Steve, It is always a pleasure to hear your music. Always. I really like what Bud said (and agree fully): For a rock song, somewhat counter intuitively, there is a gentle core that flows through the entire production and it enhances the message.
And like, Torrey, I really like the "Springsteen-esque ending". Excellent vocals, arrangement and mix. This has the sound and feel of a Phil Vassar song... because of that, I did wish that the piano was mixed a bit more prominently... Good stuff. fj

Hey everybody! I have been out of the loop for the past couple of weeks. Sorry to take so long to respond to all your kind words! I hope to be more "around" now... Steve,
Love this! Great to hear you rock... Excellent track selection and mix as usual.
A very inspirational song!
Bob Thanks so much, Bob! Glad you like this one! Hi Steve. Your song writing always shines.
As always great production and vocal.
Thanks for the back story. All the best. Rob
Thank you, Rob! Appreciate your kind words. Nice to get a good catchy pop song from you Good way to start with the chorus, to get into fast pace rhythm. I like the soft arrangement/mix, and those little percussion effect are nice additions. Enjoyable singing, you are showing your 'kick' in a very lively way. Really enjoyed the song, keep on fighting! Janne Thanks, Janne, for your nice comment! " little grey around the temples works just fine But if you think I'm done, that's where I draw the line These bones may rattle to the beat of the songs I play But make no mistake, these bones are here to stay"
Now that's testifyin'!
For a rock song, somewhat counter intuitively, there is a gentle core that flows through the entire production and it enhances the message.
Your keyboards and the RT/RD tracks make a fine band as always.
The sincerity of your vocals never disappoint. We are all about soul, sincerity, feeling... whatever you want to call it in vocals for any genre and you have it in spades.
Keep kicking him!!!
We enjoyed both the audio and video versions.
J&B
Hey, Janice and Bud! Thanks for your kind words! Always good to hear from you! Excellent key signature choice for this Steve! The different instruments are also layered very nicely too. Keep em coming! Thanks, Joe! Glad you like it. Inspiring, intelligent, and beautiful!!! Wonderful song, and so well played and performed! Wonderful message, wonderfully delivered! Everything done just right! AWESOME Steve!!! Take care. Greg Thanks, Greg! I'm always encouraged when anybody says anything I do is intelligent! Really appreciate your comment!

My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile

Hello steve,
Very nice to get a good catchy pop song from you! As always great production and vocal. Your classical ballad that I listened to before was great, but such a rock song is also wonderful. Inspirational and entertaining. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
