I wouldn’t call this “simple”.
One can that you put in this song a lot of passion and respect.
Just awesome.

I use the word “simple”, cause i feel little when i listen to some people in CCmixter! The masters :)

Anyway, thanks a lot for your kind words, donniedrost!

Ooo… this is so niiiiice… It has a bit of a 70s vibe to me. I really dig how you changed the pitch on “just drive”- really cool and effective idea. The crunchy guitar is a great contrast to the soft, dreamy pads… I like how this slowly builds to the climatic, full spectrum ending. Thank you, DICE.

Never imagined this turning into a Supertramp/Styx prog rock power ballad. It actually works - has a lot of power, feeding the lyrics’ darker meanings.

Definitely a driving, open top and sun on the face song.

Nice touches throughout. Subtle but makes the whole package work really well.

I like how you always keep it interesting Dice. A lot of subtle differences throughout the song.

I’m with the Admiral. I hear Supertramp in this too. Love the inventive twists and turns of all your compositions

In the first moment I was sure a Patti Smith song is starting and in the building up I believe to hear the Springsteen roots. Maybe I am just to ensnared in this first impression.
But I am sure that this an amazing remix, a brave and very convincing interpretation of TSAN`s track!
Cheers cheers cheers my friend

Forgot to say that this last interlude was ingenious and that beside all mentioned bands this is famous Diceman´s work!!!!
