Excellent song , arrangement and mix just blends in with the vocals .

You all should be pleased with this one , I liked the feel due to the strong bass line , In my opinion !!. Bass gives a good guide to a good melody.

Great vocals top it all off !

Thanks

Hi Scott,
Wow, this is such a fantastic song. Surely everyone involved was on the top of their game this day! Janice's singing is as polished as always. The beginning guitar grabs the attention and the whole song was just a really sweet and enjoyable listen. Thanks for posting!

Cool opening guitar.

A gorgeous vocal. Stunning.

Very nice backing. Subtle. Just right for the song. Sweet bass sound.

Excellent mix.

A very pleasant listen.

Cool cover photo! (That girl is forever walking away...)

Thanks Janne for checking out the song. I agree Ray created an excellent lyric and Janice did an awesome job of the vocal. Glad you liked it.

Ray is such a good bassist, playing what needs to be said on the low end while creatively dancing with the lyric, and I know he is so good at making everything click together. It doesn't get any better than Bud when it comes to studio work.

Scott, this is such a good song. So glad you dusted it off and assembled such a great team to help with the polishing.


Thanks Marty for the awesome comments. They are very much appreciated. So glad you liked the song.

Scott & Crew.
This was totally unexpected. Excellent teamwork! Nice laid back Indie / Folk tune. Everyone has their own space, yet sound as a team/whole. To me, that is the "prize won" in a collaboration. Solid write and performance. Janice - wonderful vocals, you took this to whole new dimension. Bud, A+ mix. What fascinates me is to witness new creations taking shape, powered by people so far apart and so different. Good one! Thank you for sharing.

Misha.


P.S. Sorry late for the party, storm related issues.

Wonderful!

I see Spirit level is expanded and Bud and Janice joined. You are getting nearly unbeatable!
Very nice song, sensitive lyrics, very well sung and a satin leadguitar!
And amazing how everyone is working together nowadays.
I see I stayed behind on that path... But let me keep my focus on this performance.
It's just great, I said on SoundCloud. And that is what it is.

I enjoyed it very much,
Hans

Nice clean guitar work Scott!

Ray your guitar and bass work are sublime!

Thanks, Torrey


Thank you Torrey...we haven't done a country song in a while-- mostly blues nowadays.
It must be my southern accent! smile smile smile

Thanks for mentioning my vocal and glad you liked the song!

One of the most beautiful, lyrical songs I've heard on this forum. It could be in the charts instantly (only it's too good for modern charts, somehow, I feel). I love well done melancholic songs, and this has everything. Sincerest congratulations.

P.S. LOVE Janice's accent on "it's" from "it's a crime" in A4. And the lyrics ... Ray, you've outdone yourself.


Thank you for mentioning my vocal. I loved the song from the moment first I heard it! All of your comments are much appreciated.
