Vic...really nice song...great concept...I guess, you can't know anything farther than "as far as you know"...I always love the tracks you build and the instruments you choose...pretty melody well sung!

This is a lovely melancholy song.
We are fans of the "connect your own dots" approach in lyrics ... so we liked that. smile

The guitar and piano fit the dreamy feel of your vocals and the lyric very well.

Regarding the digital warping at :20 that Misha mentioned it is on the phrase “as far as I know” and then it is gone.

Well done!

Thank you Firesong.
"As far as I know" is a good answer when your wife asks you if you did what she asked.

Thank you for the listen J&B.
It must be my ears because I've listened there half a dozen times and can't hear it.
I think I'll have to redo that part.

Vic, IMHO this is your best to date.
Loved those lyrics and how your vocal expressed them: I could hear your pain.
Great backing band.
Outstanding mix.

Loved it.


Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!

Hi Mario.
Thanks again for your positive comments.
I sometimes worry about a song being my "best yet" and makes me wonder if the others came up to scratch.
But then, it's great to know I'm heading in the right direction. As far as I know. :-)

Vic
