The mix is excellent and that harmonica is in our opinion the best of the harmonica RT's by far.

The weary feel of your vocal added the right touch to all of the above.

Well done!

Thanks Janice and Bud, always pleasure to read your sympathetic comments smile Glad you liked the clock rhythm, that was subconsciously intentional, I never planned it. Thanks for another McCartney reference, I'm honored, now I'm listening to his early albums, somehow I have only familiar with his 80's solo records.

Crisp mix as well.

Excellent!

Thanks Bob for enjoying and listening to my little song smile Very nice to hear that this was one of my best lyrics, maybe the ease of the lyrics writing shows.

"through the snowbanks on the beach (snowbanks on the beach)"
I played your song to my partner and she liked it. We actually live by the beach and she is 65 and has never seen snow !

Thanks Gary for your positive and insightful comment smile Glad to hear that you can empathize with the story.

I hope you can give your partner an opportunity to see and touch snow, but of course I'm not hoping that your beach will be covered in snowbanks laugh

Hi jannesan,

It is a very relaxing composition and very pleasant to listen to. The harmonica is well placed and its melodic line fits perfectly. Well done.
