Hi Noel,
the song title is a true characterization of the song itself: It's so beautiful. Very touching music and lyrics. I agree with everything that's been said by the other forum members - what a treat.
Cheers,
Stefan

A simple beautiful love song... the world needs more these! Jim, Thank you! I really appreciate that you had time to have a listen. All the best, Noel Dear "Noel96"...
"So Beautiful" is the musical equivalent of someone handing a flower to another, of a younger person deliberately taking the time to hold a conversation with an elderly person, of reading a book aloud to someone without the gift of sight, and other such selfless, bonding, and boundlessly loving actions.
Its brevity is analogous to the phrase, "short and sweet." No matter which way you "come at" a song, "Noel96", you seem to always to lead with your heart.
God bless you for composing and performing this inspired song for Al and Ms. Diane, sir!
LOREN Hi Loren, I always appreciate reading your thoughtful and eloquent comments. Thank you. You, sir, are what my Oxford dictionary defines most clearly and most accurately as a 'gentleman'. Now if only I had a voice like yours. The way you sing "Lately..." is just wonderful! (I'm yet to comment on it.) My good wishes to you, Noel

Hi Noel,
Couldn't pass up another listen. I'm delighted Stefan brought it up to the top again so the newer members can bathe in the beauty of your talent. It's a gorgeous as I had remembered it being. You certainly humbled us, in a good way, with this musical creation and dedication. To simply know something this beautiful came from such a bleak report on her health speaks so appropriately of your ability to comprehend and and find the proper musical expression for such news. You will always be genuinely endeared to us, a fact in which we take extreme pleasure. Again, many heartfelt thanks. And you are always in our thoughts and prayers. Wishing you well.

Alan & Di Hi Alan and Di, The song could not have happened without the two of you. It was a pleasure to be able to create something special for you both. My thoughts continue to be with you both, Noel
