Lovely song. Fine set of lyrics and very gentle and peaceful melody. Beautifully presented and made me feel all mellow. Guitar solo was very nice, too. What's not to like?

I reckon this would work on a pure acoustic if you wanted to keep it really simple  :)

It's nice and catchy, too. Before I pressed play all I could hear in my head was the Beatles' Tell My Why but as soon as it started I forgot all about their song.

A nice timeless piece. Has a sound that seems to invoke a retrospective glance at a time long past. Beautiful sound!!!! I like the song, Shadow......good stuff!
Thanks for the listen!

Yo Kev.

Good to see and hear you around again man.  :)

A stripped back KNMac is not what I was expecting,but a good song is a good song,the rest is only trimmings.
Your talent for emotive vocals is shown here to be in fine shape.

Ta for the listen.  8)

Hey Kevin - I always get something new from your songs - there's always a balance of directness and subtleties and always something to listen for.

Very gentle and atmospheric; the chorus in particular has a catchiness to it which feels very comforting. And the blend of all the sounds is so smooth and well chosen.

If I had a question, then it might be: does the easy-listening style match the (abandoned) emotion of the lyric? No matter, a very good listen indeed.

Well crafted. Fab key changes and synthy atmosphere. I love the way your music takes me off on a little trip somewhere. Nicely done. Thanks for another lovely journey :)

Yet another great song in the seemingly endless flow of great stuff from you. Not much to say really, the guitars are great and your vocals are as always superb. Solid song. Not sure about the "strings" though. I can see how the start the build up before the electric and drums come in and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that but I can helt thinking that this one would have worked great with just that acoustic throughout (would require some variation though). But that is just my personal opinion of course, fab work mate!

Can't fault the sound or production Kevin.

The song has a nice feel and amply creates the quiet mellow mood you were obviously after.

I think I prefer it when you 'get bigger' though. It'd still be mellow...but just....get bigger!
Take it easy.

You can check my stuff out here. Mini-album getting bigger slowly. Free download if you're poorer than me.
