Thanks Scott.
Kate Bush... wow!
But there's a difference of at least one octave between her voice and mine smile

Thanks for your compliments Brad!
I appreciate it.

I hope I succeeded...

You have certainly succeeded in doing that. I think you could even add a dB or three to the vocals without overdoing it.

And your arrangement shows that drum loops can make all the difference when used properly, the end of the song is amazing.

A beautiful song with a beautiful voice about an interesting subject.


Making bits and bytes sound good...

P.S.

The "when time expires" line inflection at the end reminds me of Noe Venable.

Rob & Ann-Marie,

Excellent song!
Ann-Marie's vocals are great.
Although it's a slow ballad, the backing has a euro hip-hop feel rhythm throughout the song, creating a unique mood.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Rob / Anne-Marie,

This song was absolutely worth the remaster / remix. A beautiful song elevated by the production, arrangement and Anne-Marie's smokey vocals.

Excellent!

Rob and Anne-Marie,

I think you captured what you set out to do with the re-master of this one! What a pretty song and I love that melodic twist leading into the chorus!

Thanks, Torrey

Songs should make us feel something or reflect on something - yours most definitely does. I'm sitting here in silence now, but the music and lyrics are still playing in my mind. I'd say that means it's a keeper.
