< Your lyrics are always so creative and meaningful.
Thanks, Marty! You are probably, the kindest, most positive member of the forum. A good way to go through life.

<beautiful lyrics. and emotion. Only idea was maybe double the vocs in parts of the song
I was thinking of you as I was editing this song. I thought, "Muso is gonna tell me the chorus needs doubling (or harmonies) and he'd be absolutely right." I was just being a cheap Charlie when I ordered the vocals. I have a Waves Doubler but it sounds robotic to me and I do not like it at all. Yet many people swear by it.

< A stripped down song reveals the true talent of the composer
Thanks, Al, I loved what you wrote above. If I had your mixing skills, the first version would have been good, too.

< Janice said she could imagine the original version at the beginning of a wonderful movie with the acoustic version played at the end of the movie as the credits roll by >
I couldn't ask for a better review! Reading this made my day! Thanks so much, Janice and Bud!

TM, Great job, especially lyrically and vocally. This could be an anthem for Ukraine.

I enjoyed both versions.

< This is a great and beautiful tune...the chorus is really strong and effective! >
Thanks, Torrey! I was happy with the verse from the start but I kept trying with no success to write a better chorus. Sometimes with writing, I lose all perspective. So glad you like it!

< Have you thought about starting simpler acoustic and progressing to full orchestration? >
Misha, I think that's a brilliant idea, I love it! Now I'm going to be up all night. ; )

Beautiful poignant song, both musically and lyrically.
I prefer the acoustic version.
The vocal is superb!

Bob,
This is a lovely arrangement of the song . . . and my, that vocal is so full and rich--outstanding. Like this version very much--agree it really puts the lyric (and vocal) front an center, which makes it very compelling and engaging. Wonderful!
All my best to you,
Deej

Lovely song. Acoustic was perfect for your tender vocal. I got a Josh Groban vibe too. Really well done...

You say you did a "quick acoustic version", but it clocks it at over 5 minutes with a slow... Oh, wait.  The sparse setting works nicely here. You've got a bit of a Rufus Wainwright vocal here. Still an excellent song.
