Wow! That was something, and quite the delight to my ears after a long day of work.

This is one of those songs/productions where everything has come together magnificently!

That bass sounds a bit McCartney-esque.

Very nice backing. Subtle. Just right for the song. Sweet bass sound.

Excellent mix.

A very pleasant listen.

Cool cover photo! (That girl is forever walking away...)

What fascinates me is to witness new creations taking shape, powered by people so far apart and so different. Good one! Thank you for sharing.

P.S. Sorry late for the party, storm related issues.


Thanks Misha for checking out the song. So glad you liked it. Appreciate the awesome comments.

Sounds great. Open sound, clear guitar, strong vocals.

I'm not sure I've ever heard a song with the "acquiescence" in the lyric, so bonus points there! wink

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

And amazing how everyone is working together nowadays.
I see I stayed behind on that path... But let me keep my focus on this performance.
It's just great, I said on SoundCloud. And that is what it is.

I enjoyed it very much,
Hans


Thanks Hans for checking out the song. Spirit Level had decided to take a hiatus for awhile so this was a collaboration with Janice, Bud, Ray and myself. Really glad you liked the song.

Thanks folks,
This was always going to be a lovely song.
The progression and fluid guitar lines were an excellent starting point.
When Janice & Bud joined the production team the result was guaranteed to be fabulous.
