Not bad, Stan. The backing is very poppy, almost Beatle-y. Your trademark CSNY guitar & harmonies flavour the mix. Playing & mix is clean, lyrics are clever in places, the restraint in the playing is admirable. The only 'flaw' I heard was the backing vocal carrying on at the end of the 2nd chorus after the lead vocal dropped out. But I can't complain too much, this song has an ending of sorts!

Nice arrangement and mix Stan -- very pleasant to listen too. I would have done an extend and fade out at the end -- but then, I fade out on almost all my stuff.
Regards, Tom

Thanks Mike & Tom for your comments. I noticed the extended harmony vocals as well. I also feel that the guitar solo was over-volumed so I'm going to run it through a flanger and put it back in a new mix. That way I can take care of the vocal flaw as well.
I really appreciate your support. Have a Happy New Year! Stan

Nice, Stan. I think this is one of your best. Like Mike said, kinda snappy. Keep up the good work. Collin

Thanks Collin for listening.
It seems like when I cut the # of chords down in a song I get better results (cleaner maybe); simplify the structure a little. Still, I don't want every song to start sounding the same.
