This is a phenomenal piece. Musically seductive and lyrically poignant. The production is out of this world. What a talent you are my friend. It is sorrowful that we have to write songs like this.

Misha,

Really powerful stuff with your customary creativity in the arrangement. A deep sadness layered throughout that pulls emotionally. Excellent production! Stunning is the right word for it.

All my best to you,

Deej

A powerful expression of grief and shock, Misha. Despite the many historical precedents, it is still almost impossible to comprehend how one so called 'man' can be responsible for so much misery and destruction.
Regards,
Leon

This song might be played when we are watching the news every day.
It's so near to us and more and more refugees are coming in every day.

It's a good song, you sing it very well, although the end is terrible.
We can only hope for the best.

You well captured the chaos and horror of the war and yet the hope of the Ukrainians. That alone is a great song production achievement.

The juxtaposition of the singing children with the sounds of weaponry says it all. In your face? Certainly and that's where it should be.

And yes, people will spit on his grave! Hopefully throughout eternity.

Your vocal is soulful and it must have been a hard one to get through.

And how you create a cohesive mix out of that many tracks is a wonder to us!

Wow! That is outstanding.

There are a couple of dissonances at the end of a phrase that kind of seem to hint at something menacing. And very effective use of Dynamics in the bridge.

The ending. Oh my god!

It is such a sad situation going on in the Ukraine. So much devastation on innocent people.

Loved your song. Super vocal and lyric. Very cool instrumentation and loved your processing on the vocal.. Well done

Hi, Misha !

I share the opinion of all the
others that have commented here !

What a tragedy, how much wickedness
does there have to be in our world !
I also consider this tune very strong,
filmatic and tributional !

Let us just hope that this nightmare
will end soon and that Ucranians could
start to live again, peace if you please !
