We love the lyric and the bouncy, joyous feeling of the melody.
While listening we were watching the daffodils in our yard blowing to and fro in the breeze and the new shoots of green popping out on the trees. 😊

The band sounds great and the fiddle solo and fiddle fills are extra special.
And the mix perfectly supports the song.
Open, airy and excellent subtle dynamics.

This is wonderful:
“Now sitting here beside you
In this carefree country meadow
Birds tweeting sweetly
In the trees while you dream
Nature’s joy is everywhere
As far as I can see
Yes, happiness is green”

Cool concept and we loved it!

Hi J&B.

Thank you heaps for taking the time to travel over to Soundcloud and listen. I also greatly appreciate your comments. When I read your phrase about daffodils blowing to and fro in your yard, had I thought of that at the time, they would have been a perfect fit for my meadow scene smile Maybe something like

I really appreciate your comments on the mix and the band. Putting a musical ensemble together is not a great strength of mine, and I often go through many combinations of instruments before I end up with something I like. That's the beauty of BIAB, though. There's always something suitable if you're patient and look carefully (and ignore genres).

Thank you again and I hope that spring is looking really good for you both.
