Yes, I listened to it last night and found it attractive. The recording quality and method, however, may have to be adjusted. I found the singing too distant and cold (the recording I mean, not the voice itself) in relation to the piano, and thought a warmer and more intimate quality would have better lent itself to the song.

The music itself I found interesting and I look forward to hearing more of your songs.
