WOW<Alan :o this is definitely one of my favorites of yours, and some of your other songs were pretty hard to beat :)
I think it's the combination of the amazingly poetic lyrics, your beautiful vocals, and that very hypnotic
backing track  :) and that haunting harmonica  :o
I reminds of L Cohen, except your voice is so much better ;)
I'm blown away by your talent, my friend  :)

I think this is the best song that I've heard on the forum so far.  The lyrics are meaningful, exceptionally well sculpted, and the song is absolutely captivating right through to the and.  I likes the surprise of the additional voices, which perhaps could drop back a little on the volume, but they need to stay there. The soulful sound of the harmonica was also the perfect choice.  Beautiful voice too.  10/10 from me.

The electronic element at the beginning puts the stake in the ground that you are doing something different and the rest of the song doesn't disappoint

Your vocal on this is simply STUNNING!

I also really liked that you did something different and I think it paid off in spades

I am not usually a fan of using "spoken word" segments as it tends to be a bit "hit and miss" - for me it is a bulls eye and supports the song beautifully

Someone else already nailed it - the "restraint" is what makes this song so good

An absolutely wonderful piece
