Janne,
A lovely melody brought out with the fine arrangement.The "music box" Midi track with strings behind is perfect for the lullaby theme.
What really strikes me about this song is how good your voice is in the upper register- clear and pure sounding. The first verse to really made me sit up because of that quality.
Very well done.

Robert

Cool song.


Thanks Ray for your kind words smile Glad you commented on that word, I have no ear for English nuances… I thought a child who has just learned to walk is ready to go anywhere without fear, whole life ahead. But maybe you see the idea or 'dauntless' differently.

Janne,

Very beautiful melody!
Your vocal fits this song perfectly.
I can feel of your uniqueness very much as usual in devising the chord progression on the way.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Nicely done!


Thanks David for your kind words smile I'm glad you liked the music box, because I thought it could have had much better sound closer to real music box, I just didn't find a suitable one.

Thanks Robert, I really appreciate your kind words smile I'm glad you liked the music box thing, although its sound is not as authentic I would like. I like to sing in the upper register, because my voice doesn't break there, thus it sounds much cleaner (and my melodyne edits are not audible…)

Janne,

Enjoyed this one. . . some very stellar production touches on this one. Like that melody music box sound you’ve mixed in. And I like the melody in that first verse/chorus—the whole song has a soft lullaby feel to it. The congas work very well in this one as well. Good stuff!

All my best to you,

Deej

Well-written lyrics. Beautiful chorus melody.

I really like the instrumentation. Besides fitting the lyrics nicely, it's a unique and pleasing combination of instruments.
