Thanks, Dave. I appreciate the comment about the vocal because I thought it was a bit shaky.

Good vocal, good song. Is there really anything else that needs to be said? wink

I like it!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Great lyric with a bit of "connect your own dots" regarding the relationship.

Wonderful imagery throughout and well carried by your vocal.

Janice says "warm" describes all the aspects!

The two RT's carried the tune well. The lyric and melody offered plenty of variety without the need of additional tracks.

Nice!!

Thanks, Floyd. I like simple, but I ain't no simpleton. (I think there's a song there.)

Nicely easy-does-it. A lot of Cat Stevens feeling, to my ears. The lyric is amply mysterious and open, with a lot of contrasting visuals. She's not an easy one to figure out, is she? Very much enjoyed.

Ezekiel,

Love listening to your tunes . . . they always have a great vive and this is no exception. Great choice on the simple production—I wish I could show that restraint sometimes. Rich and heartfelt vocal. Beautifully done!

All my best to you,

Deej

Very, very well-done.

And like I as said, 'Can't understand why you're still working in the 'ed-biz' when you could easily make the grade as singer in a Johhny Cash cover band ...

All the best, Scott,

Of course it helps that this is a strong write with interesting imagery and a good hook.
Proof that less is more; nicely done!

Hi Ezekiel,

This song has an understated elegance, emphasized by your vocals.
The lyrics are wonderful and your presentation is what I said about your song.
I wondered what made you write these lyrics. I think I don't know a person, like Stefan, so that explains my wondering.
And I was also thinking would it be nice with some other instrument, like strings or a cello? To answer this myself: yes it could, but in the way you brought it, it's not necessary at all.

I enjoyed listening,
Hans

Nothing I'd rather do ;-)).

And I already thought of a name for that tour: "From Heartbreak Hotel to San Quentin"...

I like this one a lot, Scott. Really well written and a lovely warm and resonant vocal. I can picture you doing it on stage with a trio of female backing vocalists.
Regards,
Leon
