Wow, vintage MJ pullin' at the heart and soul with this one. Refreshing, resigned and wise. Excellent work on the tape ping-ponging too (limitations!). Love the backstory, the studio shot and the plug to the 'Painting of the day'.

Dare I say, "I want more of what is: this."

That means a lot coming from some one who's been with MJ since day one. :)

It is fun to watch you work, the day-to-day craft of it I mean. Riffing on that, if you put this year's songs all together in album at some point, an idea for a name: "Journeyman."

Thanks for saying so, Eric. Sometimes it's just great to work with the garage door up so you can chat with the neighbours! "Journeyman" is an amazing title! Maybe that will become a song.
