Very nice song, you have a lovely voice! Nice and clean recording. Love the arrangement with cello and harp. Nice job! I would really enjoy reading the lyrics.

Outstanding!

I have too many good things to say about it (& no time to write them...sorry), but trust me, it's good!

Keep on doing what you're doing and get it out there for lots to see...IMO you could be on your way.

Nice Job, I enjoyed the song and video.

I'm interested in your guitar, is it a Barclay branded Harmony Sovereign?
Has it been re-braced to X bracing?

thanx dungbeat for the kind words!

and tonesrchin too. so happy for the nice comment!

downtime, its this model, (not my pic) mine doesnt feel like its built very well and thee wood looks like its taken from some cheap furniture. i think its been x-braced from the beginning but the x-bracing was made differently by the guy who sold it to me. i compared the one i bought with another, same model and rebuilt in the same way by recording them. it was a big difference actually. i wanted to buy his LG-2 but after all the comparisons i just couldnt justify that.

interesting link about the guitar there! i didnt realize its all mahogny till now. magogny can differ so much in color and the tone is somehow more brilliant compared to my lg-0.

WOW !~!~!

I'm a retired 67 year old man, in the 60's I was a Viet Nam protesting hippie musician, and that video (very well done by the way) could have been from my youth.....same as it ever was..........

To the music, bravo. You have a very polished voice, the music suits the tone and the video editing is very good.

To me the best music sets a mood, or tells a story, makes people think, stirs up memories or emotions, you feel it.

Very, very well done, congratulations...........
