Now that is cool!!! Excellent work all three. The write is terrific. The melody is a good match for the lyric. Greg's vocal is the perfect delivery vehicle for the message. Peter, brilliantly played passages in the solo. I like everything about this. The arrangement builds nicely. The soaring female vocal in the end was a nice touch. Superb mix. There are a lot of good things going on in this one! Tom Tom Thanks for the encouraging review and glad you liked it.

Totally agree with all the others in this one ! Especially the ending made it very like Pink Floyd style... This could be a big hit.. Will share it on FB ! Congratulation for a really excellent job ! Leo Thanks for that glad you enjoyed it.

Neither of us listened to enough Pink Floyd to get the connection...
So what we are hearing follows:
1. Wonderful write with a message close to us 2. A beautifully sung and mixed vocal 3. Off the chart guitar playing 4. A mix that holds together at low volume, medium volume or high volume 5. A stellar example of a BIAB forum collab
One of the best that we've heard during our four years on the forum.
WTG guys!!!!!!!
J&B Peter, Leon, Greg, What a wonderful listen! When I read through the comments and came across Janice's and Bud's, I had to quote them. They've covered everything I thought (although I didn't try the different volume levels). I, too, have not listened to a great deal of Pink Floyd so that influence is a bit lost on me. But the song.... Wow! It is so very, very good and a credit all..... first class EVERYTHING! Regards, Noel

Wow, excellent song! So much good stuff going on here!
In addition to the obvious Pink Floyd influence, I hear Beatles all over this! Dynamics are exceptional, going from quiet to stirring... and the way the instruments and vocal parts flow in and out of the mix is really well done!
Great guitar playing, Peter!
Greg, this is a different vehicle for your voice, but I really like what you've done here, both as lead and backing vocals! The mix between the vocals and the instruments is perfect... such a professional sound, it really pays homage to the excellent music of the 70s!
Drums are snappy , everything is right where it needs to be...
You know you've put together a good song when you get the chills response, as Floyd said.. and this has it!
I don't generally like preachy lyrics, and 9 times out of ten I click away as soon as I realize I'm being fed a point of view. The fact that this song not only held my attention but left me scrambling to write a favorable review is a whole different kind of testimony to the power of this song.
Great job, my hat is off to all the collaborators! Pat Thanks for the comprehensive review much appreciated.

What a fabulous collaboration The laid back yet purposeful style and singing of this song, albeit a rock, uncovers many a strong truth regarding our fragile little blue home. . Well scripted, well sung, Well orchestrated, Well mixed. The rest has all been coverd by other great comments here. Paddy G
Paddy Thanks for the kind words.

Hi Peter, Leon and Greg Now that is cool!!! Excellent work all three. The write is terrific. The melody is a good match for the lyric. Greg's vocal is the perfect delivery vehicle for the message. Peter, brilliantly played passages in the solo. I like everything about this. The arrangement builds nicely. The soaring female vocal in the end was a nice touch. Superb mix. There are a lot of good things going on in this one! Exactly! I've already listened several times and can't get enough of it. Guenter Guenter Thanks for that,(feel free to have another play).

Cool, so many things have already been expressed that I share. Great collab, Greg, great vocals, Peter that solo was unbelievely good! just awesome. Production was slick, pro. I don't like preachy message songs, I'm in Pennsylvania where the coal industry is still important to the livelihood of many people, even with those things said, I have no problems with an excellently stated and presented song with a longer outlook and overview for us all. Great job, enjoyed.
Kenny Kenny I have a nephew who works in a coal mine so I understand how sensitive some of these issues can be. Glad you enjoyed the song.

Tasty guitar solo. Obvious 70's Pink Floyd vibe.... nice work
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

You guys definitely listened to "Dark Side of the Moon" in the early 80s! We love this one. Beautiful arrangement Peter (great Dave Gilmour guitar solo too), and Greg (we know you're a Pink Floyd specialist) very well sung! And the Di Caprio monologue gives a cool touch to it all.
Rob and Anne-Marie Rob & Ann-Marie Thanks it was good of Leonardo to help out.

Beautiful melody, dynamic mix. Enjoyable lyrics make this feel like a true hit song. Greg's interpretation is excellent, the female vocalist adds nice feeling. And the guitar solo is the final crown. A masterpiece, definitely.
