If I was even half as good at slide guitar as you've got in this song I'd wanna put it in everything too, this is beautiful. The build at the end with the refrain and backing vocals really makes for a lovely moment, just great.

gorgeous version of a tender song. this really hit me in the feels.

and yeah, i think the slide playing sounds great. you are so good with melodies and that comes through in your guitar playing as well. as usual your harmonies are so tastfully placed and support/ elevate the main vocal.

it may not be a recent loss, but i'm sure revisiting the song might have brought some things up. sending some love your way this week.

Haha but this is Week 16

The song is great as is, the recording this way makes it feel like a live performance, and thus very intimate, genuine, unedited. This is capturing the immediacy of lofi anti-folk without the pretentious parts of that. I like it a lot.

And the composition is very good as well, this is release-worthy!

Gorgeous song, you're WBs are sooo good. Beautiful melody and playing. The slide guitar sounds great! (I admit I'd put slide guitar on everything if I knew how to play). Sorry to hear about your loss.

It's beautiful. And that outro was especially powerful.

Wow this is so beautiful. Fantastic work, love the vocal layering. The subtle reverb on them is so good.

I really like the subtle differences in the guitar doubles, adds a lovely bit of movement.  It's funny that you mention you feel like you slide playing is "mediocre" because I actually noted how well placed it was in the track on the first listen through.  I think it sounds quite nice in this track.  Also I really like the stereo width on the vocals, creates a nice contrast between the sections, and captures a nice sense of growing energy and keeps pace up as you build to the final chorus.  Lovely track.

so gooooood! Favorited. The background guitar that starts in the second verse *chefs kiss* great build at the end as well.

Awww shucks, thank you. Sorry for being a bit self-deprecating, I think my self-described mediocrity is my frustration with how many takes I have to do to write a line I like, play it well enough, and then double-track it. Comments like yours make that process feel worth doing

Thank you! Will keep sliding and working on it Appreciate the love, definitely some catharsis from recording and sharing this one.

Indeed don't know how I got that wrong haha. Thanks so much! This time I was able to keep (almost) every track as a single recording, something I should aspire to do more. Your words are so kind

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it There's never a better time to learn

Thank you

Thanks so much! I'm glad, always fighting the temptation to crank the reverb.

I'm so glad you liked it, thank you I finally came up with a guitar part I liked and it took a while to double it well enough. Some earlier takes were more different than similar it sounded pretty crazy

Awww thank you

Thank you so much
