Careful Reg! She could be a hallucination! I don't like the sounds of this... er, well, I mean the sounds of this situation.
The sounds of the song are top-notch, as always.

This is an oldie. Recorded in 2005. It was the first recording I finished on a DAW, but I'd played it a lot in the last band I was in (around the turn of the century). I think it was written in the mid 90s. It's about one of the casualties of…

My mother recently died of Alzheimer’s after a long illness and I can say you’ve certainly captured the disease with this track, the desperate confusion, the fear and loss an excellent bit of work .

Stay with it Reg, ignore the optics in the cellar and keep producing fine music like this.
I love it!!! It reminds me of some of Pink Floyd's stuff. I really dug the way your vocals and the music combine on this one.
