It was ok For me, a 10 is Javert in Les Mis so I don't really understand 8.6 on this one but the Packo's lead and the harmonies are quite pretty even if the lyrics are kind of insipid. |

The Beauty of a Still Life Painting.... ...in this song (aided by the beautiful artwork!). The sparkling harp and instrumentals, soaring vocals and harmonies set to the hopeful message. All bathed in a luminous light. I'm inspired :) Downloaded. Thank you both for such a beautiful creation. |

Great Songwriting Tobin, Fabulous songwriting. Wonderful composition and you have sung and played this very well. However the addition of PackoSmokes vocals really make this stand out above a lot of your other songs. I think that this song shows his versatility as a vocalist. Very much so actually. A great collaboration form the two of you. 10's Slimmie |

Breathless Absolutely beautiful. Pack's voice is so string and clear, great high notes and a nice full tone. This soars, and the lyrics are quite beautiful. Thanks, guys. Now, Tobin, I hope you are going to contribute to one of Pack's songs! |

The Professionals speak Glorious work guys...really. Excellent harmonic blend which flows beautifully with the instrumentation. Pretty melodic themes, counterpoint but what I find so stunning is the fluidity....I stand in awe as your work continues to be an inspiration on all levels! Thank you for sharing your talent! My life is enriched. |

Musicals Are Not My Cup of Tea But the performances and production here are stunning. |

Layered simplicity shines A simple work is what is needed to say a simple thing. Even all the (I'm sure) complex harmonies and layers of things you added to this only added to the simplicity of its beauty. How refreshiing and wonderful this is. Thank you! |

beautiful Everything works well together in this song, your two voices, the accompaniment (excellent choice of instruments!) and the production values. I particularly like the length of this song -- not too short, not too long. It's perfect. Wonderful performance and I look forward to more collaborative efforts between you two! |

Very Nice A really lovely song coupled with excellent production values and a superb vocal performance. The standards on this site are really going up. Excellent! |

Unique pairing Now that's a composition with harmony! There's a lot of things to like here. The structure is more than strong. The evolution from sparse to lush and back adds weight to the lyrics, as does the (always) inventive progression in chords. The synth harp, cello, and violin are dynamic and set a particular tone, just right and mixed just so. One wrong move and this could have become cheesy pop, but the sensibilities of performance and production maintain a strong sense of integrity. You two make a great vocal duo. It isn't a pairing I would have thought of, but there is something in the contrasting qualities of your voices that really pays off. Great performances from both of you. Its clear that you each brought sincerity and passion to your efforts. I could use more like this one! |

I keep coming back to this song. It's truly extrordinary and improves with every listen. I can literally see this being acted out on a stage. I tried to resist gushing on my first comment so here it is! Tobin, this is a perfectly crafted song and the vocal melody is very lifting. Packo- your harmonies just send chills down my spine. This is truly an amazing collaboration. Not only have I downloaded this but I have shared this with my family- that is the highest compliment I can offer. |

Yet Another Listen I simply can't get over how wonderful this song is. Excellent song-writing but what really gets to me is the total emotion displayed by both singers. Incredible! Wonderful arrangement and a beautiful vocal gem! Tobin- the lyrics are wonderful and inspiring, as well. |

Big thank-you... ...to aclarke for the tip off to this tune... Very moving lyrics. I can't say anything good enough about the lead vocal...that slightest velvet burr, phrasing and emotion just right...pitch that's perfect... On my system the blend of the two voices, at times, ISN'T completely perfect, but I can hear that it COULD be... I can imagine this set with live instruments and a small chorus...in a nice small hall with decent acoustics...used to be a goodish one at the the Gardner Museum... I'm so glad I got to hear this tune. Great heart to it. Ed |

BEAUTIFUL Simply beautiful. It really touched me! BRAVO |
The contrasting voices combined with the strings really
work so well together. On the money with the additional
energy and power Pack-o brings to the table. Awesome!
This is a beautiful song to listen to!
