Nice lyric, a neat vocal and a short but firefingers lead to boot. A fine performance all round and a very pleasing listen. Damn catchy in fact, the chorus will be lodged in my mind all day.

great collab from you both. i just became aware of pirate's "ditty's" - complete songs in and of themselves - but with your lyrics and added leads this is a smash hit - great hook, vox and music - arrangment is a knockout.

This is very kewl. I knew Pirates tunes were perfect for vocal additions and ripe for collaborations.
I think is really good. A perfect fit - just looking for a place and time to come together... Great Job on this.... Very Well Done

Thank you Mike but, the Pirate does all guitar work~guess my description was a little vague~ I wrote the lyrics and do the vocals didn't think I needed to add
any more instruments to his original work.
Thanx everybody for listens and comments.
we have to offer everyone to show our gratitude!

Very nice melody I like the drums in this a lot, just how they were arranged...adds a unique sound to the song. Music is pro. Vocals are kick ass. I really dig the vocal harmonies. Oh and nice solo around 2:00!! Very nice break. I really really love the chorus in this song. Seems like something you can just close your eyes to and drift away with. Dude, I think this is your best track, definitely Downloaded!

Mmmm, I'm liking the intro of this song alot
I'd like to hear the vocals turned up a lil notch The harmonies are absolutely beautiful and feel quite magical Very nice work far4for 
Thinking of the instrumental track on its own, I'm liking the slow slides a whole lot on the guitar They're so soothening to my ear This was definately begging for lyrics and vocals Nice work on the instrumental composition

Nice tune there guys :tup:
I cant put my finger on it but the vocals seem to be missing dome body.... maybe low range boost?
This is my 3rd listen and the song wears good i just keep getting the feeling that the vocals would really pop if it had a little more low end to it.

Thank you my Son! I appreciate your
input on this song,I took you up on your suggestion that I shouldn't use fx on my vocals and I think that worked out but as I read other comments I'm aware that their
may be other issues so next time you visit
we'll go through it together if ya want..
still have the virtual tracks..see ya soon Eric!

Lovely melody, and really good harmonising too. I do think the vocals could be a little more prominent in the mix, though. The electric guitar parts are great. Is that an e-bow you're using? Excellent solo too. This is really well constructed song - no messing about either, all done and dusted in 3 minutes! Really good work

Nice floating ambiance and soaring harmonies.
It kinda reminds me of some of George Harrison's solo stuff.
Sweet sounds on the electric guitar.
Nice work!!!

Hey Gene and Pirate this is such a great sounding track. I love songs that make me just feel great and this is exactly that. Great guitar progression and excellent melody over the top. beautiful harmonies. I'm having a 2nd listen now and am already singing along. Very catchy track. Thanx, this has brighten what was turning out to be an other wise dark day.

Nice leads on the guitar - that is a really sweet tone.
Fantastic!!!

this is so very smooth and sweet. Those vocals are really nice, there's something special there that I can't really describe but I really like it. Lovely tune. Great job!

Much of what I like most about this piece is one sort of undercurrent or another. That violinish legato guitar does wonderful things for the melody, and the vocal harmonies lend SO much presence without taking up a lot of sonic real estate. The overall vibe fits really well with the lyric without resorting to any gimmicky stylistic affectations.
Deceptively simple and succinct, just like the main metaphorical theme.
Sweet.
