A fine write with the two brief life stories leading nicely to that rising chorus... and all, of course, in an excellent arrangement and mix.
A top shelf partnership with a talented writer I don`t think I`ve heard before.

Thanks, Robert (I have a couple dozen co-writes with Bill, so there will be more coming)

Your vocals are so so good. You are the storyteller many would pay to hear. Did I misunderstand your word "long" in the post. Apology, in all its length, is accepted, if not. hehe Writing a song from lyrics? That, in my experience, is a much more difficult process, but WOW you did your usual you and the result is awesome.


Thanks, Marty!!!

I like where you took us with the melody in the verse, which let to the satisfying resolution in the chorus.

Primo!

Your vocals, beautiful melody and band are a perfect match for Bill’s lyric.

The arrangement and mix are stellar.

Again, your soulful vocals paint the picture so well and make us truly feel the poignancy in these stories.

Great collab!

The lyrics are top notch; you both did a fantastic job on them.

As usual your vocal and mix were outstanding.

Loved both verses!
