What is that instrument at 2:00? Harmonica?

Yeah its a harmonica. Cheaper than the one I used on Oasis last year because my only nice one is in C. I have a set of cheap ones in various keys. Almost didn't have time to include those two solos I tracked many takes earlier in the day but pasted them in blindly in the last 15m before the deadline so the transitions are a bit rough 😂

Oh wow ... that piano! Gorgeous! Sorry actively listening and that was such a nice surprise lol.

Love the lyrics and vocals on this. It's got a rawness that suits the rest of the track, and it's really legible and clear - you want us to hear the words and we do. And fuck that harmonica is amazing. I am full of the enthusiastic profanity tonight.

This is great all round and has a very reggae/island feel  ... just really nice and chill. Amazing.

Love the chill vibe. And I can just feel that lovely moment floating on the waves.

Since you were open to comments about the lyrics I'll just ask (not roasting though, sorry ) about the two last lines - "blow another second like a hand grenade" in the chorus, and
"the earth will burn the life you missed" in the verse

These lines really made me take notice, because they are in stark contrast with the otherwise more flowing vibe. I'm curious if that was the intention you had? To add a little shock in the end?

Thx for listening yeah the message from the beginning was supposed to the value of presence. My personal experience with that lately has felt like time desperately slipping away at the hand of a mind elsewhere trying to figure out the future “each second like a hand grenade” if you will.

I didn’t set out to rip off this track, but once the beat came together, I couldn’t help but be reminded of Slow Country by Gorrilaz whom
I’ve in general take some lyrical inspiration from so I tapped the same contrast there between the happy reggae and the chorus that just repeats “can’t stand your loneliness”

Then I put all the Sun dog stuff in the verse. I originally tried to put a sudden dog metaphor in the course, but it felt too cheesy so I liked it better this way with a contrast.

Great dubby vibe, like the addition of the harmonica in the middle, like how the experience of the sun dog ties into this and become the inspiration of the track.

I think your voice clashes with the bass a bit to be properly understood, but that harmonica is clutch.
