Excellent song , arrangement and mix just blends in with the vocals .
You all should be pleased with this one , I liked the feel due to the strong bass line , In my opinion !!. Bass gives a good guide to a good melody.
Great vocals top it all off !
Thanks Thank you! Janice

Wow! That was something, and quite the delight to my ears after a long day of work.
This is one of those songs/productions where everything has come together magnificently!
That bass sounds a bit McCartney-esque.

Hi Scott,
Wow, this is such a fantastic song. Surely everyone involved was on the top of their game this day! Janice's singing is as polished as always. The beginning guitar grabs the attention and the whole song was just a really sweet and enjoyable listen. Thanks for posting! Thank you! I appreciate you mentioning my vocal. Janice

Thanks Thanks so much for checking out the song. Appreciate the comments. Glad you liked it. Hi Scott,

The beginning guitar grabs the attention and the whole song was just a really sweet and enjoyable listen. Thanks for posting! Thanks Bawb. I was in good company with this tune. Thanks for checking it out. Glad you liked it. Cool opening guitar.
A gorgeous vocal. Stunning.
Very nice backing. Subtle. Just right for the song. Sweet bass sound.
Excellent mix.
A very pleasant listen.
Cool cover photo! (That girl is forever walking away...)
fj Thanks for checking out the song Floyd. Glad you liked it. Something very special coming :-) Scott & Crew.
This was totally unexpected. Excellent teamwork! Nice laid back Indie / Folk tune. Everyone has their own space, yet sound as a team/whole. To me, that is the "prize won" in a collaboration. Solid write and performance. Janice - wonderful vocals, you took this to whole new dimension. Bud, A+ mix. What fascinates me is to witness new creations taking shape, powered by people so far apart and so different. Good one! Thank you for sharing.
Misha.
P.S. Sorry late for the party, storm related issues.
Thanks Misha for checking out the song. So glad you liked it. Appreciate the awesome comments.

Cheers

Sounds great. Open sound, clear guitar, strong vocals. I'm not sure I've ever heard a song with the "acquiescence" in the lyric, so bonus points there!

Wonderful!
I see Spirit level is expanded and Bud and Janice joined. You are getting nearly unbeatable!
Very nice song, sensitive lyrics, very well sung and a satin leadguitar!
And amazing how everyone is working together nowadays.
I see I stayed behind on that path... But let me keep my focus on this performance.
It's just great, I said on SoundCloud. And that is what it is.
I enjoyed it very much,
Hans
Thanks Hans for checking out the song. Spirit Level had decided to take a hiatus for awhile so this was a collaboration with Janice, Bud, Ray and myself. Really glad you liked the song.
Hey Y'all,
Lovely Job here.
Beautiful, poignant, and great performances.
A real treat.
Thank you David. Really glad you liked it. Scott, Janice, Bud & Ray,
Simply beautiful... Nothing more to say.
Loved it.
Bob

Thanks folks,
This was always going to be a lovely song.
The progression and fluid guitar lines were an excellent starting point.
When Janice & Bud joined the production team the result was guaranteed to be fabulous.
Cheers
