Janne, wow, so glad you liked it! Have no illusions about making "hits", but it's rewarding to think this song can be appreciated internationally. I do love these lyrics...

Great open/airy mix that sounds excellent on our large KALI monitors. If you get a chance what was the mastering chain? Kudos! J&B

Janice and Budy, why, THANK YOU! Now I'm curious about how you could know what's in an unpublished book, but I digress...I do love these lyrics, and find them relatable even though I've never been in that situation. But the whole exercise of trying your best to be understood, and failing, is perhaps universal to our existence. Know it is to mine. Let's see...the mastering chain was Waves Abbey Road TG Mastering Chain on the master track of Studio One, and then fine tuning and adjusting the exported Studio One mix for loudness in IK's Lurrsen Mastering Console. Have custom presets that I use as a starting point for both TG and Lurrsen. Though I have two chains, the touch is light in both. Glad ya'll enjoyed it!
