That I used to do, yeah-eh-eh-eh-eh
Well, I'm a big girl now, hmmm

Great song as always, Duncan. JMO tho, your voice set a mood and I felt it like I always do in your songs, but the woman, although super talented, didn't fit this song (IMHO). Her interpretation of this wistful song and melody was...overdone? It took me right out of the solemnity in which you had me. As an aside, your choice of 2nds and dissonance in your melodies is, and has always been sheer genius. It's the reason I've been a fan of yours since "Barely Breathing". Thanks for your brilliant musical mind.
@darcycrews
Agreed!
@ourjuliet
@slowpokeproductions I respectfully disagree. She's full of passion. It's an interesting juxtaposition between the two characters in the story. If you think of it that way, it fits like a glove. Also, notice how Duncan's vocal performance gets more passionate, insistent, and dynamic as well. Finally, listen to the ending again. They're both on the same page. Thank you for considering my opinion. Enjoyed your well-written and obviously studied comments.
