Man, that is a sad sad song. Makes me want to shut myself away until the leaves change color. :)

Yeah, I also like the months when I can put on a sweater. They’ll be here, soon enough…

Killer guitar licks, too btw.

Thanks, my man. I really didn’t intend for this to be a sad song. If you take the lyrics alone; there’s maybe some wistfulness present. I guess it’s everything together: Train, piano, and my vocal delivery sounds rather pained.

No, I totally got it. It’s more of a light-hearted sadness that makes you smile. I kind of intended my comment to be a little tongue-in-cheek. To me, your song yearns for autumn the same way this song pleads with a certain girl to leave her biker boyfriend.

A great remix, thank you

I always saw the composition as happy and evem a little bit kitschy. Turning it into a sad song was just the right thing to do. Amazing work.

btw. I am very glad to get remixed by you. I like your work very much, I even remember liking At a Loss that much that I put in incidentally two times on my mp3 player

Thank you very much, remaxim. I appreciate a song all the more, when the person I’m remixing approves of my methods. Your playing is beautiful on this. “At a loss”, huh? I’m trying to remember that one. If I recall correctly; it was an instrumental that was going in a queer direction, and I was “at a loss” regarding what to do.

Nice work. And I mean nice in a very big way. I paid extra for it to take on a very big meaning this time.

I have had a first taste of fall here in Stockholm, and I am both happy to smell it in the air now and glad to head back to Toronto so that I can experience the transition all over again in a month.
