Dan,
Wow! That is a great song and a great production! You have some of the best mixes on the forum.
Love the voices (so nuanced) and that final chorus is killer! Very cool selection of tracks as well - perfect fit.
EXCELLENT!

Hi, Dan. "Take a chance"? Ha! The first verse was a bit out of the singer's range, but other than that minor nit... nice! Lots of harmony and modulation, tuneful melody and a solid mix.

David...I think you're right about the 1st verse so I replaced Cyrus with Sarah...it's a little more in her range plus it gives the song a softer beginning...thanks!...Dan

As a former gospel choir soloist, I love this! Truly lovely and inspirational. The key changes are awesome. Send in the full backing choir!

Hi Dan,
Man, you are on a roll these days! Great to see. Vocals are fabulous, especially when the harmonies start.
Really well done, loved it.

Dan, wow, this is a super song, and a magnificent arrangement. Really love what you're doing with the Synth V voices...it sounds like they've been together for a long, long time. I can't speak for the other forum members, but *I* was sure you hadn't lost your touch with modulations. Ha! Like how smooth and transparent you've made the ones in this song. They really serve the song perfectly. All excellent!

Some modulations break a song. The ones we are treated to here have the opposite effect. Love your piano work - smooth, sensitive and, like the synths perfectly nuanced. (I have only just started to play around with Synthesizer V and I think it's going be a steep learning-curve!).
Great mix and production (as usual). As Oliver Twist once said, "Please, sir, I want some more!"
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

That chorus harmony was delicious. Nicely done. Just like a really good family gospel group with sibling harmonies perfectly sung.
The modulations are well done. There's nothing here that I don't like.
One of the best songs I've heard here of recent.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

WOW what a beautiful song. Strong Melody, excellent arrangement, interesting key changes/ chord changes. Vocal performances are excellent, you really got the best from SynthV voices. Sounds very theatrical ... I can see this in a Play on Broadway. Excellent mix and production.

Excellent piano intro to start the song. I had to recheck the comments to see that it's you. I like the use of multiple vocalists. It gives you lots of options for melodic range. An enjoyable song and production. Did that synth voice use falsetto? Beautiful rich harmonies.
