What's On Your Mind Been quite a while since I posted one. Leon -lyric and vocals As usual I played guitars.

Was it something that I failed to do? Somehow we’ve got to make a brand new start Cause I can’t bear the thought of losing you Chorus Oh, but lately I don’t know what’s on your mind Lately I don’t know what’s on your mind

That's really cool. As usual there's an aggressive, spikey resonance in Leo's vocal but it sits well with this song and the sympathetic backing plus fab solo. Fabulous song chaps.

Peter and Leon. Really nice sounding song and well produced "realized" and "vocalized". I like that rhyme.

Hi, Peter and Leon. Laid back folk sound, with pleasant vocals to match. Nice write. Catchy chorus, guitar solo is in the right places and does what it should. Harmonies add weight to the final verse and chorus. Good listen!

Peter, Beautiful melody! And the chorus is quite distinct from the verse, I appreciate. Nice work, and the steel guitar solo's not bad either! At 2:00, I wasn't expecting the drums to be removed. It's even better that they're back in force at 2:22, original! And the pads add that melancholy touch. Nice touch, indeed

nice to hear Leon again. Been too long. good write. A really nice vocal.
A just-right production. Good pacing. Nice change-up at the bridge. Tasty guitar.
A velvety mix.

Wistful and wonderful. A very fragile sentiment perfectly captured in song. Love everything about the songcraft here. The overdriven outro is quite a lovely counterpoint, though it could have a longer/softer fade. Nice work, guys!

Very nice song. I enjoyed the write and the vocals and guitar work were very good too. It may have just been me, but I thought I could hear a lot of background noise in the mic.

Peter and Leon,
If I had heard this in a record store I would have purchased it right then and there! This is so good in so many ways. Great vocal, lyrics, guitar licks, backing band, mix, etc Loved it

YES! Missed you, Leon. This is a good song, well written, well sung, well developed and with some magnificent guitar. Love the soft feel of it all, Peter. Like Mario said, "If I had heard this in a record store I would have purchased it right then and there!" Heck, if I thought music stores would have something this good, I'd visit --and certainly buy the whole album.
What a great opening lyric: "Once upon a time I could read you like a book Didn’t have to move your lips You could say it with a look" that grabs your attention and let's you know you're in for some verbal pleasure. (sheesh, that's an odd way of saying it) Loved the lyrics.

I love the slightly sad story and the way you present it. The acoustic bridge adds a lot to the song. Great idea!

It's good to hear one from you two again.
I like the gentle folk feel. Vocal fits perfectly. Nice harmony too. Guitar fills and solo are inspired. Well done!
