This is very good. I personally liked the reverb vocals. It was like you were talking to your mother from far away. And you are as you are here on earth and she is in heaven.

Excellent lyrics, good vocal, and mix.


I arrived early to a restaurant.
The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?"
I said no.
"Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3"

Hello MarioD

Thank you for the feedback, and I never thought of the reverb in that way. Yeah she was a great parent, a very tough, resilient and spirited woman. I really hope this song reaches others who share the same feeling.

Have a wonderful day!

A pretty song, and a wonderful tribute!! Having lost both of my parents in the last 4 years, I can certainly relate. The music has the feel of some of the 60's British music that I love! Enjoyed this a lot!! Take care. Greg

Nice tribute and this comes across to the listener as it should, panning , reverb, vocals lo high or buried .
I've heard it all through the decades and that's the hits in the charts I'm talking about, you have to be different, experiment, if not everything would sound the same no variety in music.

Wow what a thought, nice one.

Thanks
