Hits the nostalgia-for-days-gone-by spot in my head. Beautiful song. The music lives on. -Bjorn

Sounds like a professional production to me. Very well done. Enjoyed it. -Bjorn

Even if I didn't know the story behind the song, I would have felt the pain since you expressed it so well in the song. -Bjorn

This is one of those songs where I'll wait in the driveway for the song to finish before pulling into the garage. I don't think I've heard a cover of the song before, maybe because of its unique sound, but you did a nice job of it Steve. -Bjorn

I like the lyrics. You're expressing your feelings and they're coming across very well. Pretty catchy melody too that's staying with me after listening. The song might need a bit more variation but on the whole it's very well done. -Bjorn

Wookie, I'm truly sorry to hear about all you've gone through recently. It's a lot to handle but you'll get through it. "In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer."

I love it when the cello comes in. There's just something about that sound. It kind of surprises me at first because it's not that common with guitars, but then I think yeah it's perfect. Anyway, great job, you and Gary. -Bjorn

I have no idea what a hurricane is like, never mind two of them. Glad you survived! I like the classic blues thing that you do. They fit in with your stories well. Always a pleasure to hear your songs Freddy. -Bjorn

The trumpet sounds great! It fits in really well with that very smooth and cool background. Nice! -Bjorn

Ross, I like the animated swooping sounds and the piano focus at the start and end. Very well done. Enjoyed it a lot -Bjorn

Synchronicity Just an old fashioned song built around a nice melody. I was going for something Appalachian sounding using the new Appalachian instrument by Indiginus but it didn't work out that way. What I did get is pretty nice anyway, at least I think so. This is the first time I'd used EW Backup Singers. They sound really good but might be a little over the top? String instrument is Fiddle by Bolder Sounds. I like this one better than the Indiginus Fiddle but they're both good. Thanks for listening/comments. -Bjorn EastWest Backup Singers Indiginus Appalachia Bolder Sounds Fiddle

David Lynch lives on. Cool video and song. I like it. -Bjorn

Jesse, it is a great song and you're a great friend to share it. Thanks. -Bjorn

jack c., amberwolf, equality, noynekker Omnisphere is my desert island synth - the only one I'd need. Isn't it about time for Omni 3?? Thanks for the comments. Appreciate it.

Beautiful song, Steve. That percussive beat in the background works really well. There's something about the guitar during the chorus that really boosts the emotions (in me anyway) Great job as always. -Bjorn

Have to admit I was a little put off by the vocal effect. but it grew on me after the 2nd listen. I like the two personalities playing off each other and the overall energy of the song. Nicely done. -Bjorn

Passages The theme has kind of a middle eastern sound which I came up with, but it seems a bit familiar? Can't place it so not sure if it's some well known bit of melody or not. Anyway, here it is. Omnisphere Falcon AAS Ultra Analog Thanks for listening/comments. -Bjorn

Seems more like Van Morrison genre to me. Wonderful song, enjoyed it a lot. The mix is super clear which my decrepit ears appreciate. The ending is bit abrupt. Great job on this. From the Sound Cloud comments I gather you're Swedish? -Bjorn

Nicely done. I like it. Wondering if you extracted the vocal using stem separation technology? Anyway, the vocal sounds really good even after 40 years. Maybe bring it up just a bit though. -Bjorn

The vocal libraries work very well in your productions. Do you need to do some pitch correction on them to fit the key? I like the steady percussion beat in the background which is subtle enough to not be so noticeable but gives it a lot of tension. -Bjorn

Wookie, I expect to hear another of your spacey creations real soon. Hoping the best for you.

Mark, I love the guitar part which is kind of simple but beautiful and you played it beautifully. Wasn't sure if a male vocalist could make the lyrics work but you did. All around excellent. -Bjorn

I think I'd recognize the Wookie style anywhere. Liking that main lead synth. Tempo change at ~3:00 seemed to accelerate or maybe I just expected it to. Nice change up. Good job! -Bjorn

Comes across to me as honest emotion, especially in the chorus. Maybe a little reverb there would help emphasize the emotion even more? Very clear lyrics which I appreciate. Didn't need the lyrics in text form. -Bjorn

Well done production. Vocalist comes across well in the mix but I didn't understand most of the lyrics probably because of my decrepit ears. Very contemporary sound which you don't hear much of in this forum. -Bjorn
