...
Wonderful arrangement. Excellent production. Outstanding Vocals and Harmonies. Solid writing. Beautiful mix.
The opening and the drop are both really nice. The banjo is a nice addition.
Well done all around - as always. An excellent listen.
(looking forward to you being around more often!!)

Well, you sure were able to get 7/4 to stick on solid ground. I always look forward to your posts knowing they'll be top notch write, arrangement, production and performance. This was exceptional. Enjoyed.

Steve,
This is absolutely stunning!
I love that opening and it leads the ears into a really, really fine composition. The lyrics are superb and you've set them to a really catchy melody. Your vocals and harmonies are first class.
The backing you've created amazed me. I didn't realise it was 7/4 until I read your post (I always try to listen first without reading comments because I like to compare my thoughts to comments after the listen). This is such a terrific time signature and you've used it with flair. It's great to know that Realtracks worked so comfortably with something out of the ordinary.
Everything about this shines with polish and glistens with professionalism. Without doubt, you continue to inspire!
It was definitely worth taking the time to set up these bars of alternating 4/4 and 3/4.
All the best,
Noel

Steve,
The whole atmosphere is like a gospel.
7/4 is a time signature that is pretty complicated, but your song does not make us feel like that.
It is very natural.
Your singing is wonderful as usual.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

That was a stunning effort, great work on the 7/4 meter and just a wonderful catchy tune beautifully sung.
Loved the vocal, drum passage - actually all of it.

First of all, please forgive me for "disappearing" on y'all! I took early, semi-retirement the end of January. My wife insisted that I disappear from the face of the planet for a few weeks, and try to get de-stressed. After working almost 7 years of 60 hour weeks, in addition to pastoring a church, she knew I needed the time off. She was right (as always). I am now back involved in civilization, and much more relaxed and happy.
Thanks to all of you for posting such kind words about this song. I won't take over everyone else's threads to thank each one individually. Just know that all of you are important to me, and very much appreciated!
Now, I will get to listening to some of what I have been missing the past couple of months!

Yes, as others have said, this has all the hallmarks of a Steve Young write--hooky as all get out, masterful build and arrangement. A real foot stomper, inspiring lyrics, great vocals. But I think I can tell where you are getting all of these tricks: Playin' in a P&W band will make you learn some arrangement chops, won't it Steve?  Happy Sunday morning y'all--time to kick out the jams! Glad to see you came back!

Happy Sunday morning y'all--time to kick out the jams! Glad to see you came back! Thanks, David! Yes, leading a Worship band will bring out some chops, indeed. Several live presentations a week in the same location, with a constant need to have fresh material will bring that out in you. Glad you like this one! Steve
