Scott,

I'd hardly call this a "throw away" song! Sounds pretty good to me! Like David said, I could also imagine this with a slower darker backing! Either way it would work for me! BTW the vocal was great as always with your tunes! Thanks, Torrey

I'm also glad that you didn't shelve this song. I think it is your best to date!

Super vocal, mix, instrumentation, and harp leads. They fit perfectly with your vocal.

Hey Scott, love your vocal! One of your best I think.

Harp sounds good to me as does the overall mix, well done.

We agree with Marty re the campfire feel. Good musicians sitting around playing something they feel.

We also felt Misha gave an insightful and positive review that we also much agree with.
And not because he threw an appreciated shoutout to Bud smile

All meaning we don't agree with your paragraph of negatives!

Janice and Bud, thank for the positive vibes!

Hey, I could hear many different versions of this, and I think you should experiment with many styles just for fun to see what happens. Ya never know.

It might be cool to hear a slightly slower piano up front version just for grins.

Thanks, Dave. I've tried many different styles, even slower one, but they just didn't hit the mark for me,

Thank you, Dan. I appreciate your feedback.

Great job with the acoustic choices - and with their processing...they sound "just right".
And the drums are a GREAT compliment to the acoustics (is that an EZDrummer track??)

Very nice vocals - and beautifully mixed - they sit perfectly.

Nice.

Thanks, Floyd. The drum loops are from We Sound Human. I thought I'd give their product a try.

Thanks, Scott. Your comments are much appreciated.
