Nice song, Dani... nice vocal and harmonies.
I like the banjo. Cannot say that I liked the steel lead, though. It did not quite "fit" the feel of the song for me... but that's one of those "personal choices", as you know...
You ARE a machine!
Keep 'em coming...

Another nice tribute Dani.
The banjo was perhaps a little more dominant than other instruments in the mix. Maybe that was intentional though. The choice of Pedal Steel for the solo I thought was a little bit disconnected compared to the rest of the song, but perhaps that was a deliberate part of your design.
Great lyrics, great job as usual

Hi, Floyd !:))
Thank you for your most kind words !:)) I did not really like the steel pedal either so I did change the solo to a electric piano solo (don´t know if the solo got any better, but as you say it might be more in line with the mood of the song ) ?
Cheers Dani

Hi, Blues !:))
Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment, really much appreciated !!:)) Yes, I do agree it is bittersweet but it is a song with a positive undertone as I am slowly getting back to a normal life again, though I do not know how to compensate for that huge loss !!!
Cheers Dani

Hi, Trevor !:))
Thank you so much for your most kind comments ! I fully agree with you and Floyd, the pedal steel was probably too heavy here and so I did a version with elec piano solo too !:)) The banjo was intentional yes !:))
