Hi Bob ...
Definitely the best/favorite I've heard from you in quite some time ... possibly ever.
My take is a Dylan lyric performed by the Byrds. Can't get much better than that for a throwback in time to that era. You have one of the best unique sounds I think I've ever heard. After two words, there's no doubt it's Bob Dean at the mic. And the backing tracks and styles are always the best for the lyric. Simply awesome! Always love your work!!!
Alan

Bob, your lyrics are always top notch, and this song is no exception.
I like the melody and the syncopation.
Excellent work!

Bob,
Excellent.
A solid write. Excellent lyric and a terrific upbeat groove and good melody.
You always make BIAB sound like Robert Dean's Band. So Good.
And a solid mix.
You are an artist.

I like the song and your lyrics. A lot.
Your voice reminds me a bit of the Waterboys, I like it.
Your mix sounds a bit bright, I think a couple dB more bass would make it sound more balanced.

The chorus is very Springsteen.
Your voice suits this arrangement.

Very nice poetry again, really enjoyed the images of day/night and sun/moon. Catchy chorus using the famous chord structure. The band sounds nicely light, good singing in the higher register.

Hi Bob,
Man, what a great write! I wish I had a fraction of your skills in that department.
Love the vocal and mix also.
One of your best!
