Very cool song Shigeki. Loved the intro. Excellent vocal. Could be a song for a James Bond movie...

Shigeki,
I really enjoyed the big sounding production on this song especially the dramatic string arrangement.The work that must go into these midi tracks is daunting to me, and yours are among the best on this forum.
The vocals by Yoko are good as well.
"Being protected by the guardian stars
Now I am just watching the dark lake
While leaning in the old boat"
very evocative lyrics!
Robert

Shigeki Adachi,
Your arrangements are a real musical delight.
The combination of pop instruments with orchestral strings and Yoko's strong vocal of a terrific melody all combined to remind me of the biggest of the female singers of the mid '60s... Petula Clark, Dusty Springfield, LuLu.... this sounds like a hit for any of them.
Great use of the different drum tracks. Strings are excellent. Excellent mix.
Outstanding. As always.

It's wonderful to hear something a little different from you, Shigeki! This is a really well-arranged tune. The vocal performance is killer, too. I love the harmonized electric guitars at the end -- a perfect climax to an already exciting song.

You are excelling in all the genres you turn your hand to and your strings are always a delight.
Superb arrangement topped off by a nice vocal.

We love Scott's comment about how this tune could be a theme from a James Bond movie. Perfect.
This sounds like it dropped out of a famous production studio.
The composition, vocal and arrangement are superb and you never cease to amaze.

Shigeki Adachi
You always mange to deliver marvelous songs, and this one is no exception.
I enjoyed it from the first note. A great arrangements with a sensational popular style, although I wouldn't have categorized is as 'rock'.
Truly enjoyable. Thanks for another one.

We're going to have to invent a new word to describe your excellent written, mixed, arranged, performed production masterpieces. I would truly love to sit with you throughout you creating one of your works. You produce big studio, big budget sounds like no other.
Such an enjoyable listen for me this morning.

Hi Shigeki,
Your songs and arrangements are always so full and pleasant to the ear. Yoko's vocal is splendid! Everything about this song is fantastic. It has a classic sound with nuances of contemporary. Twinning the vocal in places was another exceptional dynamic. We totally loved it. Excellent work!
Alan & Di

It's a rock song but whit the right touch of melody, that's a big thing.
It's the better kind of rock.
Very well performed and arranged.
