Hi Tommy,
what a beautiful song! Everything fits.
And your vocals and harmonies are outstanding as
always. I like the drums and percussion.
Very enjoyable listens.
Guenter Guenter, I'm glad you liked it! Tom Tommy,
Whow!
This is simply beautiful. Indeed number 90 is your best we think.
As always great audio quality of the mix. As far as emotion and all-around harmony goes, this one kicks it up a couple of notches.
We have had some favorites of you before. But apparently you manage to keep on raising the bar!
Rob & Anne-Marie RnAM, Thanks for the nice comments. I appreciate that you always take the time to listen. Tom Wow, Tom.. I really like everything about this! I'm afraid if I try to analyze why, it will pop the magic bubble, so in this case I'm just going to nod "yes" and say no more... I find it to be a really stirring song though, and it reinforces my respect for your song writing genius! I think Pat got it right. It is just hypnotic and beautiful!! The prosody is amazing-it's gorgeous music which has a little bit of an unsettled sound. The groove is great (RTs work perfectly) and your vocal is GREEEEAAAAAT!! AMAZING STUFF!! Take care. Greg Greg, You hit the nail there. Unsettled sound. Thanks for pointing out your observation. Tom

Clever arrangement to support buut not bury the melody/voice/lyric.
The mix, in headphones at least, really surrounds and gently holds me.
Cheers

Beautiful, Tom. Again. (..and again, and again).
"mind frame/endgame" - nice.
Noel covered it all well - "Everything about it is outstanding; you name it, vocals, arrangement, mix, everything." The arrangement invites you in and then the words rip out your heart...
That cello is tucked in there nicely.
Your vocals just keep notching higher with every new song...
fj floyd, Thanks for the great comments. That cello works well in a lot different songs. It's a bit of challenge not to use in every one. Tom Thomas,
Wow great song. A lot of great things have been said already about your song that I agree about it. The Mix and master on your song really puts a nice polish to an already great mix. Really Pro all around.
Atze Thanks Atze, I have learned a great deal about mixing and mastering by hanging out on this website. It's a great resource for learning engineering. Tom Yep. Another nice tune.
Gordon Lightfoot vibes all over this.
Hey Herb, I never thought of G Lightfoot, but I can see now where you hear that. Thanks for checking in. Tom

Tom, everything that we like about your productions is shining in full force here.
1. The beautifully simple but never mundane lyric that says more in a few words than most could say with ten times as many.
2. Your voice --as floyd mentioned. It has become a strong instrument to the point that it's hard to imagine another interpretation of the lyric.
3. The production that so many can easily take for granted...until you try to do it. You crank these out while I continue to bang my head trying to figure out how you and a very few others do it. Yep, I've got many of the same tools but it takes a LOT more than that.
We'd rather listen again than go any further trying to analyze it.
High bar production!!!
J&B
This is certainly a great review. Thanks for taking the time to say such nice things. Tom Great song, solid write. I love the economy and the preciseness in the writing, it's something I try to do. There's no waste here, no throw away lines, it all rings very true, it's an easy to see scene.
I think that we write alike in that we're talking about the same subjects a lot but from different persceptives (you can disagree if you want) Strong vocals, everything flows like a really good song should. I know those Drums On Demand drums sound clean and good but man I love the Nashville BIAB, use those, EQ that snare, make it pop a little louder and...just my preference
Kenny I too love those Nashville drums. However in this case they just didn't work. Thanks for all the nice comments. Tom

Hi Tom,
Even through my ancient headphones the first few notes and I said ‘wow’ what a mix, clear crisp, you were ‘surrounded by the sound, and your vocal slap dang in the middle, telling the story in that style that fits you like a glove. To a newcomer you really are a source of inspiration.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
