I like this. Nice sounding mix in the cans.
Well done. Amber's vox fit nicely. And yep... a good instrumental choice as well.

Wow, Amber's voice is so beautiful. You gotta be bursting-at-the-seams proud. Song and production is a great vehicle for her to soar. Well done!

Beautiful melody and changes. Amber has such a beautiful voice. Where does she get that? Man, you have so much family fun. It would be fun to visit you. After dinner we'd retire to the sound stage where the Simmons perform some real family magic. I am so happy for all of you, and so grateful for your sharing it with us. Always inspiration, Dan.

Best Mix Evaaar!  Ok, you already know it's a great song, and Amber does a knockout job singing it. And I agree with floyd jane - excellent work on the piano (and strings)! But... it feels like the drum and vocals don't always land on the beat at the same time. i don't know if that's intentional or not. Anyway, lovely bit of music.

David...thanks again for your comments and thoughts...yeah, Amber thinks the same thing you mentioned about the beats....as per my posts these are older vocal recordings that I'm trying to marry to new instrumental tracks and sometimes the marriage has some rubs (as all marriages do :))...I may experiment with different styles (to improve the marriage)...Dan
