LOVE this. I first listened while finishing work earlier, back then I mainly noticed your signature lush backing vocals on the chorus (bit loud on this one maybe?). But when I listened again in comfort, able to concentrate... woah, gorgeous song.

I guess I forgot to hit 'post comment'. What I said was...WOW! I love this song! I love the hesitation after down for shelter/echoes of the pictures/where you are...I love the chordings and the harmonies. Seriously, I love this song!!

I don't think I've ever heard you with this tempo. Everything is right-on! Did you do all the parts as you usually do? If so, I didn't know you played electric lead like that & the organ so so well!! My ears thank you. Thanks.

The drum and keys track was on a CD sent to me and composed and performed by a friend, Don Landry. Instantly I wanted to put voices with it, so I did. Don likes it. Mission accomplished. (c) 2009 Royal T Music
