Name: Skye Song email by Robin van Zelst
Duration: 5 min 8 s
Description: This song was written about leaving The Isle of Skye where we lived for just over a year. It seemed every time I travelled anywhere on the island during the time of our eventual departure that the scenery became more beautiful, with ever wilder, more spectacular displays of light and shade over the landscape. It almost felt as if the Island was saying 'Stay, look at all this beauty'.

Played and sung with great feeling and atmosphere, Robin - a lovely song.

Wow very awesome! Excellent recording Rob

Excellent song Rob ...... great light & shade.  If ever you record it again to put out, give me a shout ........ I can hear parts where pipes &/or harmonica could add a bit (no charge). Well done.

Fark. Beautiful mate. Took me away somewhere else for a while. Really, really beautiful. Lakes of Pontchartrain next please..

Recorded May2022 Raglan New Zealand.
I wrote this song in my head whilst having a coffee and wanted it to have a hippy Raglan style / 60s Byrd sound with electronica underlying the song.
Home studio, stereo mix (sounds not bad through some headphones)
Thanks for your support and listening x Ian
