Very cool. It has a certain Neil Young feel to it in the quality of the vocals as well as the music. Especially reminiscent of his early stuff with Crazy Horse.

Nice one.

Ah, a fun relaxing song so well done. Cool change at 1:16 and later. Really good song. Love the BGVs, and your vocal is just perfect. Excellent choice of instruments. That synth was a big plus --subtle, but so effective.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Brian,

First off, really like the feel and sound you’ve given this with the percussion . . . really fits the song. Nice vocal . . . would have liked to read the lyrics, though they are pretty clear within the song. Excellent BGV harmonies—Beatles like. Actually, a lot of this reminds me of a Beatles tune, something Lennon might do. Cool strings as well. Like this one a lot! Excellent work!

Hi, Brian.

Nothing new to add that hasn't already been said.

Mellow song, nice vocals, pretty strings and BGVs.

I enjoyed listening! laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Geez, this sounds like a Neil Young deep track. Very masterful composition and performance. Love the BGVs as they float "Home" out of the key and then back again. First class all the way!

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Very good song to start out the new year. I agree, it does have quite a Beatles sound to it - yet still original. Great mix, Brian.

Really enjoyed listening to this. It's the kind of song I can imagine Neil Young singing.

Hi Brian,

Wonderful song and vocals, lovely melody and interesting chord progression!
I had the same feeling as others here; Neil Young with an early Beatle-Background choir.
I liked it all a lot.
Very well done on the acoustic!
