Joe,
Nice work on this Robert! Really enjoyed the overall progression. Well done!
Thank you,Joe!
Interesting lyric choices. I definitely get where your inspiration comes from.
Ember,
There was an English kids show called Magpie which used those rhymes on the theme song- it stuck with me.
Your new tune brings to mine troubadours from days of olde

...
Nicely conceived & done...
I really enjoyed it.
Jim,
Good to hear I got that olde sound right!
Thanks for your comments.
Wow - you really did a great job with this. Your vocals and the lyrics fit the melodies gorgeously. It really is a pretty tune. It is simultaneously melancholic, but hopeful in it's vibe as well. For me, it really stuck.
You should be proud of this one. Thanks for sharing

I appreciate those positives Deryk-especially on the vocals.
Robert,
Really nice song. Grabbed me right in. I am a big fan of folk inspired modern interpretations. Celtic music has
some very beautiful and unusual twists and breaks, this tune reflects this pretty well.
Thank you for sharing!

Misha,
I like it when someone with a strong connection to folk music approves- thank you!
Liked it a lot, wish I knew more of its meaning, but some of my favorite songs are like that. Your voice is well suited to the tune.
TuneMonger,
The rhyme parts are just there to add some mystery; perhaps I should have titled the tune To Catch A Thief for those not growing up with Magpie folklore.
