Ray,

Really liked Alison’s vocal on this . . . and the production is stellar. I might have been tempted to take a bit more off the reverb and/or delay . . . but maybe not. I like the melody and melodic changes throughout. Overall, an engaging tune. Nice work on the video as well. Well done!

All my best,

Deej

Thanks for preparing the video and posting it. You and Alison brought a simple instrumental to life.

This is SO beautiful. It's so melodic, it just carries one from note to note. Stunning lyrics, really great interpretation. Hats off to all three of you; what a genuinely beautiful song you have created.

Wow. I really enjoyed how this song went from a wonderful instrumental to this amazing song (and cool video). Allison has such an enjoyable voice. Hats off to all of you for this collaborative effort.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Cool Collab.

The mix is superb. Pianos! Steels! Nice vocals!

The melody and the lyrics gave this a feel-and-sound of a theme song to a 60's "mod" movie.

ALISON did an excellent job...

Cool song you guys have put together here.
Good arrangement and good production in general, I would probably put less reverb on the vocals (which are beautiful), but I wouldn't worry to much about it.
It reminds me of another song, but I can't quite place it.

Thanks Deej,
The reverb was up n down, on & off. It'd needed on the bvox - it helps to push them back and give an older country feel - I hope.

Alan,
the melody & arrangement spoke words in my head. I merely did the dental probe thing and Alison made it real.

Than you Floyd,
I was itching to play on this but had nothing to offer that would improve on Alan's selected real tracks.

Thanks B.D.,
Both Alison & Alan were happy with the reverb so left it. The difference between dry & wet can be very small.

Thanks, Elliot. That chord pattern was pretty much "figure it out as you". Thanks for the listen and comments.
