Yo Neil,

First of all those licks and the guitar solo are very nice.

Like the doubling of the vocals in places.

A very nice song and easy listen.

Sounds great

I really like the lyrics - as said above making rain a positive is an interesting concept - especially perhaps as we spend a lot of time complaining about it over here :-)!

Gorgeous guitar as well. I really enjoyed this @Neil C

Came back for a second listen, and liked it even better the second time around.  This is now my favorite Neil Connor song. 

I also came up with a suggestion.  In the first verse, two consecutive lines say,  "I've been searching,  -  I've been searching." 

I would suggest "I've been searching - to find my freedom" to avoid the repetition.

Verlon,

‘My favorite Neil Connor song tm :-)

Interesting point about repetition, these lyrics were by someone else so I don’t want to amend them and in the context of this song, which sounds redemptive feels appropriate to me. Reappearing lines part of the songwriters toolkit, but needs to be used soaring imho.
