i hear a lot of 60s and 70s influence in this song...one of those tune in and tune out songs ...something Pink Floyd would create...  oh yeah i'm feeling it...

mmm... The metalophonetypething is nice @ the beginning. Lovely harmoies, lovely lyrics. Haha! The drummy bit is funky! Definately Floydy at beginning, and then gets more Supertramp.
The crunchy guitar sounds great! Oh yeah! Very groovy!
I think I would've had a solo-y fadeout, and I'd've liked to hear more of those strings from the beginning, but that's just me.
I keep going back to hear that intro. It's SO good.

 Let me try this again I agree with Agent and Evil that this beginning has a Pink Floyd Feel to this..secondly the groovy bass track with the sweet sounds of the guitar are wonderful..drumming is great and as always Gene your lyrics are so wonderful. I love this collab that you and Mick have done..this is without a doubt a #1 hit.. playlisted my friend..without a doubt

I would agree there are elements of Pink Floyd here, also later in the track I heard elements of Blue Oyster Cult...but it is also the unmistakeable distinctive magic of far4now music - original, soulful, and moody. Mick's original backing is great and very well produced, and Gene has added direction and emotion to form an awesome combination. Love those vocal harmonies and the guitar - top class work/collab

Holy crap this is really freaking cool. Those vocals are excellent, the melodies are rich. The one keyboard sound is a little. . strange when it's left on its own (though in the mix with the vocals and everything it sounds very cool.)
That weird guitar solo is cool too.
Very nice, guys. dig it.

I will steer clear of comparisons on this one and express how the song makes me feel...
I like the vibe on this as it does have its roots in English progressive and blues rock. 
The lead vocal lines are really expressive and the effects are subtle enough to where they do not compromise the integrity of the track...
Nice guitar licks, simple and melodic that follow the song very well and of course "Mick on Bass" and drum/key programming... splendid

When the delightfully warped doorchime intro grew up/blew up, that put me in mind of "The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking"-era Roger Waters, for some reason. A large part of that was the vocals, I think.
This isn't your strongest work lyrically, but the sheer scope of the subject, such an abstract notion and one that's been the impetus of so very many songs...you really challenged yourself, whether that was your intention or not. And challenging people to do a bit of introspection, to fundamentally change, if that's what they feel compelled to do by that self-evaluation...that's a pretty tough sell for a song.
But a worthwhile goal.

Whoa....You've really been pushing the envelope of creativity with this. I really like how this starts with the minimalistic foreboding introduction. When the drums kick in, it has a great late 70's pop feel that put a smile on my face. I really like what you did with the guitar. It seemed to lose the groove somewhere in the middle of the guitar solo....maybe polish that up a bit??? Otherwise, an excellent endeavor my friend.

overall a good listen ..... but i am still waiting to hear a "clean" vocal track out of you ....... The effects take away something in your voice that i cant explain ....... you just sound so much better without the effects imo.

I like the vocal harmonies in the start of the song.
At first I thought this song sounded like it had 80's influences... but later it has 60's-70's sounds.
Part of the guitar solo reminded me of a Zappa solo.
Beautiful job guys. Great sounding piece here.

I love the haunting harmonies at the top of this track really set a neet and evokative atmosphere.
Love the tones on the guitar solo at 2:10 - 2:51.
I like this. I feel myslef wishing for a little more space in the mix - a wider panorama, not that I'm fighting to hear elements of the mix, but that there is so much in there that a wider spread would add to the musical-mind journey.

I loce that wimsical strings and piano(?). Vocals are beautifully done, I must say. It has a Pink Floyd charm about it, like early Floyd.
Pretty captivating too. I love how the piano fades into the background, yet you still know its there, doing its work very subtly.
Loving it! Can it be downloaded?
