You've got a really good feel here, man. Haunting piano-work and great lyricism. I really like your singing too. Nothing to critique here. Perfection. Thanks for listening to my tracks as well. I hope you liked it. I really need to work on lots of things.
I hope you are getting gigs doing this stuff man. Keep up this style and you will go somewhere for sure ^.^

This is some weird stuff! i like the flow of the instruments followed with your accompanied weird-like vocals. reminds me of Tom Waits.
Weird in an Awesome way that is.

hey reg[s? - i am assuming from the profile pic that the two of you are uncomfortably compelled to share a body (just as you will be able to deduce from mine that i am not actually a real life sockpuppet but only a cartoon one))] - i really enjoyed that (from the opening bars where i thought it was going to be a cover of the doors) - is there to be a pt.2? or is is it a time loop & pts2etal are identical? do you do "rock" "operas"? do you think you should?
i love it - xs
