Hey Warren, You've got some cool production on this . The lead into "I know this trip..." and "I've got to pay attention..." is great. Also the change up with the drums at the "Curled in the dim lamplight" makes that part a stand out. Always enjoy your songs. BTW, I see you got some honors for "Production-Mixed Vocals" on "Loves Oblivion". Nice job! Dave

Hey Warren.Goin' out with a bang eh!Nice track.Super production, and I love that guitar.My thoughts on the vocals are as always:KEEP SINGING YOUR OWN SONGS!!!Don't stay away too long, and keep in touch by PM.Cheers Mate,Dave.

thanks dave--thanks for the mention of the other tune, i think it's probably dropped off by now~ but we don't throw them back!thanks again dave, all the best,warren

and thanks DAVIE! my buddy from across the big one...yeah, i try like hell on the vocals, but there is just so much a 57 year old can warble, no? BUT THANKS!! yeah, i like the production allot, took awhile, back and forths, but that's the way it's supposed to be! this new kid i tried did a great job...all the best,wh

Really nice track Warren. Love the 'blue' notes in the piano outtro; play 'em loud and proud I always say!My only nit. This has an overall alternate vibe to my ears, and the harmonized guitar lines feel out of place to me. Sort of like Brian May sitting in with Death Cab for Cutie or something...., could be just me though.Great piece of work, best of luck

thanks tele man!hell that guitar harmony is my fav part (except for the piano work...he did a great job! LOL...even brought them up for the instrumental version...but i appreciate your words...all the best, keep up the good work yourself!!warrenps: now that aint your pix, looks like a black lab to me, i have a yellow--great dogs! (as he vacuums the carpet...

Hey Warren! Like it a lot, Looove the piano part. Maybe you should listen to Dave and sing your own songs, hey, "nice" voices depend sometimes on the producer ( new one, huh?) if you think Sting has a "nice" voice, think again.OT: Had labs, if you think they shed a lot, try a pug!

Hey Warren,I haven't heard all of your songs, but this is by far the best I have heard from you - shades of Pink Floyd. The production on the track is great. I like the guitars.This has a very abstract and surreal feeling to it - almost dreamlike which is in great part due to the lyrical content being married to the sparse instrumentation.Good way to go that's for sure.Best,Cisko

thanks brinda,,,,yeah, them pugs are cuties in a ugly kinda way...you know what i mean, not "pug bashing." LOL.. yes, on the production, and yes on the production of my vocals, though i really should have redone, redid, do-over? the whole thing. and cisko kid--"you're a friend of mine"--remember that one...LOL...thank you for those comments, and i have to agree with your assessment, this tune took 4 friggin years to get to this point... and the producer brought out the best of a good tune...but is anything ever done?all the best,wh
