I'm prompted to post this by the death of my last of 42 aunts and uncles (Uncle Ed passed at 91 this week)...inspired lyrically by Revelations21:2 and the arrangement is inspired by the Eagles song "Hole in the World"...Rev 21:2 says, "I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband." If you decide to listen and or comment...thanks so much...Dan New Jerusalem https://soundclick.com/r/s31k4yBiaB components: 2613 Bass 1574 Electric Guitar 3724 Electric Guitar 3697 Acoustic Guitar Real Drums=Funky groove 60s I did the vocals and added everything else from a Yamaha Tyros 5

Dan,
I can relate to you! I am at the age where I've only got a handful of family that are older than me and I start thinking of what's coming beyond the end of this life!
This is such a great song! It's inspiring and very pleasant to listen to. The vocals are SUPER!
It occurred to me as I listened how much you remind me of the group Phillips, Craig and Dean....uncanny similarity to their vocal sound, and that my friend is an extremely high compliment!
Take care, Torrey

Take care, Torrey Torrey...I love P,C & D...I've seen them in concert and they are some of my vocal heroes...I'm humbled and you my friend are going deaf...but thanks...Phillips, Craig and Dean, The Gatlin's, The Eagles, etc. are my cup of tea and the kind of music I would love to aspire to...I appreciate your comments so much.

Very pleasant song, mellowed me out. Is there a heaven? Who can say? But it's hell getting old, that we know.
Sorry for the loss of your uncle. Hope it was 91 good years.

Wow! Those harmonies are something else.  Nice write. Claps work really nicely. You've got a very distinctive sound here. Key change is really effective. I like the sort of call/response between the harmonies repeating the chorus and the lead vocal - that works really well. A couple minor of nits: - It sounds like the rotary sound of the organ is fighting with the vocals, which gives them a sort of gurgling effect.
- I liked the balance at the beginning, but towards the middle, I found myself reaching for the volume knob. So... something about the mix.
Anyway, really pleasant listen.

Andi, TuneMonger and David...I am encouraged by your thoughts and comments....and thanks David for your "minor Nits" comments they are really helpful...I wondered if anyone would catch the skewing on the vocal track...as per my recordings these days, I'm still pulling vocals off of older recordings and on this one I could not clean up the vocals very well...it might be because there were multiple harmony tracks on the master record to rip into one vocal track...not sure I can fix it but I think I'll try since you caught it David...thanks for listening with good ears...I appreciate it.

So sorry for your loss, Dan, but it sounds like there was much to gain from your Uncle Ed. You always manage to create inspirational melodies. Such a fine production and the vocals are outstanding.

Really pretty tune . . . lovely, lovely harmonies that just pull at the ear. Terrific vocal on this as well. I’m generally not a Christian Rock listener, but this begs for listen after listen. It’s that good. Outstanding!
And love that key change!
All my best,
Deej

42!! Wow quite a family. May they all rest in peace.
I'm not religious man so I won't comment on the story or lyrics. The song is well delivered and I believe it captures the message you're trying to deliver.
