Hi Dani,
Love the feel and arrangement of your song - reminds of sitting on a train ride through the Rockies. Did you sing the lower part too?
Thanks for sharing, Ray

Well, Trevor..
Thank you so much for your most kind words !:)) I could not really find a good replacement for the rhytm we used on the record back in 1992 but I think I came pretty close after all !
Cheers Dani

Hi, Guenter, my ol´friend !:))
Thank you for your most kind words. Up here we can have summers that are very hot but it can also be the opposite ! It all depends on the Siberian Highs and how they build up and how far westwards they will push !:))
Cheers Dani

Hi Dani,
What a pretty song. I like it a lot. I could visualize the northern lights - home sounds like a wonderful place.

Hi, Josie !:))
Thank you my friend for your most kind words !:)) Yes, home is not as bad and cold as one might think, summers up here can be very warm indeed (depending mostly on how far the Siberian highs push westwards !:)) Midsummer over here is almost magical with never ending daylight and lighted up bonfires all along the coastline !:))
Cheers Dani
