Hi Robert and Scott
I loved the verses of the song and could feel the isolation, cold and danger of the journey. However, I found the sections 'Trust to luck boys trust to luck ...' to be quite disorientating in a tempo/beat sense (did you intend to create this stark difference), and only the second time with the drum accompanying did I feel it tie into the verses. In saying this though, this section did have a very 'other-worldly' feel to it.
You have a knack of creating a feel with the music that supports the theme in the lyrics.
Andrew
