Great job on the vocals!
It's reminiscent of some of the 70's folk rock classics in style and substance!

Thanks, TB

Thanks, Torrey! Those 60s folk tunes were the soundtrack to my childhood, but they never seem to get old.

"Aren't the stars bright?" is a clever ease from the gun and grave, bit of contradiction but it works so well - escapism needed in these times...

Very well mixed, the bass sounds very pleasant. Enjoyed your comforting vocals.

I'm not sure yet if the song ends too quickly...

Thank you, Janne. Well, if I'm going to win an award, nothing could please me more than "Strangest Song Title of the Year". I'll almost always post the lyricist's full song title here, but honestly I just labeled the song files "Marie" as I worked it. Long filenames can be a pain! I love Gilbert O'Sullivan! He sure had his moment.
