Greg,
Lovely song, lovely melody. Just an excellent write and your vocal slays. Great song structure on the write as well. Wonderful specifics and terrific lines throughout. One of my favorites from you—just outstanding. Agree that ending is really well done!
My very humble regards,
Deej Thanks so much Deej!! I always love listening to your stuff!! Take care. Greg

Nice new song, Greg, great idea to use a city in the lyric. The youtube link led me to much of your other terrific material, and I ended up spending about two hours listening to it. What a pleasure! Can't say enough good things about your music. Will revisit for sure. So, much appreciated!!!! I'm always thrilled when someone spends their time listening through some of my many tracks!! Hard to get a lot of ears these days. I always love your stuff......creative and clever!! And I think you sang the heck out of your latest!! Take care. Greg

Hi Greg,
This is another top song from you and very well sung.
I particularly liked the outro with the BV's and Guitar.
Good guitar solo in the middle and at a nice loud volume.
Can't wait for your next song.
Best Regards
Nigel Thanks so much Nigel!! Listened to a real gem from you today!! Take care. Greg

Great write, well sung... I've said that about a lot of songs, but with you it's that much more.
All of this well done, but the harmonies are especially sweet at the end. I envy how natural your lyrics are!

Greg,
Very nice melody and chord progression!
It's a romantic and melancholic song.
When I hear it with your vocals, it touches my heart even more.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Greg,
First of all, your songs need to bumped to the top often because they are some of the best stuff presented here! Your vocals are always pro-level!
This one is a thing of beauty! Love every aspect of it from the wonderful vocal performace (and background vox) to instrument solo you selected! That little walk down section in the chorus is very effective!
It's another high-quality song Greg and I enjoyed it!
Thanks, Torrey

Hello Greg,
A very nice song, sang very laid back and still sounding so emotional.
I loked at al the posts here to see if I can add something that wasn't said.
I couldn't find one
I enjoyed your singing a lot in this song. It still sounds in my head and gives me a smile. Wow, ain't that a big compliment or not?
Hans Thanks for the listen and the kind words Hans!! You do a lot of cool stuff!! Take care. Greg

One of your best, no doubt about it. Wonderful. Wow - it's hit me harder than I thought it would, I have no idea why. But yes - absolutely brilliant in every way - singing, writing, lyrics, structure ... loved it. Well done. Thanks James!! Much appreciated!! Take care. Greg

Greg,
Killer.
Excellent write (of course).
Gorgeous vocals (of course).
Really nice arrangement/production (of course).
Good mix.
Nice ending...
Another HIT from the Greg Johnson Song Machine.
I always find myself singing your song after it finishes. The mark of DONE RIGHT.
Thank you my friend for that oh so kind review.....means a ton coming from you!!! Take care. Greg

A complete package very well done.
The only things that stopped me were the rhyme of
"Still not quite feelin’ like myself
Stores have costumes on the shelves"
BUT since you don't revisit that chorus lyric I think you can get away with it.
and the "nah nah nahs",
With such a good story I heard them as a missed opportunity.
Those things aside - it's a cracker.
Cheers

More quality writing from you Greg. I really liked everything about this. You set a standard that many should be proud to match. A big effort clearly went into every part of this. Excellent mix, clear vocals and the backing harmonies are perfectly placed. Every lyric sits perfectly right throughout the song, including your obvious decision towards the closing to introduce exception from having to have a perfect rhyming line, and cleverly using 'Nah-nah-nah-nah', clearly creating an inference to etc, etc, etc about Seattle.
Reminds me of your composition 'Sausalito' from several years back.
Again you proved that no out of tune screaming is needed to deliver quality music.
Another gem from you.

Greg,
I enjoyed everything about your song, arrangement, and vocals. Your piano part is rich and fits so well as the central element of the song. Glad you, like me, are back here posting.
