The understated anthemic feel...love it! I keep feeling like it's going to burst out into something much bigger, the the instrumental break happens; and it returns back to the other feel. I really like how you did that.
Really nice song!

Great lyrics. I especially like your extended metaphor. Great use of the instrumentation to establish a corresponding mood to mesh with the lyrics.

That's good. I enjoyed the song and the mystique of the lyrics...

Bob,
Love your vocal here . . . and, well, on every song you sing for that matter—really engaging; you have your own, really worldly sound. Production is just killer, particularly the guitar in between the second and third verses—really crisp. Lyrics are poetic, with a superb hook. Incredibly well done! Enjoyed this a ton!
Kind regards,
Deej

I enjoyed it, I thought of Death Cab taking a Goth turn. Moody deluxe, which it has to be if you're gonna name a song Vampires. Great job!
