Wow! What a beautiful piece! Pretty much everything has been said that I wanted to say. Love the a capella beginning, sets the stage for the loneliness of the song. And the strings really work in this one. The lyrics are just beautiful, just about every line is quotable. So poetic.

Well done!

Beautiful, aching poetry. Poetry set to music, as Dave stated. Some of Leonard Cohen's stuff came to mind. Laura Nyro, as well. Well done.

Wonderful poetry Robert!! A very cool song......unusual changes, and a beautiful vocal, great strings, and I love that muted guitar strum which is like a backbone throughout! Really a great effort all the way!! Take care. Greg

Hi Robert,

I'm afraid I missed this song, but until now!
I like your style. Always that melancholic mood that make me creep in my own mind.
Very nicely done, but it is also complicated. For singing. Especially in the middle part of the song.
It's nice to hear how you struggle through it. Very good. That feeds the 'medieval' touch in this song (as I would describe it).

Thank you for listening and commenting Jim & Birchwood ( I like that you picked up on the "medieval" chant parts in the song).

Exquisite poetry. As others have said, hauntingly beautiful. Perfect choice for instrumentation.

Robert,

It's a pretty mysterious song.
I'm not good at English, so I can't really understand the meaning of lyrics, but I feel something special.
Your vocals just fit this tune. Emotional.
The chord progression is characteristic.
As floyd says, the combination of the muted acoustic and the newage piano is super.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

What a great song!

Super a cappella intro.

What fantastic instrumentation you have in this song. Excellent vocal! Outstanding mix.

Everything is perfect.


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.
