  • Shem from OzThe words are fine as they are personal and speak of his experience as he was going through it at the time of writing. The music is good too but somehow the whole thing as a package did not manage to touch me.
  • Michael from Adelaide, South Australia One of the most beautiful of songs.
  • Clint from Melbourne, AustraliaYes..I tend to agree, this is also my favorite track from the album, just love the Piano but there isn't enough of it to send you flying...however the steady rhythmic bass notes throughout kinda makes up for it, nice one Neil....18/4/09
