"I dreamed I would find you upon this old stone wall
And we would sit together for hours I recall
Come on down but the wall is too high
I’ll help you down but you just have to try
And over on the dirt road we will walk
I could listen for hours when you talk"
Wow ...
Great lyric and your vocal is top bar -- emotive and fitting so well in the mix.
Love the band mashup that is very reminiscent of Lou Reed, a good thing.
We get that the coffee house ship has sailed but, man, we can hear you and the Waifs at the City Winery!
Most enjoyable!

Hi, Bob. Cool sound. As usual, poetic and evocative write. The simple chorus works great for me! Love it.

Bob,
Your songs always shine.
As I said on Soundcloud, I absolutely love how you can create such wonderful impressionistic imagery using words. That's such a great skill.
Music writing and presenting at it's best.

Hi Bob, I just listened to your song, here's my feedback. Technical feedback: - Interesting combination of Realtracks. I didn't expect these synthesizers to go with the guitars, but they certainly do. Good job
- Good production, wide and open mix
Artistic feedback: - Interesting and a bit mystic lyrics. I like that a lot
- The choice of instruments and the way you arranged them support the song perfectly. Well done!

Reading your list, I thought, "Interesting combination." They work together nicely, yet still retain your folk feel.

Great opening lines!
