I love the flute!!! That gives it such a mysterious element...
The back vox jump out way too much Xeries....as I had told you before, I think your voice is perfect on this song without a need for any other voice than your own...except maybe some far away, surround-sound oooos and aaahhhhs and ghostly echoes of what you sing...but its your song.
I think if you would just soften her parts, it would really help bring the mellow intensity back into the song.
By the way..I still love this song. It is a tale that pleases the ears.
And I have not listened to the song in depth as it is now, enough to really comment on anything else..but I'll give it a listen when I get back home from work.
