Mac,
I love it! Your music always evokes a strong capturing mood quality--a cool thing!
I like the reverb, but would like it "slightly" reduced only on the chorus where it's multi-vox there to enhance clearity--JMO. Really nice write here Mac!

Bill,
I'm glad the feeling came through. this was an off the cuff jam I had with myself(no melody in mind)...and I was stuck for subject matter to write about......I stood at the window while listening to the music and watched crows play in the wind, ducking, weaving, chasing each other.....my mind went to migratory birds for some reason......ding! what would it be like to have to cross oceans non stop.........harrowing. Thanks for the spin.

Hey Mac,
I listened to this earlier today but didn't have time to comment. I wanted to come back and tell you how much I enjoyed this tune. Very atmospheric. Loved the chorus. It really capture you in the vibe of the music, if that makes sense. Wonderful. Congrats on another great write.

Hi Mac:
A really "uplifting" song. Well produced and the vocal has that "today" feel with exceptional backing. It's ready for the big time. Best of luck with it. Enjoyed... and it does have that Seagull or Hang Glider feel to it. Refreshing and cool.

Yeah, kind of looks like the one bird is the lead singer, and the others are singing harmony. Ideally eagles woulda been better, but it does fit pretty well.

First CNN album vibe for me....and that's good in my book. A VERY enjoyable ethereal feel. Great listen!
