Soothing, relaxing... Guitar touch and tone is excellent.
I especially liked the key change, and the tempo change outro.
Very tastefully done.

Yes, me too!. Considering it cost under $500, I'm amazed at the quality and it's such a joy to play.

Lots to like about this composition.

Very soothing, peaceful, and mixed really nicely. Great balance throughout.

Key change was a nice touch.

Just plain beautiful!

Love that guitar tone plus it was played to perfection!

Great piano and strings. Outstanding mix!

I liked the key change.

A very peaceful composition.

Loved it.


Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!

GhostGum,

Couldn’t help but not listen to this one given my love and fascination with all things Italian. This is a beautiful melody and composition, wonderfully mixed. So soft and pretty on the ears.

Kindest regards,

Deej

Lovely. One of those minor chords gives me that sentimental back-of-the-eyeball feeling.

As Nigel said, it's got that "movie soundtrack" sound - rich and full.

Nice instrumentation - a big and full sound, while staying clear and focused.

Lovely melody, well played on all the instruments. The guitar is especially nice! smile

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

What a beautiful guitar melody. So magically relaxing. The kind of music that plays to the inside of us all. Well done all around, Brian.


Enjoy whatever happens!

My mind's eye created a vision of a dancing couple moving around the dance floor propelled by the music.

Well done.
