Beautifully crafted. Dynamically i feel it needs something 3:20 - 3:30 when it breaks down to just the delicate piano section. It just sounds like the song is finishing to me. Other than this small detail this is nigh on perfect :)

I thought about the Duet thing.. but after listening again I am too scared to screw up such a beautiful song. Leave this one as is. Maybe duet to another.

It's really nice to hear a womans voice on here.
Why don't we do it on the road?

Has the feel of a modern hymn. I like that - better than what I hear at Mass.
I like when the synth strings come in, but the piano/vocal part is fine, too. Some backing vocals would be really powerful, I think - adding even more heft to what is already a big song.

Thanks for your comments! I agree, some backing vocals would be wonderful. But it would have to be a different singer (or even a couple of different singers) IMO.

If anybody feels like adding anything, don't hesitate! I'm always more than happy to do different versions of my songs. There is no highlander here - there can always be more than one! :)
