I absolutely second, third and fourth that.

This number is legit to the umpteenth degree.

Agreed with all that has been said. Can't add anything, but awesome.

I realise (to paraphrase someone) that I've been a very naughty boy. I was listening to the whole Picasso project yesterday and I realised there are some tracks I haven't commented on. And this is one, I need to be severely punished as it's effing brilliant and really needs to get some more comments.

Overall, it's the combination of vox and arrangment that really make this a standout track for me. Such a clever combination of instruments to make a deep and multi-faceted soundscape on top of which you have those wonderful vocals. Your vocal performance on this is superb, so many great nuances that bring out the power of the lyrics so well. The combination of guitars and keys is sublime.

I think the mix is fantastic as well. It sounds great on phones but it also sounds superb on my studio monitors, so well done there! You have a great balance of sounds across the tonal range and the vox are mixed perfectly for me - they cut through clearly without overpowering the mix.

Absolutely wonderful Rob and TJ, a really high quality piece of work. And a very beautiful piece of music as well.

Cheers,

Nigel
