Steve, I like the occasional unexpected note in the melody. The song does sound 60s-ish like maybe Gilbert O'Sullivan? (Wow, don't know how that name popped into mind.)
Well done.
-Bjorn

Nicely done. It has that overall ambience that puts me in a good mood.
North rim of the Grand Canyon?
-Bjorn

Lynn, you have an unmistakable voice and it sits really well in your music.
Good structure to the song, good mix and also I like all the accompanying stuff going on in the background.

As markno mentioned, something sounds just a little out of sync around 3:30.
I thought the tempo could be increased, maybe 5 bpm. Other than that I really enjoyed the listen.

-Bjorn

Real nice laid back feel to this.
Good choice of chord changes.
This might be the best I've heard from you  Larry.
-Bjorn

That was very impressive Jerry. Not sure if the main instrument is a processed human voice but it lent itself well to galaxy traveling.
I've done a few space videos but always with NASA images. Pretty cool that you're using your own images.

-Bjorn

I thought it was Dumbledore on 1st read, but nothing Harry Potter in the vid.
I love travel videos of places I've never been and probably never will. Just excellent production here, the video and the music and the horizons were all level.  One of your best Nigel!

-Bjorn

Rex, while listening to this great song I got a nostalgia wave for 70s music, songs by James Taylor, Jackson Browne and others probably well before your time. I don't know, they're just well crafted songs that hit that emotional spot in your head. So,  well done with that but I did want to hear something more engaging in the solo, maybe a more melodic line.
-Bjorn

noynekker (Bruce?)  Thank you.  I wasn't sure if the orchestral part really fit so I appreciate your comment.

Andy  I can't get enough of that eerie mood a classical guitar song can generate.  Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check it out.

daryl  Thank you.  I'm glad you mentioned that intro part.  Kind of simple but I worked on it for a long time.

Nigel, Thank you. Appreciate the comment as always.

-Bjorn

I always pay attention to the accompaniment tracks because there's always something there to learn (and steal)

I like what was going on in the background, kind of subtle and simple but effective.
-Bjorn

Spanish Guitar

I've always liked classical guitar music. I wrote a song a few years in a "Spanish" scale and here's another one.

Thanks for listening/comments.

Paul, I really like the song esp the storytelling!

-Bjorn

Very engaging song and Still sounds great.
Kind of reassuring that  creative efforts can live on  after you're gone.
(The older I get the more I think about these things.)
-Bjorn

Those things that are hard to put in words can be better said in music.
Take care
-Bjorn

Thanks Lynn. I appreciate the comment.
Thanks Freddy.  Yeah, the sun did come out but didn't help much. I think my visit coincided with a spell of bad weather.
-Bjorn

Hi Freddy
Very nice  accompaniment track to this and I really like the transitions between sections. Well done.
I think it's been shown that a lie told often enough  becomes the truth.
-Bjorn

Nicely done. I agree with the other comments about the voc being a bit too low. Didn't know what was going on in the story but I made up my own.

I once helped a guy make a movie in public areas. Mostly went okay except for the airplanes, the screaming kids and people wanting to know what we were up to. So I can imagine what it was like making your vid.

-Bjorn

Thanks Steve.  I appreciate the comments.
-Bjorn

Great lyrics! Totally enjoyed the listen.
Usually you listen to a song and you settle in to the style after a few bars, but this one makes you wonder what's coming up next. Very well done.
-Bjorn

Great song. Love the guitar! The overall sound gives me kind of a mystical vibe if that makes sense to anyone.
-Bjorn

Edit: I just noticed my comment is about the same as  hidden symmetry's above.  Great minds...

Very cool video. As well as the instrument I like the music scale you used which gives the song a kind of exotic touch.

Orkney and Shetland Islands trip

I don't remember if I ever posted this 12 min video of my trip to the Orkney and Shetland Islands in 2013.
I don't have anything else worthwhile to post so thought I'd dig into my old stuff.
Thanks for watching/commenting.
-Bjorn

I really like this song! Vocal stands out very well.
I like all the extra bits in the background too.
-Bjorn

Catchy tune and nicely arranged.
You can always depend on Nigel to come up with a professional caliber production.
-Bjorn

Sometimes less is more and the song certainly proves it.
Elizabeth has a beautiful voice. Really stands out in the song.
I recognized a couple of Daryl's trademark chord changes in there.
Well done!
-Bjorn

There's a lot going on in the music, all the different instruments interacting with each other developing the theme.
Lot of hard work put into this and i think you did an excellent job!
-Bjorn
