5th Dec 2013 - Update: New remix 20131124_03 by Steffen posted!

After the hard rock and rock ballad versions, here is the acoustic unplugged version, the last one in the trilogy.

Many thanks to Henry who played a major part in getting this together with various contributions. Thunder provided tasteful percussion, while SmithC delivered a great vocal.

Then Henry and Steffen came up with excellent mixes, both of which are posted here.

Em        D                      A

When you feel alone at night
Just like eyesight to the blind

You can't hide from me even if you don't you express

Girl

Your understanding of the things that I do
B                   C#m                 B                 A

I've not heard the other versions yet, Andy, but really like this one. :) Good production, good lyric, heartfelt vocals, and compelling music, appropriate to the mood. Some lovely poignant touches. (And you know I'm a sucker for 'poignant'. ;) )

Excellent job all round, lads. :)

Hi Donna,

Thanks so much dropping in with a lovely comment.

How have you been? I haven't seen you here much lately.

Thanks for posting, Andy - although I thought we were not done with the song yet.

My (progress) mix does not sound good at all - I need the unprocessed seps for a better sound. Henry's mix is perfect for the song! Mine was never meant to be a final mix anyway.

Henry, could you send me the raw seps one day (no hurry though)?

Regards,
  Steffen

Hi Steffen,

Not to worry, we can always replace your mix with a later one once you have got all the seps you need  :).

What a nice song guys, sounds really great! The singer sounds to me like my old mate Henry the doc :-) but I read he was "only" the man behind it all.

Thanks, Henry! And thanks to Andy too for telling me that you uploaded the seps, as I had missed that post.
