Andy, I really enjoyed this song... I like the progression alot and that does indeed comfort me. The voice is nice as well and fits perfect.... I really like the way you make the guitar chug along in a nice rhythm... makes me think of a lovely train ride on a fall afternoon through the country.... very laid back but still full of life and energy!

Mmm, mmm. you may not know, but keep doing it. I love how bare this arrangement is.

Sounds like true love to me...every bittersweet second of it! And it's so lovely to hear you again! More please. And not just every Valentines. (I can't log in. But Sister Savage says hi!)

Excellent track 👍

I seldom know what I’m doing too

Very nice song. Good quality too.

Hi Andrew, nice song! Stay healthy and safe. Keep on going. Paul

great tune andrew , love the lyrics , and vocal ,......cheers tony cee

So lovely and the lyrics are very moving. Beautifully done! I wonder where Julia is now...maybe she can hear your song.

Love it...and great imagery. Now I must see the movie too!

Another beauty! Gorgeous voice as always. (I get some Bowie vibes....and I'm a big fan). You're almost done your FAWM!!! Wow.

Love it …we like to make it special but I can’t remember how……. it’s an excellent album I throughly enjoyed the ride ..

Most of mine from the early years are gone I mean where the hell did I come from who what am I ….who am I evolving into …..oh yeah Reg

Nicely said… there’s always hope

I opened the box but I’m telling you now I can’t get the bloody lid back on ….a dark little beauty

Great lyrics …I just loved that fresh mint feeling

Well done! I enjoyed the line "empty Bottles and a pile of unwashed plates" I'm pretty sure she is your valentine.

Great Valentine's song! You have such a capacity for lyrical story telling - what a talent. Beautiful!! The finishing line is in sight!

another beauty Andrew its coming on to be a great FAWM 2025

I swoon ...I think its a beauty as it is

Very smooth. Lovely live feel. Fine song and arrangement. And what a voice the man has! :-)

Rockin!! Almost convinced me to put away the acoustics and start doing some electric again. Loved it.

Someone's opened my ears (not sure who, but it's probably someone on here) - I started listening to this the other day and thought "yeah, it's ok" and stopped it after 30 seconds to look for something else. I love the title though, so I just gave it another go... well, someone's opened my ears since then! Like it a lot :-)

I like this. I need to check out more of your stuff.

And here's another! Nice work guys. I don't seem to understand enough about what you're doing to make sensible comments. Except this - I like it, keep doing it!

Yes. You're exploring a slightly different place than I am, but several times recently I've clicked on one of yours just to see "what's cooking" and each time you take me closer to this different place. I'm starting to feel that vaisvil tunes are essential "Andrew Russe listening"! :-)

Missed this originally. Love it. I'm a sucker for songs with the word "shine" in anyway (I've used it several times over the years, myself). I just LOVE the word and the concept of "shine" when it's applied to humans - seems to be a really powerful trigger. I would use it in every song I write if I could!!! (Would kind of waste it's power though lol) And this one doesn't waste it... a really beautiful song and performance. Faved.

Yeah... nice version. Some lovely strat sounds there.

Nice one :-)

Wonderful :-)

Why have I never heard this before? It's beautiful.

I found this very moving - even before I read the description.

This is mighty fine listening.

You guys are crazy! lol But what really impresses me is that there's some seriously crazy musicianship going on with it. Love the guitar playing.

Surprised no comments yet! I kinda like this

Oh yes... Not heard this before. But like the other comments, what a fantastic voice. And a magical song and performance.

This is a fine version - listened to it a couple of times. Lovely performance. Even with the ad lib!! So glad to know for certain that it's not just me that finds that particular ad lib making it's way onto my recording machine :-) BTW - It all seems to be on the left channel of the stereo, though - is that what you intended?

I've commented before, but this started playing after listening to something else. And I had to comment again: I LOVE this song and your vocal. (You asked for comments - the ONLY thing that distracts me is the popping on the mic on the lead vocal, I'd want you to address that. I suspect you want to work on the lead guitar - I think you can almost leave that if you want, the song and the vocal is where this is at for me). Wish I could Favourite it again! :-)

This is superb. Just superb.

This works :-) I'm still very fond of the original instrumental, so I was a bit worried what might have happened. But no, no need to have worried... this is great. Obviously the focus is on the vocal instead of the fantastic guitars, but I like the contrast in the styles of the two of you. And great lyrics. Nice work chaps!
