you’ve made me cry….and i’m certain my mom will cry when she hears it too. thank you so much….this is so beautiful. peace.

Back to listen to this again today. Agree completely with the Kim Carnes comparison - this is very well constructed timeless pop. Nice one.

Your instrumentation reminds me of ToTo…and That’s a really good thing! I think music would benefit if more arrangers share this perspective of making music.

You are the master of sounds selection for simply and emotional beauty songs creations. Absolutly great.

It’s too easy to assign “periods” to music, when music is created in this time and this place with this technology or that technology and all sorts of awareness of things before and things that may yet come.

Yet I still got an early 1980s vibe from this production, which I found very pleasing. The warmth of the treatment resonates and pulls the listener in. The whole mix feels comforting.

Love the wide open atmosphere on this lovely ballad.

Waoo..touched..!!!
Your sound and harmonizing of keyboard are just splendid…

Fantastic arrangement and sound selection on this. I loved Snowflake’s version but you took it to another level. Perfect! This is exactly the reason I don’t listen to radio. The music here is so much better~!

My first listen of the day truly hits home.— You got me!!!
Glad it was this one.
All thumbs up!!

Flawless and gorgeous as always Shadow. I noticed some mentioned Kim Carnes as a comparison. To me it reminds me a bit of Boy Meets Girl.

Your arrangement and chord selection works so perfectly with Snowflake’s voice.

Beautiful!

Another one for my LS playlist in the iPod.

Beautiful.

A warm and fittingly respectful interpretation of a tragic story.

Woh, finally stopped listening long enough to review: such a mindful, heartfelt treasure. Forget thumbs, this one needs to come with hankies…

I agree with Gurdonark, if I understand him, that associations with time or genre based on an instrument or production sound can be a distraction from the music itself. Anyway, this sounds like the vocals were written simultaneously with the backing track. Nice.

You consistently set the standard all of us hope to someday reach. Another amazing track by two of the best. Brilliant work.

Agree coompletely with BarryMorgan. Respectful work i’d say.

Honestly, certain mixes of yours including (nay… especially) this one remind me of being a kid in the 80’s and listening to synth pad based power ballads on the wireless… ok, I’m not that old… more like bruno brooks and the top 40 on radio 1. I’d record tracks like this onto a C60 chrome tape… coz chrome was better somehow.

…And if anyone is in doubt, the 80’s ruled because of the music… not so much because of the shoulder pads and big mobiles.

This song and the story behind it drives tears to my ears every time I listen to. My daughter likes it, too, it’s up on her Ipod. Good musical taste she has got…

How is this not a hit?
