Very beautiful song Robert! Man was that cello ever an inspired choice! Nice work with those harmonies along with the lead vox! Wonderful melody! Fabulous ending! Thanks, Torrey

A very beautiful song - the combination of the excellent choice of instrumentation, sense of rhythm and pacing, and the well crafted lyrics create a wonderful atmosphere and feel. The vocals really carry the song, and convey a distinct sense of longing, tinged with joy.

Another great song. I listened through some of your tracks on soundcloud and I really love your poetic lyrics and the sensitive arrangements. Really good stuff... Chris, Thanks for your listens and positive comments! Robert ...
You give poetic music a new and higher definition. So much said in so few words. And the vocal is wonderful! The acoustic backing, with such a nice arrangement, only adds to the sentiment and power presented the well-chosen words. This is really something to be proud of. So very nice!
Best to you. Be safe ...
Alan That`s very kind, Al- thank you! Well crafted tune. Lovely lyrics and vocals. I too love that cello. Beautiful touch. Nice one. Thank you! Wow, I'm stunned. Loved every bit of the song - vocals, arrangement, harmony. I appreciate your thumbs up on this! Very cool. Personally I'd've ditched the bass and let the cello cover the bottom end with a little EQ to increase the bottom E on the finger picked acoustic, and panned those up the middle I suppose. Ok, those are interesting alternatives...if I revisit this. Hi Robert,
A sweet melody, melancholic and so nicely sung! As others already said; the cello fits so nice in it, a good instrument for this song!
And -as usual- brilliant lyrics! I hope one day I can write one of this kind...
Hans Hi Hans, Thank you for commenting- you are a very supportive participant here and that`s much appreciated! Robert

Robert
A lovely delicate piece (almost a Nick Drake feel) well performed and arranged. A very enticing lyric, and overall very well done.
Peter Peter, Nick Drake wrote a lot into very simple lyrics- if this reminds of his style I`m happy. Thanks for commenting. A lyric to melt into delivered with soft grace. The band is all it needs to be, and the progression (and melody wrung from it) moves me as well. Excellent package. Thank you, Mr T! I enjoyed the simple poetic lyric, mysterious imagery expressed in few words. Not a haiku but I had to count the syllables The beautiful chording works very well with the picking guitar and that nice melodic cello. Great ending like falling into a colorful dream. Janne Janne, I let the VersePerfect software count my syllables.Thank you for your very kind comments! Robert

Superb. Trademark sensitivity from you, wrapped up in - at first, at least - perhaps deliberately ambiguous and cryptic lyrics. You are certainly one of the very best poets on this site, both lyrically and musically. And: your songs are like balm to wounds. Whenever I feel like screaming internally, I know that, if you've put a new song on here, I'll be calmer (if not necessarily happier) about my lot. Acoustic balm for the soul. Thank you.

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."
