Thanks! smile

What caught my attention almost as much as the vocals is the prosody between the lyric and the melody. This is such a soft, gentle tune - and the lyric supports that in spades. The image of dragonflies is airy and whispy, and you capture that so vividly.
I'm glad the lyrics work.

It probably helps that the lyrics are written last, after the melody has already been worked out. I'll play the melody back with the singer performing "La" on each syllable, and try to figure out they're trying to say.

The arrangement is relatively simple (though not simple to create as good as you have), and that keeps the emphasis on the grace of the song. In other words, a fabulous mix with the balances spot on.
Thanks for that!

It feels like cheating not to add a lot of additional elements to the song, but sometimes it just works out that the arrangement doesn't seem to need much more. So I'll hold off adding an english horn part until the next song. wink

As soon as you're feeling better, take a bow.
I appreciate the kind words!

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