Bawb,
A nice "change of pace" musically. Good BAND choices.
Good vocal (as always).
Mix is good.
I was surprised that the 5 minutes did not seem like 5 minutes...
I liked that it was a bit more "gentle" with your message. Soft-prayer-like.

Hello, 'Bawb'...
Your expressive, bruised-sounding singing voice packs a lot of conviction! I felt the inspiration of your faith in your performance via your committed lyrics.
The backup singers added even more soul to the sound of your production.
Also, your Real Track selections served your lyrics quite well.

I really enjoyed the vocals that express the powerful emotion of the prayer. The band supports the message, nice combination of the acoustic and tremolo guitars. Nice melody and beautiful bluesy chord progression. I'm sure this would work even better in a live concert.

That is one great vocal performance. You sound like Tom Waits (a complete compliment). The song is even written like a Tom Waits song. Well done. The band really captured the soul too.
Good one.
