a beautiful introduction. your treatment of the vocal and arrangement is artistic and perfect. you’ve helped me rediscover Briareus. this is an incredibly emotional track and i have a few tears in my eyes.

I like how you’ve left the voice and the story front and centre. All elements of the music and production are there to support and accentuate the narrative. Absolutely beautiful work Stefan.

Sad story, but enjoyable for the story and for the atmosphere that you have created around it. There are very beautiful sad movies and this is one of those

Sehr schön.
Wonderfully edited by you. Keeping the sadness in which is good. Need to swallow a big lumb down now.

I like how you worked with the source material, some if which is familiar to me. I really like how you folded the sitar sounds into the groove. The bass says it all for me, Bravo!

Wow. I love it. Weaves all around but stays together and accents the emotion of the lyric nicely. I’d forgotten how sad this poem is.

Thanks for the nice treatment.
