Wow, this is great!
Really good writing and of course the vocal/harmonies are spot on.
The treatment on:
"callin', callin'
fallin', fallin'",
not exactly sure how you did that, but it's superb!
Outstanding from the intro with Peter's guitar to the ending with just Janice. Loved it! Thanks Dave. We are glad you like the little bridge. floyd arranged it and I applied different amounts of Nectar's reverb, delay and compression on each the three vocal parts that make it up. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn't but thought in this case we felt it sounded pretty good.

Hi Team,
Your stuff is SO consistently good that I'm running out of things to say.
Having said that, this has to be one of my favourites.
The mood is established from the very start by Peter's delicate guitar and than carried
through beautifully by Janice's emotive vocal.
Clever, well crafted lyrics, a super backing track and an excellent mix complete the package.
Loved the whole thing.
ROG.

Hi Janice and blud,
It's a beautiful ballad song. The instruments are all in their place and the perfect mix. Nectar is a good fx.

Hi Bud, Janice, Floyd and Peter,
Your band is becoming more and more impressive with all those musicians participating in this cool song.
You sing beautifully subdued, Janice! And the chorus is very nice.
The composition and lyrics are also strong, but who could even think it wouldn't with this buch of gus working on it.
I can't find more words to express how well you performed in this song.
Oh, one thing... I haven't heard something wrong on the drums. to me all is a plus!
Hans

Somewhere in heaven Janice, Bud, Floyd and Peter lives.
I sometimes get pleasantly surprised by the soft diamonds that drops down from heaven.

A good write with some subtle self examination, avoiding cliches.
Lots of mentionable lines; I like these:
a fool opens dangerous doors
forgiveness has its limits, you reached yours
The way Janice bends the melody adds to the hurt of the theme and Peter`s guitar has just the right edge.
I agree with Dave;that little vocal treatment on "callin` callin" is sublime!
Very good work from all four collaborators.
Robert
Thank you Robert. All credit to floyd for those lines. And, yes, we feel the same about Peter’s guitar. And we appreciate that mention of the vocal treatment. Glad it worked for you! J&B

Nice to hear another angle to the old subject. I almost wrote 'angel', because Janice sings like an angel interpreting the fallen angel really credibly, her voice is pure magic at the closing time. The open ending is very nice addition. Perfect sounding mix and enjoyable guitar playing.

Excellent write. Janice snakes around those lines with that world-weary sense. Band sounds good. Peter's fills extremely tasteful...good sense of "song". Really, really nice and effective ending that fits the theme to a tee. Much enjoyed. Thanks for everything and for mentioning the ending also. And we agree Indeed that Peter did a great job. We appreciate your support. J&B

Yes, definitely a Floyd write: "a slippery slope a wayward path/so i was bound to face an angel's wrath" --Gold!
Vocal and guitar, both excellently performed. I like Janice's slide up into "side."
Solid production!

I got a strong Jackson Browne feel from this one, with lines like 'inviting looks washed in neon' and the general conceit of 'wreckage.' Fantastic work, hard to outdo your usually exceptional norm, but I think you did it here. Thank you for the positive and thoughtful comments. Hats off to floyd for that line and the mention of Jackson Browne is humbling. We appreciate it! J&B

As someone who has messed up a lot of things, to include relationships, I can have empathy with who ever this song is about. The music and vocals were, as I expected, really well done. The lyrics were as I said, something I unfortunately can identify with. Also, something that I haven't seen mention is that the songs vocal rhythm (cadence?) sounds like (to me) Don McLean's American Pie. Really thoughtful and well put together.
Thanks for posting it...

Brilliant guys , I never know who to praise Except Janice for vocals , but I guess that's the music industry for you !!.
Great write and as always mix/production in my cans sounding awesome, your over all sound is in a sense pure !!.
I did feel the lead guitar a bit distracting during Janice's vocals in the verses , as I just did not see the reason for it too be there ?.
Great to hear another from you and bud setting the bar even Higher !!.
Take care.
Thanks
