Marty, what an excellent song all the way around. I loved the overall idea, and the way you used words to put across that idea ... just great. The production is absolutely superb. Your bass is always so solid and Dave and Shigeki were masterful with what they put on here. The overall tune just blows my mind. Really, really good!!

Marty, this is probably the best song I've heard from you - wow :-) Such a catchy tune, it really sticks with you! Congratulations also to your fellow collaborators, Dave and Shigeki!!! What a brilliant, brilliant song. Positive and melodious - your trademark :-) Happy (belated) Birthday - hope you enjoyed every minute of it, as I enjoyed this song!!!

Superb collaboration. You all did a great job on the song.

Magical is definitely the word for how well this collaboration worked.

Your performances, Dave's, Shigeki's and the BiaB session crew all melded into a lovely outcome.

And a fine audio and video production ... no surprises there!

And congrats to you and Barb! We’re just a few years behind you. Ain’t love grand!

Thanks, Janice & Bud, Yes, it is and thanks for spreading the love.

There are pros in "the biz" like you and your team; and then there is everyone else.

Keep these coming man.

Thanks, Steve. You're productions are also getting so darn good. Enjoying every one.

Thank you, Scott. You're right, I've come to expect Dave to come up with something that is far better than I imagined, and Shigeki is top-notch in coming up with the perfect score, and he also pleasantly surprised me how good this one turned out.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Marty, Dave & Shigeki
A very successful collaboration & reincarnation!
Big sound, yet very gentle. Wonderful set of lyrics & vocals. Dave makes everything better smile
Shigeki Adachi took it to another dimension. Very cool stuff. Mixed very well, and that can be quite challenging with cross genre instruments and feel. Cool stuff! Nice video imagery Thank you for sharing.

P.S. Marty, HAPPY BIRTHADY! Live long and prosper!

Marty,

You nailed it in your description! It's ok to get input from others but in the end you have to go with your gut feelings for a tune and make it uniquely yours! Love the melody flowing through this! Dave's solo was a good one and gave me in feel of a Gordon Lightfoot tune for some reason!
Excellent work here as usual! I always enjoy and appreciate your work! Thanks, TB

Lovely song Marty. So nice to have Shigeki collab with you and Dave. The strings were an awesome add to the song. Super vocal lyric and Daves Guitar was perfect for the song. Really well done.
