What can you say about Christiane's delivery - always flawless and perfect. Love Marty's bass and you deliver some of the best guitar tones around.

EXCELLENT!

Bob

Thanks, Bob!

Appreciate that, Peter! Yes, time flies indeed.

Very delicate and full of soul. Chris just sings this one right out of the park. And you just can't go wrong with Marty on bass. What a fantastic group of talented artist on one song.

So sorry to hear of your mother's passing. Wishing your family strength and healing. We've buried three of our children, so we can empathize.

A heartbreaking yet yet wonderful song. Congrats to all of you.

Best wishes,

Alan

Man, I can only imagine what it would be like having to bury a child! A parents worse nightmare.

Thanks for the kind words, Alan!

Dave, man this is so very good. Very sorry for your loss and I hope your heart is filled with great memories of your mother. Everyone did a great job here, so much talent on one recording. I sure liked the production and the effects on the vocal, as well that bass and guitar work.

Brad

We do remember the song well and it is even more beautiful now.
Whether it is our family or friends or animal companions that we have to say goodbye to, we do try hard to keep their memory alive.
This line says it perfectly:
“I will not forget you ever, darlin’, to keep the light of you in me.”

Chris’s heartfelt vocal performance and the haunting melody with your beautiful guitar solo are simply powerful.
Marty’s bass as always provides the perfect support.

We’re sorry for the loss of your Mother and we both know from experience what a difference it makes in one’s life.

Sublime ...

All the better that you have released this song
Chris brings so much emotion to this song.
And your guitar sets so many beautiful accents, especially your exceptionally beautiful guitar solo
the background track together with Marty is of course the basis for such a great song
I hope for you that the sadness will soon give way to joy.
Thank you for the great song
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Appreciate that, Andi, thanks!

I don't know what the original version sounded like, but this one is great.
Perfect arrangement, great guitar and bass, and of course Chris' vocals are the icing on the cake.
I love everything about your song [Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]

I think all of the older songs would sound better redone, I really didn't know much about mixing back when Chris and I first started working together. Plus we both have much better tools now. Normally if a song has already been released I wouldn't bother, but in this case we had never done a video for it, so perfect excuse smile

Best to you and your Dad.

Marty is the man! Thanks, Vic.

The performances of Dave, Chris and Marty bring smile to my face and tears into my eyes.

Really appreciate that, Janne!

Oh, and killer, killer guitar work. Stellar. First class, professional tune.

Sorry for your Dave. This is a really gorgeous song. Incredible vocal from Chris. Marty adds a very cool groove to the song. Your guitar never sounded better. Awesome playing. Boy does the tone just hits the sweet spot. Mix is perfect. Well done..
