Hi, Dan. Pretty song, nice singing. It's cool to be able to set a song to a different style and see how it work out. In this case, it works out quite nicely.

Dan,
What a meaningful and true sentiment in this song that I wholeheartedly say a big amen to! There are so many beautiful little touches in this it's hard to appreciate it all! To start with, the vocals are stellar as usual with your songs! The background vocals and repeats are certainly pro caliber! The work on the Genos is very impressive! The sax is very convincing and sounds wonderful! The guitarist parts are played in fine fashion and fit nicely!
It's another great sounding song that is worthy of many listens!
Thanks, T

Fantastic song Dan. Great sound all the way around. I thought the writing was terrific, a great example of taking a single idea and developing into a wonderful song. Your production skills are on full display with this one, and it really came out well. I underline Torrey's first sentence, and you did a great job of putting it into song - thanks!

I still hear a slight disco vibe, but I think the BIAB style you chose fits the song quite well. And your vocals are good anyway

Dan, I believe that you could sing in any music genre.
As usual great vocal, instrumentation, mix, and message.

Firesong,
Such a smooth vocal, and I like the style change up here very much. Very good write! This one will go over very well within its genre. Like that little bit of sax you have going on—very cool. Well done!
Best regards,
Deej

Dani, David, Torrey, Brad, Brian, Mario and Deej...I want to express my deep thanks to all of you guys for sharing your thoughts and comments...you guys are some of my favorite artists on the forum and your opinions encourage me greatly as a writer and performer...I know the genre I write in is not appealing to everyone but stylistically I appreciate varied styles and try to compose tunes for all of them...you guys along with others on the forum are really Band in Box heroes to me! Dan

You've got oodles of talent. Where it comes from is another matter (to me, at least), but, howsoever you may have received it, you have it. Bravo.

Enjoyed the overall sound and feel of the song. But more than that a good question for all of us. Can you see Jesus in me? what a great reminder for the new year. Thank you.

Y’all blend very well and we hear the joy of that partnership in there.  It has an 80’s kind of pop light jazz feel to it with the sax, which sounds great via your Genos. Nice choice for the session folks and an excellent mix. Another fine updated song that shows the magic of BiaB in talented hands! J&B

Hi Dan - and everyone else on the recording:
What a pretty song and performed with equally wonderful voices. Dan, you have a wonderfully rtrue and sioft voice that fills the air with joyful listening. There's so much to like about this - I think Torrey touch on all those points so concisely.
You never disappoint, my friend. Wishing you everything good.
