that is so incredible Hook....what a gift for your daughter.... it's lovely and a great statement of your love for her... if not now then someday she will cherish this... I wrote a song about my daughter (who turned 18 in March...lol I'm 61).... when she was just a few months old but I have never recorded it...
great song...
I am thinking your daughters name is Ember?  anyway....great song and a great gift ....congratulations.

Dazzling number Hook. Such a high caliber of songwriting and vocal performance here, and the mixture of synth and uke works surprisingly really well. I also love that main synth line, how'd you get the sound? It sounds awesome... or should I say this whole song is awesome :)

Wow, this is a stunner! I absolutely love the big production values here and you absolutely nailed it IMO. The sound is lush and full, the pads/synths sound fab and the ukes, especially the lead, are fantastic. Your vocals are superb as always, but the mixing and production is spot on because they are perfectly centred in the mix and nice and clear, which really makes them the focus of the music. Which is exactly how it should be, because the lyrics and sentiment behind the song are wonderful.

You did a superb job here and should be proud of what you achieved. I hope she likes it.......

A lot of emotion went into this. Well written lyrics, and you are in great voice here. Beautiful music to support it.
I'm sure she will treasure the album.
