In the comments, David describes the song as 'immersive'. I totally agree. A song to loose oneself in. Outstanding singing and playing as per usual. Very much enjoyed. Regards, Leon
A very intriguing song. Just like the title suggests; dark and with tension. I like that. It is different from a lot of your songs. Not a typical Blues. The 'heavy' sound of the piano in (some) contrast to the beautiful vocals gave it that intriguing sphere. You never disappoint me with your songs!

Hi Hans, Yes, it's definitely not blues. Not sure what genre it should fall under actually ;P Thanks, happy we didn't disappoint!

Excellent performances across the band. Love the bvox. The vocal level drops for a couple of words at "sunlight" 1.12 and around 1.29 a similar thing occurs. It does add to the dynamics so I may be missing the point. Lovely work - cool song.

WOW! This is outstanding. You three make one hell of a band! Loved this from the git-go. The mix is spot on. The vocal is outstanding as are the guitar parts. Marty's bass fits like a glove and oh so good.
This is definitely a winner and IMHO your best to date.
Not sure that it's our best, but happy you liked it Thanks!

It's really a beautiful composition both in terms of the arrangement and the sublime voice of Christiane Spruit as well as the very engaging lyrics. Very nice demonstration of your talents. I really appreciated.
Kindly regard Take care of yourself Derochette alias JaniJackFlash
Thanks for the listen and comments, appreciate it!
Really nice - it's immersive like a Pink Floyd song.
I never seem to remember the actual lyrics of your songs, because I'm so caught up on the mood and sound.
It's as much an "experience" as a song.
Thanks, David!

Man, what a great vocal—Chris sounds outstanding on this . . . actually the entire production is top notch. Just resonates; totally professional sounding cut. Love the lead guitar work. Brilliant work on this one.
All my best,

Thanks for the listen, Deej!

I always recheck my mixes a few weeks after the fact with fresh ears to make sure I didn't miss anything, and I've made notes of your comments so I'll check that specifically when the time comes.
Thanks as always for your great feedback, Ray, I appreciate it!
I usually don't read the other messages but I did this time and one word keeps coming up: haunting. I think if you can embody a song with a strong feeling like that, you've accomplished a lot. Well done to all the members of Blue Attitude!

We will do a video for this song as we do for all of our songs, but probably not in time to update the song description here. The last few videos have all had performance elements which makes them more fun IMHO.
What a pretty sounding song! Chris's vocals are always some of the best presented here! She has a really interesting style that just grabs the listeners attention! I often am reminded of Ann Wilson when I hear her. Dave you always seem to give the right touch to what is needed in a song with your guitar playing. What you put down here is excellent again! What a player you are! Marty is such a great addition to your ensemble! He again has provided a pro sounding contribution here with his parts! Super job! T
BlueAttitude never falters. A solid band sound with everyone doing their part - and doing it well. Marty's bass. Dave's guitars. Chris' write, vocals, piano. The band's BGVs.
Y'all have developed a terrific sound. Consistently good. Always an enjoyable listen. One more cut for the next album...
Good mix.
Nice.

Agree with all that!! You guys pretty much nail it every time!! When I heard Chris a few years ago for the first time, I thought she was a solid singer, but man she gets better and better, and is killing it these days!! Great job guys!! Take care. Greg
Sorry for being late for this one, but it deserves more praise. I really like the dark melancholy mood - because it fits with the winter darkness in the Northern Europe and the beautiful chord progression reminds me of musical style used here.
Nice delicate singing and the backing vocals work very well, I enjoyed the lyrical landscape also, kaleidoscoping - clever idea for a verb. Great band, the lead guitar plays very emotionally. Very touching song overall and gets better on each listening.

Update your Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows for free with build 1111!
With this update, there's more control when saving images from the Print Preview window, we've added defaults to the MultiPicker for sorting and font size, updated printing options, updated RealTracks and other content, and addressed user-reported issues with the StylePicker, MIDI Soloists, key signature changes, and more!
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."
