You can also download an mp3 of this if you are a member. The song received some excellent praise from some reviewers, including:

"This is a good song. The acoustic/electric/electric slide always make a nice combination. The melody works really well with the chord structure. Nice leads on the electric. I love the Pink Floyd sound and that is what I'm hearing. Just a bit of a different accent. Overall - a really good relaxing tune...Good job. :)"

"John Hiatt meets Big Head Todd. Great storytelling ballad and the slide sounds great...I am digging the vox and the guitars...Great lyrics, quality song, nice job..."
