What's that? Strings? In the melody?! Hey... my incessant nagging paid off! =D
I really like the introduction with the brass. It merges well into the rest of the piece. The little details you threw in were a nice touch too (voice in the background; I almost missed them).
The ending isn't what one would expect. It strikes me as metaphorical. It ends in an open way, as if (oh, how to word it?) depicting your departure and the ... unknown beyond all this.
It's kinda sad to know that you're leaving (virtually and otherwise). But know that you can still p[r]oke me if you ever need another ear to listen to your WIPs.
Good luck in your future compositions and other endeavours. Take care of yourself. I'll miss ya, so keep in touch, 'kay?
Yes, your constant "BUT WHERE'S TEH STRINGS MELODY!" finally drove into my subconcious... now if only somebody screamed "BUT GET TEH WORK DONE!" every hour on the hour, it might make me do it!
Indeed the ending, was to indicate my sudden departure.
I will proke you... horribly... crush your ribs and the such.
Okay, okay, I'm supposed to be cramming for my Geography Exam, but I thought it would be too much of a waste not to put down my first impression right now.
As usual, great work, but I could easily tell that you spent a LOT more time on this than the others. For one thing, it deviates from your usual "style" of composition. Not so much that it totally alienates it, but enough to make it stand out.
The strings are a nice touch in the BG, but will you EVER use them as a melody instead of hiding them in the BG? *head-desk*
It starts off and ends almost the same way, which I interpret as your "blessing" to him to return the same way that he left. This bit some what reminds me of your "Insanity Inside", though.
I don't have much time to compliment you and whatnot, but I wanna maybe talk to you some time about this one.
Thanks Aims, I did indeed spend a good deal more time on this then most my songs... I blame Dan, if he wasn't such a great guy, I wouldn't have had to spend ANY energy on his face, but now look, reduced to slaving away for hours upon hours T-T.
You have the interpretation right, and maybe one day I'll use the strings as the melody... one day ^^.
In order to relate to the title better, perhaps you should add in rainy sounds in background?
The only problem I have with this is that it's TOO SHORT! Oh, and the ending shouldn't be so abrupt. It's like you chopped off the end and let it die. Which is a shame, because otherwise, this is such a prettyful song. ;__;

prettyful, I like that word. It reminds me of flowers... which are also prettyful.
Irony?!
I think not ^^.
Thanks again for the review Aimers. I did kinda let this one just... die... huh.
Silly me.
