Scott,

Good music doesn't need to be further defined, in my opinion. If it's a great sound, what difference doies it make how you define it after that. Goos speaks fore itsself.

And this is indeed good music. I really enjoyed the strong percussion - it drives the song all the way. All those little background treats along the way were terrific!

I enjoyed this very much!

Alan

I enjoyed the lead and backing vocals, and the melodic jump when you sang "or turn around."

Also, unexpected chord changes kept it interesting throughout. Very nicely done!

Bob, thanks for stopping by for a listen and leaving a comment.

Something I didn't expect, but still refreshing change of style. Reminds me of British synth pop bands of 80's with strong vocalists. I surely would have liked this song already 40 years ago smile

Lyrically and melodically interesting, the bridge is especially nice, there's something divine and eternal in "I am here". And the chord progression sounds original, still in your trademark style.

Very good use of BIAB instruments that support your powerful voice and those nice harmonies. I like how you handle those low notes and how the higher notes sound so intensive.

Your mix of 60s, 70s, and 80s and some BIAB makes for good original music
That seems label enough

Very much enjoyed

I like it

Scott,

The combination of synth bass and synth drums is fantastic.
It's true that it's not used much these days, but it really gives this song a special originality.
And your powerful vocals on this song are great too.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

I’m esp drawn to melodies that are economical—fewer notes, simple but effective. That shows me a certain mastery and confidence. In this case, the first two notes in your lyric lines immediately hooked me. And the “I am here” phrase is really good. To top it off, the vocal delivery is wonderful. Only change I’d make—I didn’t like the electronic drums, I’d go with something more acoustic…but I think that’s what you were after—blending the 60s sound with a more modern touch. Anyway, excellent—thoroughly enjoyed it!!
