Is always a pleasure to listen your voice.

Absolutely perfect, fantastic!

[karlmahlmann]

Hey Erin, just taking my time going through your work. Absolutely wonderful -an incredible voice and harmonies. extremely complex and smart but ultimately soulful, beautiful music. I'm so glad to have found your channel and to have you as a friend. - Karl

[TwilightFadez]

This is pretty darn good. I want you inside my soul!

[VienneseDelights]

This is very good. Your vocals are excellent, too.

[KOJINTEKI12]

i like the way you push the mic 

[erinmerle]

@KOJINTEKI12

lol, thank you thank you.

[jairusbilo]

great song did u do all the musical and vocals arrangments urself?

[erinmerle]

@jairusbilo - yep :)

[MrVideoRater1]

For what it's worth, I think 1:52 just slightly redirects the song in a way, but it gently gets back on track again. Keep it.

[MrVideoRater1]

If music is all about emotion then Erin sums it up perfectly. I find it impossible to listen to her music without leaving a comment. I hadn't heard of her until last night when I was listening to various Morrissey/Smiths covers, and I'm now absolutely blown away by her. Nobody would deny she has a natural gift. Grown men will cry listening to her, such is the beauty in her voice.

[erinmerle]

@MrVideoRater1 You're extremely kind, thank you <3

[youKStates]

this is so beautiful, brilliant, reminds me of steve wonder and all kinds of lovely things, where can i get a cd?

[erinmerle]

@youKStates I love Stevie Wonder, I really do. I know he has a cheesy side but the man can sing. 'Innervisions' and 'Songs in the Key of Life' are great records.

[cantaroooo]

beautiful...

[drumjoey]

Great work Erin. Man I love your harmonies !

[marywinmusic]

I'm incredibly grateful Andreas referred me to your music. I had no idea there was a female songwriter penning mysterious dark melodies such as yours on YouTube. Beautiful song and arrangement Erin. I love your footage too. I'm from Seattle and it looks like home. Saved to favorites. cheers, Mary

[falseflag08]

amazing stuff glad to have stumbled on it,your reel round the fountain & five years covers are fantastic,you've really made them your own.i look foward to hearing more originals!

[amccann7]

This is the most beautiful music I have ever heard!!!! Your voice sends shivers down my spine!!!!

Excellent musicianship, Erin!

[Maysey1]

Nicely done. I like how you started it with the crow taking off from the bench. Beautiful original arrangement and nicely played. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent with us. Mark

[VooDooU22X]

very beautiful singing ...

[reliablebow]

following the frozenwhitebeartrail.....so lovely:) I agree about chord changes....

[buniluvr]

Absolutely beautiful; visually and musically. You are a true artist my friend. 5+*********

cheers

[frozenwhitebear]

what I think.... subbed, faved and featured... (came here by Elliott)

[erinmerle]

many thanks! I'm just learning how to use this technology. The landscape where I live is very inspiring and the waves, wind, rain, trains, boats and animals are a constant kind of music.

[dontstoppleasevideos]

This is really cool but I don't think you're using an appropriate reverb setting on your vocals. The bridge and the harmonies after that are really cool, but its too wet. you need to spread out that sound some and dry out those vocals so they will come across as more crisp.

[dodgyBryansk]

This is quite a beautiful song and lovely video too. You have done a great job composing and singing this, it has such a gentle and deep undercurrent and I must have listened to it 20 times already. Any chance you will post the words too? Thanks for taking the time and effort to craft a thing of such beauty and sharing with the world.

[rhopen]

Quite stunning music and vid. My compliments. -Ron

[ShanciAhi]

oh and, i was born in montreal, but lived in victoria the water is beautiful. so is the sky train.

[ShanciAhi]

your songs flow so elegantly, may every ear you touch be blessed with the beautiful harmonics of your music, it's just amazing. chord changes, vocal up pitch, great chorus, keep at it, we need people like you to make music what it is.

[erinmerle]

Chord changes are my favourite aspect of music so thank you for noticing them (:

[erinmerle]

Thanks Matthew! I am lucky to live by the ocean. The ending is me being edgy!... or something. No, it's what I have to do to snap out of the little world in my head. Push mic away with mouth...rub face furiously....check out the nearest pile of bills.

[maninwhitedress]

As always Erin, you sing as if heaven is on earth :---)))) beautiful imagery. What was pushing your mic with your mouth about, that was weird.

[erinmerle]

Thanks so much, M!

I hope you're having an awesome summer!

[spillofgold]

I enjoy everything about this song-- it's enchanting.

[wesalittle]

Wow! I am enraptured, captivated, speechless! Thank you, Erin. And Suze for sharing!

[bsmellis]

Very well constructed melody/harmony and backing tracks..and you pulled this song off perfectly. Very nicely done ..

[beachfrontal]

I have come back to hear this again the first time I was in a rush,I see that you have over 600 views,50 comments and 46 -5 stars,probably every comment you have here are from the same people who rated 5 stars,ALL OF THE OTHERS WERE IN A RUSH JUST AS" I WAS".The lucky ones have been us few, who sat back and listened,and enjoyed, anyone who stayed to the end could not leave without rating this a 5*minimum, far too mezmerised by the song too go dashing off, leaving a stunning comment, BRAVO 55555

[beachfrontal]

[Soonago2]

Erin, the new bridge was great. The panning and other effects were pulled off just right. If you keep posting music and videos of this quality, it won't be long before we current subscribers can say, "I knew her back when..."

[erinmerle]

shucks, thank you. I

[justinwhatley1]

amazing - watch this in HD

[sparklejames]

Hi Erin, I commented on the original version this morning and loved that. This is even better : )

Love the bridge - "it's here / it's here" then "this is as far as I'll be going...".. Just brilliant, very powerful, sonically and lyrically...

Please keep writing and posting!

Dan

[erinmerle]

Thank you Dan, for all the encouragement <3

[kurt11110]
