Lovely, Madelleine. My favourite lines are “September

The wind it blew away our footprints in the sand

Remember

We tried to carve them out in stone” because it evokes a frisson. The opening cello notes woke up my two cats, but then they started purring. That’s Arvo Pärt, Bach and YOU they react to like that.

Thank you for your music, your witness, your insight.

This is so beautiful, Madelleine. Your voice is perfect for capturing the mixture of nostalgia, grief, and hope the song expresses. I just love the main line "There are no more heroes, but we'll do just fine." Really resonates with the ME experience. Can't wait to hear the rest of your album as you release it!
