Positive Comments: This poignant ballad tells the story of a young woman’s fight against cancer. We all know women who have fought this battle, and this song describes the emotions so beautifully…it put a lump in my throat and reminded me of my friend Christina, who left 3 kids behind. The vocal is gentle and sweet the instrumentation understated, which is perfect because it doesn’t detract from the storytelling. Love the harmonies. Beautiful job all around. Thank you for writing, recording and sharing this important song.
Constructive Comments: The only thing that might improve this song is possibly – instead of doing self harmonies, ask a couple of other singers to join you. Possibly a male and a female voice. But really, it’s amazing just as it is. Did you write it about a particular friend, or was it a “general” made up story?
