That starts off really nicely. What delicious harmony.
Love this.

Dan,
This is an excellent production. I agree, Kevin's vocal is a perfect fit for this piece.
Nice work as always.

Dan, stellar as always. Super vocal arrangement, and the different voices blend to great effect. Love the BiaB baritone and other instrument choices on this. Mix is great, too. You make this look SO easy!! Great song.

Dan, you know that I love your music This is one of your best. Great harmonies and lead vocal - they sounded so real As always the perfect backing band and mix. Outstanding message in those lyrics Loved it
Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!

Dan,
You've got a radio ready hit here! You have totally impressed me with how you've mastered this synth vocal stuff so quickly! Again, you have written a soul edifying track that speaks tons to anyone who gives this a spin! I feel you made a lot of great instrumentation choices here! Be encouraged brother, you are making a difference in this world!
Thanks, TB

Dan,
Your writes are always solid. Add this to that list. You are just as solid with your production and use of BIAB. Solid.
And catchy.

Hi Dan,
A strong write, and man, those vocals sound great! Love the harmonies in particular.
Good stuff, enjoyed.

Duh. Jesus is everywhere, right? Haha I like (with a little concern) how you are personifying these synths. Still you get along so well with them. I love this whole production. Outstanding mix. Those harmonies are crafted by a master craftsman. Glad you gave them an a cappella (almost) space. Another terrific composition and production, Dan. Always inspirational.

If you hadn't told me, with a superficial listen, I would not have picked the vox out as synth created. When listening closely, there are a few lyrical phrasings that give it away but they are very minor. IMO, the vocals do a great job bringing life to your songs, Dan! Continue praising the Lord as well as you do cuz I think we need it more than ever these days!

Wonderful contemporary gospel sound. Rich harmonies! I like that acapella part with percussion only. Strong chord/harmony to end the song.

Hi, Dan.
Hayden gives an excellent performance here, and the arrangement works really well.
Nicely done!

Really good, I particularly like the harmonies. Nice to listen to and very catchy. It's easy to imagine listening to it on the radio, excellent production.

The acapella part was an excellent idea that was very well executed indeed. It must take the patience of Job  to work out those harmony parts ... especially the humanizing aspects of it. Nice mix --- the drums sounded clean and "popping" in the mix. Well done all around and as you said, "music at its best is full of Harmony...and so is life." We could not agree more! J&B
