Dave / Chris,
Awesome song! Love the title and lyrics...
The tele sounds tremendous and the vocal is stellar. It has a fragile almost glass like quality. Simply outstanding!
Loved it!
Bob I passed along your comments on the vocal to Chris, made her day! She wanted it to sound delicate and vulnerable. And yeah, something very special about tele’s, especially for clean sounds. Thanks, Bob!

This has a very nice dreamlike quality. I like the way your guitar answers the vocal in parts of the verse. Top-notch vocal. A very listenable (over and over) creation. "dreamlike" is exactly the mood we were shooting for with this, so happy you picked up on that! And doing guitar lines around a vocal is something I always like to do, assuming there is room to do so. Glad you liked this, thanks for the listen and comments!

This is captivating in a cool ethereal way. We've oft said it but you and Chris have a (perhaps synchronicity is the word) way of complementing each other's contribution that is rare in the music world. We talked about this but just decided to say that this is one of the best blues rock based ballads we've heard...and that covers a lot of territory  As floyd said EVERYTHING is good. Over the top good. Wow! J&B

Wow - you really did an amazing job with this. It's a gorgeous, lush tune with a perfect arrangement. It sounds really professional, and the vocals on it are stunning. Nicely catchy as well, and the guitar work is fantastic. Not a thing I'd change - thanks for sharing
Cheers,
Deryk

Hi Dave, I wholeheartedly agree with Trevor when he says... Very impressive, a great feel combines the music and vocals just perfectly, all delivered at a perfect tempo.
The mix is superb, nothing out of place, nothing that shouldn't be there, and nothing missing. A great production.
There's an other-worldly quality about this presentation that mesmerised me as I sat here listening. You and Chris have done a terrific job.... very, very enjoyable music in every way. All the best, Noel

Hauntingly beautiful Dave! Love those minor chord changes in the verses! Great vocal from Chris! Her voice is such a perfect fit for your work! Loved that guitar tone and little quiet guitar parts in the background.....they are so sweet and really help make this track! I always love everything you do! Thanks, Torrey Thanks for the listen and very nice comments, Torrey! Dave,
The title image is evocative and I liked the melody and vocal interpretation; soaring on the chorus with Christiane sounding almost ethereal.
The highlight for me is your guitar on this ( I thought that intro was an RT`til I read your
notes)... its all so subtle and supportive of the song!
Well done to you both.
Robert
Hi, Robert, I often use the acoustic guitar RT's, and sometimes the electric rhythm guitar RT's, but the lead guitar is always me. I figure the lead guitar is my job, plus it's fun Thanks as always for your support!

Cool indeed.
lovely song and the arrangements are the right setting.
The voice suits the lyric and the melody suits the feel - well done.
Nice guitar tone and just the right amount of delay.
It may be worthwhile trying to lower the click in the kick drum during the rim shot/side stick sections as they have the click & tap have a lot of frequencies in common. Thanks, Ray, happy you liked this! Can you expand on what you mean by lowering the click in the kick drum if you don't mind? I'm not sure what you mean by that.

Hi Dave,
this is a very beautiful song. Such a good listen... Everything perfect: voval, guitar, arrangement, mix...
An excellent job
Cheers,
Stefan Thanks, Stefan! Very cool song. Nice changeup from your hard driving songs. Such a beautiful lyric and vocal. Dave your guitar work is first class. Love the full clean tone of the tele. Sweet playing. This one deserves radio play... Hi Scott, Yes, my tele has been my favorite guitar for a while now, it's the one I always grab if I just feel like playing and it's the best for the clean sounds I think. Thanks!

Wow, love the vocal on this—of course, accentuated brilliantly by the piano and those slick underlying guitar (and lead) licks. Nice ratcheting up on those drums in chorus. Really digging this one. Nicely done!
All my best,
Deej

Amazing arrangement here with heavenly vocals. Amazing ballad vocalist ! Really enjoyed listening I'm happy you enjoyed it, Thanks, Graham! Dave, great job using the held chords in the verses and the busier piano in the choruses. The vocals are a spot on match to the lyrics and the guitar tone and touch works to perfection. You two are on a big roll with some wonderful songs. The mix is right there. Great stuff,Tom Thanks for the listen and comments, Tom!
