● The song is quite good, technically - me being a novice - I get it that it's quite intricate ... Sound-wise it's nice and breezy so to speak. Michael Williams (IT expert & web designer, 2012)
● First observation: you are composing songs with exceptional length, not the standard length of three and a half minutes. Second observation: If one closes the eyes one can hear well the rays of the sun. Third observation: The song was worked through thematically. Fourth observation: You have maintained your inclination for melancholic ballads. Conclusion: I'm impressed, once again. Dr. Heribert Möllinger (doctor & composer, 2012)
