I had to smile on the last lines of the chorus. Nicely said, but is also gives mixed feelings...

While typing my lines your song still plays in my head.
That is the feeling songs must give!

Send my greetings to Di,
Hans


Hello Hans ...

I appreciate all those nice things you said about my song. And yes, it's a good sign when the melody stays in one's head for a while after listening. That put a smile on my face!

I hope to be able to spend more time here soon. My wife has been very sick and, as you know, we just moved into our new house. So, my time is pretty much taken up with all that. But, will try to keep an eye for your songs. They're always really good!

Best to you. Be safe ...

ALan

Hearing this one I think that you should consider to come up with a non-instrumental far more often - I definitely like your singing style. In it's fragileness it sounds so ... ah .. true and honest, no frills, just transporting the emotion of these (very well written!) lyrics perfectly.

When I listened to it, Maha incidentally crossed the room, suopped and listened, too, without saying a word. Then she said, 'Look here, goosebumps...'

Musically, I think, this song is somehow perfect - everything's in the pocket, that PSG solo is grand. radio stuff !

Really, really good !

All the best to Di and you,

Stefan



Hi Stefan ...

You are always so kind with your comments about my music. I sincerely appreciate that!

Although I am rarely fond of my vocals, I think this one turned out pretty good. And I agree with you about the pedal steel ... it was a perfect fit for the song. Paul Franklin was the pedal steel guitar player. I've met him several times in Nashville ... a really nice guy and excellent musician.

Di and I think of you and Maha almost everyday. We hope she continues to get better. Please give her a big hug for us. You and she are very special friends to us. We wish you both the very best. Please be safe, my friends ...

Alan & Di

This is fantastic. And what makes it, in no small part, is the vocal delivery. A unique way of singing and of delivering the song which draws the listener in and somehow hypnotises him or her! Well done - a wonderful achievement. Nice final chord, too! :-)

Hi James ...

I appreciate all those kind words very much! I'm glad the vocal came across as it did to you. Vocals are not my strongest suite! Glad you enjoyed the song. Thanks for letting me know! Wishing you the very best...
