Laurent,
Great song
Super groove
Sad but oh so true lyrics
Great mix.
FWIW - I didn't care for the synth vocal, but that is only my opinion and others may not agree.
However it didn't really detract to much from this song. Thank you Mario for your kind comments. The problem is that the synthesizers sing in tune and I don't! Laurent Cool production. The type of song that makes you sit back and think a little. I also hear some Doobies in there. By the way, neat video too.
Brad Thank you Brad for your comments. laurent

Hey Laurent, a very enjoyable listen.
I hear Michael McDonald in the vocals. But the funny thing is that I don't like McDonald's voice that much but I like this!
I also get a smooth jazz vibe here.
Also, GREAT work on the guitar.

Also, GREAT work on the guitar. Thanks Bass Thumper. I hadn't thought of Michael McDonald's voice. I know him a little from What a Fool Believes with the Doobie Brothers. I lowered Hayden's formants a little to make his voice a little deeper. I'm glad you don't like it anymore though. We therefore arrive at the following equation: hayden - 3formant= Michael McDonald.

Even though it's not my favorite genre, I enjoyed listening to it because you supported the message of the song very well with your arrangement and vocals and everything else.
It is consistent in itself (hope this phrase makes sense in English).
Well done.

Well done. Thank you B.D.Thomas for the comments. I designed the lyrics based on what the music evoked in me. Laurent

Hello Laurent,
What else can I say than everyone else wrote before me?
A very beautiful song, very sensitive lyrics, good rhythm, excellent solo and good singing.
But I had a wish about how the phrase "nothing remains" is sung and I would like it to be sung ;-)
The vocals go down every time on 'remain', where I would like them to go up and bring in a little more emotion there.
But I know, it's a matter of taste...
I enjoyed it much,
Hans

Hans Thanks Hans for the comments. To be honest, I haven't thought about this detail. I thought of it as if without thinking about another option. Laurent
