I've been wanting to listen to this for days Geir but I kept getting side tracked but not today. It was well worth the wait. To say this song is awesome doesn't even come close to describing my first listen thoughts. I read a member's comment a few days ago (Bruno?) that read something like this: once in a while one of the songcrafter members steps into the realm of creating and producing a song that sounds as though it were performed and recorded in a professional studio with the pro engineers. Well my friend that describes my thoughts. This is the real deal...pro all the way! I love the wide acoustic guitar sound. I too hear a little JT but sorry JT, this is Geir!

My goodness this is so good,the production is flawless and so full,the vocal is spot on and the music is so good,it's a very well put together song.
The story to the song is also intriguing ,it's amazing what captures our imaginations and spurs us on to write these songs.
One of my favourites from you so far Geir ,one for the piepod. ;D

Sometimes you feel you've done ok, and when you get comments like this ... well, for me, that can keep me going for a year ;D ;D I am very grateful for you kind replies.  And Dave, if comments could get comments/likes......, well yours would have gotten a lot, you are a true hero my friend, and I hope I one day will be fortunate enough to meet you in person and have a few red ales and a jam with you !!!

Thanx guys !!!

Amazing! I can't add much to what's already been said.

Great prog-rock and your arrangement is just killer...never heard mellotron flutes played quite like that before! Super-clean production and performance. Seriously great work, Geir.
