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  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 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 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 I wish to be once called the master of melancholic pop songs, in my dreams only of course  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 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 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

It was an intriguing listening experience. Thanks bluage for your beautifully poetic comment "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 Janne
