That's as natural and "organic" as it gets! That's what I am going for. Thanks for listening and commenting. It's quite different, and one I really like.

Nice job Tom , rolls nicely. The Alleluia reminds me of Choen I would go so far to say that any song with a "Hallelujah, Halleluiah, or Alleluia" in it will remind us of Choen.

Wow Thomas that is special. Heartfelt is an understatement.
The simple arrangement brought out the honesty and beauty of your song.
Very touching,
Tom

Good song, Tom. If you are open to suggestions, I think trying a slightly slower tempo and then you could put more emotional punch into a lyric that has humbly beautiful lines like "you saved me from myself." Also, when you sing 'alleluia' in the second half of the chorus, you are actually doubling the Cohen melody and rhythm, there, "mi sol la...la" Just my thoughts on your song, no more, no less. Mike

Tom Thanks Tom.......sorry, for not getting back sooner. Good song, Tom. If you are open to suggestions, I think trying a slightly slower tempo and then you could put more emotional punch into a lyric that has humbly beautiful lines like "you saved me from myself." Also, when you sing 'alleluia' in the second half of the chorus, you are actually doubling the Cohen melody and rhythm, there, "mi sol la...la" Just my thoughts on your song, no more, no less. Mike Thanks Mike..... I wrote it and recorded it, right after. there are a hundred different way I can sing it. My wife likes it, so I'm happy. I really don't think anyone cares if it sounds like Cohen's song. Not many care at all!
