Hi BD!
You’ve done really well to create a song of a person numbed by their personal circumstances. I love the instrumentation choices. I was listening for a piano, given the origins of your song and the reference to it, but couldn’t hear one - but if I was listening without any other information, I wouldn’t be looking for it. The video is supportive also - the stillness of the image apart from the flickering flames reinforces the singer’s state of mind.
Great song!
Andrew
