Great song, nice tribute to Andy.

Really like the guitar (and vocal). It sounds great.

Beautiful. Has a lot of heart and soul. Very special.

Oh wow. What a tribute. Hugs to you and emily.

Wonderful contrast on the guitar between the verse and chorus, and all the vocal layering. The love comes through.

I listened, then read the memorial, listened again, read the memorial again. Need to listen more. What a beautiful soul.

Hi Andy heart

Good for andy, there's plenty of time for it now.

A wonderful tribute to Andy.

Love the double tracking, real Elliot Smith vibes.

Delecate and lovely.

Sounds like a beautiful friendship, and many joyful experiences to treasure for a lifetime!

(And here I was, during Euromeet, thinking it was about getting unionized...)
You can really feel this one, great song.

I'm so sorry for your loss jwh. Andy sounds like a wonderful person. This is a beautiful way to remember and honor him.

I'm sorry jwh. What a gorgeous song. Your harmonies are so sweet they're heartbreaking. Stop making my eyes leak.

Wow. I can feel Andy too. Kinda feel like I know him too, listening to this

Uff. I am so sorry. Feel hugged. You found the right tones for Andy. Peace and Love.

What a beautiful, beautiful tribute. Sending lots of love across the world to you. Though I didn't know Andy, reading his obituary I can feel the love that Andy had for those around him, and that he was loved by many and will be greatly missed. I'm sure Andy would have loved to sing this with you. heart

Beautiful song for your friend, what a great way to honour your friendship.  "andy kinda wanted to be older,
find the shamrock inside, andy didn't want a computer, he was happy waiting outside" Don't know how to put it in words but this verse really stuck out for me.

we are always home, sometimes we leave, only time tells, and only at the right time, that we never left. Wonderful my friend!

What a beautiful song, thanks for sharing that link and I am glad I got to learn about Andy

This is beautiful. Read the obituary while listening, sounds like Andy's a special soul. It's really heartwarming he's made such a positive impact on your and your community's lives. Hugs!

A great song for a great person. Love this

Amazing tribute. Sorry you guys lost Andy. Thanks for sharing the obit. He seems like a pearl of a human.

Sorry to hear about Andy. What a great way to capture your friendship and share it with all of us.

So sorry to hear mate.  I'm sure he'll cherish this floating through the aether.

A very thoughtful tribute. heart
