Janne,
Cool song! It's a mysterious song that you make me think this is just a minor tune first, but unexpected chords appear one after another. I thought it was a song that made me feel your personality. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

A really interesting well chosen band loved the mallets. Nice melody and as always a unique sounding progression.
Very well done.
Peter Thanks Peter for your kind feedback ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) Glad to hear you loved the mallets, for some reason the normal realdrums sounded too dominating, but the mallets came for help. Janne

Man, those mallets are interesting. What a cool dirge-like feel. Now that I know it's about a bar, the lyrics give a visual of patrons slowly walking to the place where the fun will begin. Excellent melody and band choice. Really like it, Janne. Thanks Marty for your positive comment ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) Very nice to read what kind of image the lyrics gave you, basically it's about a bar, but it can be interpreted other ways too. Janne

Dear 'jannesan'...
Chord-by-chord, your song took me on a dark-colored musical journey that was atmospherically charged by the ethereal strings writing, and the restless, moody, siren's blues-speak of the electric guitar Real Track.
Your impressionistic lyrics were like a special effect, creating dream-like images that formed, solidified, and then dissipated like a mist in the night.
The Real Drums mallets performed at such a slow tempo provided a suspended-in-time feel that enhanced the sense of memories of the past floating to the surface of one's consciousness.
It was an intriguing listening experience.

I like where the melody takes me in the chorus.
Oh, and the instrumentation---loved it.
Very enigmatic sounding.
This line sticks out for me: "an asylum free from grief."

like that vocal doubling and the backing. best to you.
om Thanks om for your nice comment ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) I know you like vocal doubling, I usually do that for the chorus part, to make my voice sound decent - the better sounding parts hide the bad sounding parts. Janne

As Floyd mentioned the chorus is VERY Gilbert O'Sullivan. That's a good thing by the way...he was a master of the wistful and melancholic pop song. Thanks Ray for another Gilbert reference ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) I wish to be once called the master of melancholic pop songs, in my dreams only of course ![laugh laugh](/forums/images/graemlins/default/laugh.gif) Janne

Wow Janne,
I just gave a comment on Summer nevermore and now I'm listening to Evening leave. Your singing is very different from what I know from you, but very good. I liked that percussion (mallets) in it. Gives the song some tension while on the other hand it is slowly flowing. A nice effect! And as always; very nice lyrics.
Well done Janne!! Hans Thanks Hans for your kind comment ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) I haven't changed my singing much, so maybe your observation is caused by the slow tempo and longer vowels. Glad you liked the mallets. Janne

Slow 6/8 is a bit unusual, as it the percussion.
Loved the harmony on the chorus.

Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki Adachi for your pleasant comment ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) You are right about unexpected, I'm still not sure whether the song is a major or a minor tune, maybe that reflects also the two aspects of my personality. But I tried to smile while singing "stepping in", I hope that can be heard. Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed your listen. Janne

Thanks bluage for your beautifully poetic comment ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) "dissipated like a mist in the night", very nice image, maybe I was after that image in the ending instrumental section. Couldn't agree more with the mallet comment, although I wouldn't have expressed it in such a nice decorative way ![laugh laugh](/forums/images/graemlins/default/laugh.gif) Janne
