Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment. And many thanks for listening to the both versions. I am really glad you like this tune. I am truly grateful to the members of my music circle and Yamaha teachers. I am always very encouraged by your kind words.
I am always impressed with your musical knowledge and the skills you have to bring that to fruition as beautiful music.
I listened and left a comment on both versions. You did a great job of making BIAB sound so good. But the live version is so wonderful. Your vocalist is excellent, and the backing tracks are so nice.
Shigeki, enjoyed both versions a lot. Really appreciated the touch on the piano lead over the RealTracks version, as well as the way the BiaB guitar soloist slid in.
The "live" version is very professional, and has great playing throughout.
Super song! A modern classic for sure...

We love a jazzy waltz and we love both versions. Hard to pick what we like best as the live with vocal is great as is the instrumental.
Well done x 2!

Wonderful music. The full band version is really well done. Cool bass. Love those strings. A very pleasant vocal. Sweet guitar. Excellent mix. Cool to hear the BIAB version. Nice piano. A smooth transition from BIAB to orchestra....

Shigeki Adachi, It is great of you to post both versions. Obviously, your circle of friends version is a winner. Tsuyoshi Tamada has a very pleasant voice and a talented vocalist. However, BIAB version provided a solid idea sketch. Excellent performance and mix. Thank you for sharing. Misha.

Hi Shigeki, this is such a warm, sweet melody. The layers of strings sound so good. Who is singing, please? Such a nice vocal quality, especially if it is AI.
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment. I am really glad you like this tune and the vocal. The vocalist is one of the friends of the music circle I belong to. I am very encouraged by your kind words.
VERY cool, the intro reminded me of the Elvis Costello/Burt Bacharach song Toldeo. () Excellent live instrument recording - burbling bass and all. Lovely melody too. Wonderful stuff - as usual, as expected, as desired.
