Simple and catchy chorus and really clear intonation. Liked it!

What a lovely start to My day. I am now singing harmony parts to your chorus!

Lovely, gentle and melodic. Great use of repetition in amongst very evocative lyrics.

This is a very pleasant beginning to my day, Ian. I like that you begin with the chorus. It’s stuck in my mind now and I’m smiling 😊. Lovely images and rhythm. Thank you. 😘

Another cracker Ian. I hope you'll record that. It deserves the full treatment. Great lyrics and I like guitar too.

Good song. I like the chord sequence and lyrics that captures the vibe of the song.

I’ve listened to this a few times now, Ian, and really enjoy how you develop the lyrics throughout. Together with the rhythm and chords, you create an other-worldly atmosphere. Good stuff! 💜🎶

What a wonderful idea and I love the creativity you’ve used to craft into a song, Ian. I’ll think I’ll play this to the trees when I’m next on one of my woodland walks. I enjoy your arrangements very much. You always include some interesting instruments in the mix.

Top marks Ian. I really like this. A great sense of atmosphere and history. Lovely arrangement.

I really like the pulse throughout and there are some lovely harmonies. I wanted more of them, I must admit, with more layers, crescendo & diminuendo perhaps.

Beautiful. Congrats to you and your team on a gorgeous song with some Fab production as well.

That’s captivating, Ian. An interesting idea and production.

Love a tiny home. For the latter part of our working lived we managed a campsite and lived in a caravan. For the Winter we went South in our motorhome (even smaller than our caravan). Now we live in Spain in a little "casa" that, by comparison, seems the size of the Royal Albert Hall. (Spoiler Alert - it isn´t.) It would come under the classification of "fairly tiny home" but it has enough room for us, two dogs and a selection of instruments. All of which is a preface to saying I love the song, especially the backing vocals. Written with tea? It comes over in the sweetness of the song. A shining example of what TisT should be about

Delightful ! 😊

Beautiful! 😃 👍

So cute! I loved watching you both enjoying making music.

I’ve loved Lara’s voice & music ever since we were paired in a TisT songwriting workshop. Another delight. A lovely collaboration from two of my favourite Tisters. 🎶💜

As ever, your lyrics are thoughtful and evocative Ian. You perform this sensitively as well. Nice job.

Ace Mr. Ian! Sounding amazing! ❤

Well I really enjoyed that Ian. A keeper I think. Interesting overlay of 1 2 3 and um pa pa over 4/4 I think. A really good song 🎵 👏 👌

I like the arrangement. Not sure it´s in 3/4 but what the hell. Lovely song though

Very enjoyable, Ian! I like your arrangement and the images you create. You’re developing your own unique style & I’m a fan. I’m not sure I have a style yet, so I’m jealous 😉. When Mr. H was in hospital, I found myself dancing with his dressing gown to cheer myself up. Your song made me smile & remember. Thank you. 💜💜

Instrumentation, arrangement, mood, leisurely groove - everything really hangs together . . .

What a fantastic collaboration, Ian. Managing to make it uplifting & joyful at the same times as steeped in melancholy is a remarkable feat. You achieve it splendidly.

Hail to "Sad Orchestra." On the International Sadness Scale, I personally reached a firm "10." Great tune. Hope to hear more from Sad Orchestra!

Very poignant lyrics. Nice arrangement too

You create such a vivid image in my mind with your lyrics, Ian, and I really like how the arrangement builds. The repetition really works too. I’ve listened to it a few times now and it’s today’s earworm 🎶💜.

Wow, love it! 😃👍👏👏😎

Cool ❤

Well done for a beautifully atmospheric piece of music. So glad I could contribute ☺️ Thanks and well done 👍 👌👏😎

Creating this must have been so much fun. Firstly, the imagining; always my favourite part. Then playing around with the psychedelia of the video and music. Very creative.

This is a little gem, Ian. I love the observation & imagery. “She’s singing down the sparrows from the clouds” is a delightful hook and image and the lullaby rhythm & uncluttered melody certainly work for me. Don’t underrate this. Starting the day listening to this has been a joy. 💜💜

OK you beat me on weird!! Takes me back to the 70s, definitely trippy!! Really well done

I really enjoyed this. The whole package worked for me. The lyrics were beautifully cyclical, like the tides. The instruments added to the timelessness, and I really enjoyed the visuals as well. Great package!

Ambient & meditative. So relaxing. I’m looking forward to hearing more! 😊🎶😘

I like different Ian. Real moody piece (in a good way) made me feel nice and relaxed

Lovely hypnotic melody...I enjoyed this

Such a lovely song and arrangement

love this

Edit: removed now, all good!:) bro could you please please please not put a (major) spoiler alert in the description? I've been reading the booking for the past few weeks now, into the final quarter and it's now been spoiled from reading the description. I imagine many others may come here who are currently reading the book

looking forward to hearing it on Friday night

“Memories & enemies pushing at the locks”… strong lyrics amongst many others, Ian. Some boxes within our heads are best opened with caution.

There are some beautifully crafted lyrics in there. There is a sense of sadness and longing. Great job!

What a cool find. This is so lovely. You write good songs Mr. Ian ;-)

Beautiful, atmospheric arrangement, Ian.

Wonderful stuff both of you..

Can you comment the lyrics… fans from malaysia

Good song - enjoyed listening.

I love how you manage to craft the ideal soundscape for your songs. The mood is always set perfectly for your your story lines. Good stuff!

There is more soul in a good Irish folk tune than in any genre on earth. This certainly fits that description in my book. Wonderful tune. Would love to hear more.
