The vocal was awesome. Add this sync'd to your video takes it to a new level. Cool song and lyric. Production was incredible.

Oh wow. So moving. Reminded me a little of the Irish band, the Coors, in some way, stylistically ... but what a song, and what a moving and sobering video. Thank you - appreciated immensely.

B.D.Thomas,

Awesome tribute you created here! Love the sound of the synth vocals, they really sound great! It's a sobering thought for me to realize that I have reached an older age than the vast majority of these people! Makes me appreciate today!

Take care, Torrey

firesong, thanks a lot for your nice feedback.
I don't write often in 3/4, but I think for this kind of song it works quite well.

This is well mixed and speaks to us all.
We all have our idols. I recall George Jones and "Who's gonna fill their shoes".
The video, although very well done, maybe could have been a history of idols from living memory or some will be wondering why you didn't include their own idols but we can't have it all can we?

Well done.
Vic

Nice tribute and touching subject, so true for all of us, to miss these great artists and never hear any new material from them is really sad. Nice melody, catchy chorus, good arrangement (I really like the cello) and pleasant vocals. Good work with the video also.

J&B

PS We are older … for us it’s been Gregg Allman, Glen Frey, John Prine, Tom Petty and more. It is so easy to apply your fine lyric to them.

[...slowly catching up after being on vacation...].

Thanks for listening and for the kind words, J&B.

For me, as a songwriter and music lover, writing a song like this was a very personal thing, but from the feedback I've gotten here and from friends, I've realized that I've hit on a more general theme that most, if not all, generations can relate to....

You really do a wonderful job with video and synth singers. Very pleasant and draws the viewer right in. Great idea for a tribute tune, kind of reminds me when the Oscars show which actors died that year. Great work, keep it up!

Hehe. Thanks to Scott running late, I get a chance to hear what I missed the first time around.

Excellent work - vocals, lyrics, arrangement and mix. Eleanor works well here.

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

Nice arrangement and Eleanor does a decent job but this song needs a little humanity in it to express the feeling.

I think if I had invested more time I could have made it much more expressive, but I see what you mean.

My wife thought that a male singer would fit the mood of the song better, but my (baritone) voice somehow didn't fit right blush

This is a hell of a tribute to those whom have died. Many have left their mark on our hearts and on future and current musicians.

Two thumbs up

Thank you very much for your nice comment, Mario. Much appreciated smile

Thanks for listening and your nice feedback, Greg.
I'm also worried about the next one playing his last gig...
