I LOVE your lyrics, I hope you find someone to contribute some vocals for you. For my taste, the backing tracks sound too happy for those lyrics, but it wouldn't be the first song where that very contradiction makes it work.

Very nice Mike. Great production with nice instruments. Be sure to repost if someone steps forward to provide a vocal, this has got a great sound.
Brad Thanks for your comments Brad. I will definitely repost when I get a vocalist. Cheers, Mike

Hi, Mike. Pleasant melody, good varied arrangement. I would have preferred a touch (more) reverb on the Irish flute, but that's just a nit. Nice listen all the way through! ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) Thanks for listening David. I appreciate your comment about reverb. I always second-guess myself when it comes to reverb - have I used too much or too little? My usual MO is to err on the side of caution. Cheers, Mike That was nice. The lyrics are sad. It was easy to follow along with the melody. Thanks Herb. Glad you enjoyed it. Mike

Hello Mike,
I'm sure that with vocals it would be a great vocal song. But the chord progression and melody are so beautiful that it works as an instrumental song too. The lyrics are very sad, but half of pop songs have heartfelt lyrics. I'd love to hear a version with vocals. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Excellent emotional lyrics with a darn good melody. I was trying to sing along with the flute.
You got a good song that needs to go further with an added singer. Thank Ezekiel. I'm glad you enjoyed the song. All the best, Mike Mike, I didn't catch the original posting but I sure like this. The flute really makes it.
Find a good vocalist for this and it could be radio-ready.
Great job. Thanks Thumper. The search for a vocalist goes on. Cheers, Mike

Mike,
What an outstanding write this is--the lyrics are so, so well-written! I had to go back and read the a couple of times . . . just superb. The instrumental is lovely, wonderfully mixed and produced. I'd love to hear this with a singer--not my style vocally but there are plenty of folks on the board willing to pitch in. I'm hoping someone will take up the cause because it deserves to be recorded and heard. Great work!!
Deej
