Wow! How exciting! Congrats on the home!

Now the song, I get, you mentioned, was to be a sad song. I definitely hear the pain there. I also hear moments of what feels like that moment of a pleasant memory that again turns back into the realization of loss. That is probably me reading WAY too far into it; but it struck me as what mourning feels like.

Very well done my friend!

Hi Lean ...

Thank you! We are enjoying out place very much! It's far better than what we thought we'd ever be able to own. We also bought all new furniture for it.

And thanks for the kind thoughts on the song. Glad you enjoyed it. Wishing you the very best. Take care and be safe ...

Enjoyed it!

Janice and Bud ...

Thanks. The house is terrific! We're loving it! Well, if this house lasts 32 years, our estate will have to deal with it! If I live long enough to pay it off, I'll b e 106 years old! I guess there' always a chance!!!

Thanks for the kindness to our song. This one just fell into p[lace will little forethought or planning from me. The chords just came to me, as they often do. But, even with whatever amount of talent I posses, it would be largely wasted without this magnificent program. It's as close to magic as it can be. It makes me look better than I am.

Wishing you both the very best. Please take care and be safe.

Alan

Hi Aaron ...

You actually read this exactly as I hoped it would come across. Mama's gone ... that's sad. Mama's going to a good place ... that's good. Mama's trouble are gone ... that's good. Mama left an indelible legacy of which we are proud ... that's excellent. That pretty much sums up my thought process as I put the various elements of the song together. You keyed into it perfectly. That's a satisfying feeling for me that you heard it as I intended it. Thank you so much for validating my effort. I'm smiling big!

Wishing you the very best. Please stay safe.

Alan

Deej ... How are you, my friend? Well, I hope. It's always a treat to hear from you.

The house is marvelous. We've been here a week today ... woohoo! Four bedrooms and three full baths. One of the bedrooms is my office, one is Di's arts and crafts room, one is a guest bedroom, and the last is the large, spacious master bedroom. With three full bathrooms, you don't have far to go when ya need to pee!

Thank you for the very nice words about the song. This one just came together from whi knows where.

Many thanks. Wishing you everything good. Take care ...

Alan

Alan,
Sad and beautiful. Nice chord movement. Strings are a bit too dry for my taste, but that is very minor. Enjoyed my listen. Thank you for sharing.

P.S.Congrats to you and DI on new place! Perhaps a title for your new tune "Cardboard Jungle" ? smile

I too love the violin/fiddle, but I also the way the bass line plays against and with the fiddle. This is a bit of a "strolling" piece.

Hi Misha ...

Thanks for the listen and nice comments. I intentionally left the fiddle dry as I wanted it to sound as though the three instrumentalists might be on their back porch.

And thanks for the well wishes on the house. We've been here ten days and still have many boxes to unpack. Again, many thanks. Take care and be safe ...

Hi Ez ...

Thanks for the listen and very nice words. You have no idea how many bass tracks I previewed before settling on this one. Since there are no drums and the acoustic 6-string doesn't vary, I needed a bass line that differed somewhat between the verses and the chorus and this one fit the bill. The difference is dramatic but just enough to differentiate the two parts.

Thanks again! Best to you. Please be safe ...

Alan

Hi Greg ...

Always treat to hear from you, my friend. Thank you for the very nice comments. Sure do appreciate them! We've been in our new house 10 days and still have a myriad of boxes to unpack. But we're making progress. Thanks!

As always, wishing you and yours the very best. Please be safe ...

Alan, Congratulations on the new house. It must be an exciting time for you both. The instrumental is very well done and as mentioned in a previous comment you have a well developed knack for finding the perfect real tracks that have been hiding in plain sight from the rest of us. Your knowledge of chord progressions is always so natural yet at the same time full of little turns that twist the ear and keep it interesting. Good job on this one. Enjoy the new place, Tom
