Big and lush soundscape including the vocals. The drums works very well, I especially enjoyed the snare for some reason. Think the guitars in verse 2 could come up a bit an take centre stage while the synth pad backs off a bit, would give a little variation. Good build up. A touch of the 80s, only missing that big, epic guitar solo in there. Quality stuff as we always expect from you , well done!

This is a lovely ballad, Kev! The stripped back approach really shows off your vocals, and I love how short and concise the chorus is. Great storytelling, and the production is flawless :)

Hi Kev,
Not my style but I will say, Very tight, Vocally and Instrumentally.

Nice work

You evoke the feeling of yearning in this song so strongly. I hear a great emotional outpouring, especially in the chorus when your vocals are so powerfully delivered.

I also really like the harmony vocals kicking in on the second verse. It seems as though you're adding layers to the song as it progresses, building crescendo on crescendo, adding to the dramatic effect.

A wonderful piece.
