Hey, it's wonderful to hear another production from you.
The FIRST thing that always strikes us is how much heart and soul your vocals have. They always sound so genuine. That will draw us into a song quicker than anything else. And this tune is certainly no exception.
In addition to the vocals and fine write the arrangement and choice of RT's along with your keyboards carry the song so well. I think Torrey mentioned the verse to verse chords...nice touch.
And, as always, the mix shines. Nothing to add and nothing to take away.
Superb!
J&B

Hi Steve,
Wow! this is good. Whether it's a remix or a brand new composition, I always love hearing your work.
Everything you do is first class. Your flair for exceptional arranging never fails to leave me feeling musically satisfied and very impressed. As I've said a number of times now, your forum submissions are something that I return to time and again when I'm trying to get ideas for my own productions.
It's so good to see you on here with a new one!
All the best, Noel

Hi Steve,
First and foremost I am glad that your health has improved, plus it sounds like that month off did you very well.
This is what should be on country radio today. Everything about this is top shelf; your backing tracks are perfect and your vocal is really strong! Plus those lyrics are top shelf!
This is a great song.

Steve,
Nice country song! (Though you say it not be a country song.) I agree with floyd. Good to see you back. A very nice write. Your vocals are always so nicely done - and work well for this type song. Comfortable and convincing. The harmonies are super. The sound of the first shot is very good. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Beautiful production and song. Not only is the vocal good, but also of equal importance is the phenomenal vocal delivery.

Steve,
Crisp inviting sound and melody, and focused, specific lyrics . . . all of which make for a good song, that sung well (as this is), makes for an easy listen. Well done!
My best to you,
Deej

Very nice work. It reminds me of John Denver a bit.
Can't name a song that... lessen it's country? Well you certainly did. And it's definitely a country tune.

Stephen, this listens very easy. Strong lyrics and story line! Vocals are smooth and clear! Excellent production.
Thank you for sharing! Misha. Thanks so much, Misha! Appreciate your kind words. Yep... I think you've got yourself a genuine Austin City Limits country song... Make sure you get it out to the public radio stations that play Texas country songs... It should do well! You're very kind, Jim! Thanks for your encouraging words. I will see what I can do to get this one out to some of the public radio stations. Who knows!... Steve,
Good to see you back.
A very nice write. Your vocals are always so nicely done - and work well for this type song. Comfortable and convincing. The harmonies are super.
Hope there will be many more to come...
fj Floyd, it is always good to hear from your! Thanks again for your words of encouragement! Thank you very much, Bob! Much appreciated! === Steve

Steve this song pushed all my buttons. What a great song. This is the kind of song that should be on all the major playlists. It's got everything going for it. Great job Thanks so much, Graham! I really enjoy your music. Glad you like this one! This feels so right. It just says what it says from the "steal" in the first line through the "steel" playing softly and sounds instantly classic. Thank you, Tangmo! Really appreciate your encouraging comments! Wow - this is outstanding It has a warm, nostalgic quality to it that I like. It is really sincere sounding, and the mix is top notch. I wouldn't bat an eyelash hearing this on the radio. You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing! Deryk, I really appreciate your kind words! Glad you like this one. Well done Steve, this was wonderful! The different elements really glue well together and very soothing to hear. Very sentimental lyrics too! Thanks, Joe! So appreciate all you guys from PG commenting on this one. Glad you enjoyed this one. === Steve

Whenever I see your name pop up on the showcase I always think "This will be a great song; with exceptional vocals." You never leave me disappointed. Great song Steve!
