The breathiness in the singer's voice adds haunting authenticity, every word is filled with suffering, the drowning is almost tangible, love the part where the music stops and only the singer's breath can be heard. "The silence grows where your laughter lived/And I’m drowning in what remains" is touching poetry. And the melody in its sadness is completely to my taste.

The biggest problem with this song is that it shows how emotionally lame my songs really are, can't compete with your competency in creating emotional charge wink

Thank you, Janne, for your (as always) very detailed feedback [Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]
It's really helpful to get an idea of what works best for the audience and why.

Regarding your last paragraph: there is no competition in art.
Every song makes this world a better place.
That's what it's all about.
And, needless to say, I like your songs smile
