Lovely song and production.
Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

B.D.Thomas, Neat tune. Rich arrangement, but is not busy. Robo girl sounds very realistic. Very clean production. Listens well. Can't help it, but couple of twists do remind me of Radiohead  Thank you for sharing. Misha. Thank you Misha for your kind words. The Radiohead feel probably comes from the fact that I love replacing the last chord of a progression with the minor chord of the penultimate chord (if it was a major chord). It's something Radiohead often do too. I didn't know this until someone pointed it out to me. Needless to say, I'm now a Radiohead fan (didn't listen to any of their stuff before).

From the intro on the song reminds me of darker ABBA songs, especially piano parts and even Natalie sounds like those ABBA ladies. Okay, those heavy guitars break the illusion and it is difficult to get to the right mood. But this is distinctly your style, from soft to very dramatic and back, and I have to admit that those guitars sound great, very good mix! And you certainly know how to get the most out of Natalie, to make her sound like she really means every word, especially "a fool", very impressive.
Janne Thank you, Janne, for listening and for your detailed feedback. I really appreciate it. And you're right, I love (and have always loved) dramatic changes in dynamics, even if it might not always be the best thing to support the song.

Brian...I loved your love song...great production work...I always like the way you layer instruments in/out of your arrangements...you put a lot of thought into your song production (I can tell) and a lot of work as well...Natalie sounds great and her vocal flows nicely...I'm jealous of your piano chops and that Bosendorfer...it's just another great piece of music from you! Thanks Dan for your kind and detailed feedback. You're right, I put a lot of thought into the production, but every minute I spend there saves hours of mixing and/or re-arranging work, so the song wasn't actually that much work at all. Oh, and the Bosendorfer 290 is a virtual piano (see Ivory II Grand Pianos ). I wouldn't be worthy of playing a real Bosendorfer

Really cool song. Loved the production and mix. The drums were so crisp. Awesome increase in energy with the guitars and panning. The vocaloid technology is incredible. It just blows my mind. Really well done. Thanks Scott for listening and your positive feedback. Much appreciated!

Great production on this, B.D.
The vocal has a deadpan quality that fits well into the song.
Clever stuff.
