Really nice mix Hans. Love how the song started. Very inviting. I am constantly remixing my older songs. The more we do this the better we get. Lovely song.. Well done..

Hi Bob, Anne-Marie and Scott,
Thanks so much for your nice replies on this song.
Hi Bob, I didn't have the feeling myself, these were my best vocals. But that's because I had to sing it in a sad way.
Sometimes that turned out better than expected. Thanks!
Hoi Anne-Marie, It's very nice you like the song and the (bg-) vocals too!
Soon we start a song together, as promised. I think of it all the time.
Hi Scott, Thanks too for your nice words. Glad you liked it!
I saw on the forum there are many more collegues remixing older songs. And I can understand why!
You are very right on that we can get better the more we try, or remix or whatever.
Very nice day,
Hans

This is a powerful song in every way. The poignant lyric was one for which we both could relate.
Your vocals sounded so soulful and heartfelt.
And the RT/RD choices were excellent, very supportive and well mixed.
You said to floyd, "And, although I can speak very easily about all sorts of issues, I noticed in these situations my head was filled with all kinds of thoughts, but I couldn't say much. "
But with this song and that statement you have said a lot and have done it very eloquently.
Outstanding,
J&B

Hans...really nice mix and great band you put together...I like the melody and the solo instruments you put together...very cohesive writing and production...as for the subject, there could not be anything more relevant for writing or discussing...obviously we are all going to spend a lot more time dead than alive and whether we are watching someone we love leave or are contemplating our own demise...we have to ask ourselves "what's next?"...you have commented to me on a few of my songs that you are not a person of faith (I took that to mean you did not believe in God) and if that is true then you have captured perfectly the dilemma of not having faith...that is hopelessness, sadness, despair and that endless question "what's next?"...I have found that faith renders those things null and void for the person that's leaving and the person that is left behind...this is just a thought, not a debate...each person is free to hold or not to hold such a belief…but the ramifications of having faith or not certainly are relevant to all of us and worthy of a song...(it's actually a primary reason I write songs)...nonetheless, this is a very well done composition!
