Nicely done... Nicely sung...
A very tasteful arrangement with pleasant build up of instrumental voices...
I guess you know...
You are an extremely talented songwriter & arranger! Thanks Jim. I sincerely appreciate your comments and I'm glad you had a chance to visit Soundcloud and listen. All the best to you, Noel

Noel with your permission I would love to play this song on my easy does it show on hospital radio here in Scotland. Perfect fit for my 2nd hour on Friday nights. This is only the 2nd song I've listened to so far so this makes it two in a row. I'm a sucker for lovely ballads and I really love this one

Noel, IMHO this is your best to date. Your backing tracks are perfect! Your vocals are excellent, as usual, but your lyrics took it over the top for me. Your mix is also perfect!
Yeah, I've got O.C.D, Old, Cranky, and Dangerous.

Noel, to have played ANY part in this song is an honor.
It's a touching production in ALL aspects.
It meant so much to Janice's mother...more than we can ever express.
Coming from the depth of your soul and heart makes it a very special production.
Thank you.
J&B

Noel,
really pretty arrangement and a fabulous narrative.
My ONLY quibble, (& it's a common, modern issue), would be as a curmudgeonly grammarist:
When so is used there ought to be a conclusion based on it as in "You hit me so I hit you back"
"It was so hot that I burnt my fingers" etc.
"And I’m so thankful for them all" begs a conclusion such "that I pray each night for your safety." etc etc.
I only mention that because there's nothing else in the lovely piece that made me think "If it were me..."
I do take much from the fact that sentence, stanza, paragraph or lyric didn't start with so!
Moel,
Classic stuff and someone should pick it up and use it in time for Mum's Day 2020.
Hi Ray, Thank you for the insight both musical and grammatical. I wasn't aware that "so" was used in such contexts. Where I grew up, "so" was used in the way that I used it so it's probably just a local vernacular thing. Thanks again for taking the time... All the best, Noel

Noel,
A lovely song. I especially like the B section... good write.
The production is superb. The guitars sound as good as guitars can.
Your vocal is good on every level. Well sung, well recorded, well processed - and sitting perfectly in the mix. And the mix is excellent throughout.
A beautiful sentiment, a beautiful package.
fj Hi floyd, Thanks for visiting.I sincerely appreciate your comments. Mixing is still a work in progress for me. It doesn't come easily at all... maybe one day. Thanks for the positive feedback. It makes it all worthwhile All the best, Noel

Mother's Day is hard for some folks. I often try to get through it by convincing myself it's really just a man-made holiday invented to strengthen certain economic sectors. But, like other holidays, if it can get a human for one day to look through the small end of the telescope and begin to connect some of the dots of creation than I can be thankful for that, for this, and for her.
Nice one, Noel. Hi Tangmo, Thank you heaps for listening. I really appreciate it. All the best, Noel

Noel, this is simply beautiful. And I mean just that. The simple arrangement makes room for the powerful message, and builds so tastefully, it only serves to enhance the sentiments expressed. Well done, my friend!
Your vocals have never sounded better, and your lyrics really shine on this one.
This is one of my favorites of yours!
