Honestly, I’m not really drawn to Kristin’s raw power vocal style. That said, you’ve produced a rich, warm backing that soothes and relaxes. The lower frequencies sound well inter weaved on my cans and the higher end strings keep things fresh (love string work near the end). Yup, I likes.

You put Kristin against an unexpected (not from you, but for her) backdrop and make it sound good and natural. Good stuff!

Lovely. Just lovely.
I imagine this is what Joe Cocker would sound like as a woman :-)

Really nice Joe. I do like Kristins smokey vocals and you’ve managed to fit her against a contrasting backing.
Love the bass, and as always your keys and strings are right on!

well I am drawn to her vocals (more than is probably healthy) and this treat is just plain wild.

Please don’t take this wrong way but I’m thinking it was all done with a big wink - the same way Sid Vicious covered “My Way” and Patti Smith doing “You Light Up My Life”.

Putting everything else aside, this arrangement is quite the achievement - I mean just knock-your-socks-off melding of the vocals with the arrangement.

Now, please, stems… ;)

this has your full blown love of lush orchestration - perhaps part of your signature style. Nice job in production - carries the mood of the vocal. Enjoyed it!

I had to come back to let you know that I love hearing Kristin’s raw, emotional voice in the context of your lush, satiny mix — this juxtaposition is inspired!

The “rockeuse”, and the “poète”..Nice union..I like the way that you serve this very beautiful voice and this beautiful melody..Simply..Modestly..Good and emotional work..
