Hey Nelson,
Beautiful tune mate.
Nits and crits ?
To me, it needs cuts in the musical arrangement where there is too much happening under the vocal melody line.
Solution ? Do that old Nashville thing where the instrumentation just comes in now and again in a voice/musical response kinda way. Keep simple chord backing, and use those counter melodies to play off / bounce off the main vocal line.
This would be a magical song to arrange. It has so many possibilities.
Good luck with it.
cheers, niteshift Oops... Sorry I'm so late responding. I appreciate the input on the arrangement. I was going for some sort of mix of current day and classical era sound. (1700 - 1800s) I've been reading up on Bach's use of counterpoint melodies but of course he had the good fortune of not having a wanna be singer screaming all over his compositions.  Again_thank you much for stopping by

"Sometimes reaching a goal earlier than planned is a great achievement. It shows you have worked hard, pushed ahead and made it happen. However, sometimes reaching a goal far past your original deadline, long after you wanted to complete it, and after the accolades you might once have gotten for the achievement are over, it is an even greater achievement. This shows you never gave up, due to adversity, deficit, criticism and those little life detours that end many dreams and goals. In many ways, this is a reason for even more pride!" -Brian Austin Whitney
