Robert & Scott,
Very creative tune. Super unusual structure, almost abstract, but works very well together. Ace lyrics and vocals. Mix is very good, with exception of acoustic guitar, which is quite a bit on a left side. Somewhat distracts from listening. But that of course is a matter of taste. Excellent effort and thank you for sharing.
Misha.
Thanks very much for all those positives, Misha. I often struggle with mix balances now due to hearing loss, but we always bounce ideas back and forth, so I think we agreed on that guitar placement.
Hi Robert and Scott,
Like most of the others say, it's a somewhat unusual song according to the instruments.
Your voice sounds very familiair and that means beautiful, fragile and strong (at the same time).
A surprise were the drums/ percussion. When I heard it in the first chorus I had two feelings: 'oh, very nice'for your vocals alone with them, and secondly 'no, it breaks down the subtlility of the song itself'. But at the end of the song my feelings were very positive. So that was a very good job and it made me learn to be patient with giving opinions...
And have I mentioned the lyrics. No, I didn't. It took me some time with my dictionary on my lap, so they musatbe beautiful too. At least they sound like that!
And Scott..., oh he can play so very well. I loved all he did. Didn't need to get patient on that ;-)
Probably my ears aren't that good like Misha's ears, but no accoustic was distracting me.
All in all, I really enjoyed your song!
Hans
Hans,
I`m glad this won you over...eventually. A dictionary? Really?- perhaps pasting my strange language into Google Translate would be easier?
Thanks for listening and commenting.
So good. I heard this yesterday thanks to Scott's FB post. Sounds even better today. Your lyrics are always the best, Robert. They evoke such strong visuals in the mind. Excellent vocals, especially enjoyed the call-and-response kind of thing. Scott, your guitar always has such expression that perfectly matches the feel and mood of the song.
Marty,
The chorus call/response wasn`t planned- I heard the possibility while doing the vocal demo and, as its a first, was fun to try.
I appreciate that you connected with the lyrics.
Hi Robert

Robert
