So well done, Dan. Ian soars, and you and Amber fill it out with beautiful harmonies. Excellent choice to keep it simple. It focuses attention on the message.


Enjoy whatever happens!

This is a wonderful song. The vocals soar. The arrangement is a perfect compliment to the song. Professional sounding mix.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Dave and om...thanks for your gracious comments...it was a suggestion from a song I posted earlier that helped me make the decision to keep the arrangement minimal on this song which I'm convinced was the right choice for it...I really appreciate this forum and the comments and suggestions we get here...I take them all to heart...we all want our "children" to be properly dressed.

Wow what a beautiful song. Such an awesome voice. The cello is a perfect accompaniment for the vocal. Lovely harmonies. Well done.

I completely agree!

What a fantastic backing track you have laid down for those outstanding voices! Simply fantastic!

Loved it!
