Nicely done. I'll echo the previous comments. So much here to like.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Andi,
There's little left to add to the glowing comments already posted. I agree with what everyone said. It's excellent in every way - powerful, dramatic, well-arranged and produced, and perfectly executed. This is one of the best songs I've heard on the forum in quite a while. Congrats to everyone involved!
Merry Christmas to all of you.

Well, this is pretty close to perfection. Wish I had THIS "band in a box". Ha! A lot going on musically, but no wasted effort, just a steady build to a big finish. Fantastic job all! Hi Ron That's the good thing about BiaB: You not only get the unique program but also get to know excellent musicians in the forum. And BiaB in combination with great musicians brings even better results. Many thanks for your feedback I appreciate it very much Many greetings Andi ;-)

A fairly sparse arrangement in the verses and the chorus aren't overloaded but with those skilled players you've elegant sufficiency all the way through.
BIAB holds it head up well too.
Power ballad for the win. Hi Ray Thanks for your great feedback I appreciate it very much Many greetings Andi ;-)

Hi Andi,
Wow, what a great and powerful song!
Vocals, guitars, strings, then the upward modulation towards the end all help build the energy to a crescendo.
Excellent writing and production.

Hi Andi,
This is just about as good as it gets I think.
Great songwriting, and top notch performances from everyone involved.
Excellent! Hi Dave Many thanks for this great compliment That will make everyone involved very happy You know yourself, making music together with others is the most beautiful thing there is. And the songs just get better when you play them with other musicians. BiaB is the perfect tool to replace the missing musicians. Thank you very much for your feedback. I really appreciate it. Many greetings Andi ;-)

I think it's a great testament to BIAB that it brings together musicians from all over the world and they sound like a band that has never done anything else.
Great work from all 5 of you.
I take my virtual hat off to you guys! Hi Brian The fact that you describe everything together as the interaction of a real band is of course a great compliment. Thanks for your very nice feedback Many greetings Andi ;-)
