Ray Nicely done. Quite an interesting song, well produced and written. Janice as always sounds great and elevates any production. A song that gets better with each play.

Hi, Ray. Interesting tune - Ron mentioned "gliding", and I'm too lazy to figure out it's something chromatic or just sliding around with her voice. But it's very ear catching, which is good. Nothing useful to suggest other: this doesn't sound like anything else, which is also good.  Hi RayC and the Team,
Splendid composition. I like listening to Janice sing in a different style. It's very airy and pleasant. The video is well produced and fits perfectly into the composition. Well done. I appreciated.
Jani Thanks for mentioning my vocal! And thanks to Ray for asking me to participate. Janice

Cool opening. Great sounding drums. Nice Bass. Organ, too... Janice sounds great (of course). Sits in the mix Perfectly. habits/rabbits. nice. Such an Interesting melody. My ear has to chase it through the whole song. It is a pleasant experience. Superb mix.

Ray + Janice & Bud, This is pretty complex and creative piece of music. A+ for composition. This was probably quite a tricky gig for Janice, but she pulled it off with grace. Stellar vocals! Cool blend of instruments and style fusion. Mellotron and classical guitar sounds fresh. Bass is excellent, but that is expected  Two spins, super drive! Drums sound a bit on high side of EQ to my ears (I know it's DONE), otherwise mix sounds rich. Good one and thank you for sharing. Misha.

Ray, you are a multi-talented musician. Janice is a fantastic singer. So when I saw you two together I knew I was in for some outstanding ear candy. And I was right. Excellent song and mix. Thank you Mario! J&B

Hey All,
This is quite an outstanding production and I'm suitably impressed. But even if I was buck naked and not wearing a suit I would still be impressed that's how good it is. Lots of very clever musicianship and production went into this puppy, and it's a whole lot of fun from everyone involved. It's obvious that a ton of effort went into this too but I'm telling you it paid off. This is a real showstopper. Great job. Arty and psychedelic in appropriate measures. But don't you dare show up at Eurovision to try and stop us though and claim the gold because we will declare war!!!

It's good to have you back. You were noticeably absent.
Complex piece (at least it sounds so to this simpleton). All the parts work well together. I like the melody. I enjoyed this and listened a few times. Janice voice is the icing on this seven-layer cake. Thanks a bunch, Scott. Ray and I enjoy working together and this project was no exception. And like you, Bud and I are happy to see Ray back! 😊 Janice

Ray, Janice & Bud,
An absolutely great piece of music... Top, top shelf stuff.
Janice nails a stunning vocal once again.
Loved everything about this one. A great combination of talent.
Bob Thank you Bob! Janice Ray Nicely done. Quite an interesting song, well produced and written. Janice as always sounds great and elevates any production. A song that gets better with each play.
Peter Thanks Peter. That is most kind! Janice

Hi Ray and Janice,
Ray, I saw in your posts and try outs how you struggled 'how to please' Judith. I wrote some suggestions too. Although they were well-intentioned, there was a wink in my words. Therefore of course not serious for you. I understand that well. I will not cry.
But glad you're back and Judith is wrapped in a nice, intriguing song, well sung by Janice (of course). I had some thoughts about the melody. They were a bit like what Brain wrote in his post. I also read your answer to him, so that counts for me to. No need to response on that. I also liked the video. How did you do that part with that dwawn piano. Amazing! For me, Judith can be pleased with this song. I am at least. And the lyrics were just very good!
Hans

Thank you Misha, Normally I paste in Mellotron sections but this time decided to go the midi editor route as I had some good samples/VSTis to work with.

Hi Ray and Janice and Bud.
This is great listening. I loved the journey.
Janice, you have an amazing ability to own whatever genre you sing. You always sound 100% comfortable and fully committed to the lyrics, and you always take the listener on a wonderful musical ride. I greatly envy your ability. Bud's work with your vocals is seamless. The two of you together are truly a powerful musical duo.
Ray, just like everything you do, the song, its arrangement and production, and its presentation are outstanding. You've got my standing ovation!
All the very best, --Noel
