@isaria

"This made me happy! Excellent performance of a fantastic song!"

@zipporah

"What a fun rendition! Your accent adds unexpected charm. I love your collaborations with Orlando, and it's sweet to see you playing guitar on this one! Well done..."

@krystle

"Firstly I love the combination of instruments, it make the song sound so full and varied - with the two sounds working in conjunction to create this almost call and return feel to it, I really enjoyed the stunning contrast it created.

Then of course we have your stellar vocals, always utter perfection - but there is this light and airy feeling to them in this song that just stood out to me, I really loved the chorus absolutely impossible not to bop along with you.

The music really makes this song really captivating, I was really enjoying the ride it took me on - and to be fair I haven't really heard this song before, it seems vaguely familiar but I believe this is the first time I have really heard it.

I also want to mention the percussive guitar break was awesome and I really loved the extra depth that added, not to mention the contrast it created with the rest of the song. Then there's the layered vocals at the end, compounding the moment further using a really nice effect - causing this captivating effect until the very end.

Just all round brilliant performance and I couldn't help but get into it, your entries this year have been fantastic and I look forward to many more in the New Year!"

@isaria

"Emotional, soothing, ethereal, and beautiful."

@zipporah

"Your music always touches me deeply. Something about your melodies; at once melancholic and hopeful – speaking to all those simply human parts of me. Wrapping my response in words almost feels inappropriate. If I only I could reply in wordless song. Perhaps someday I will..."

@krystle

"Yet another musical masterpiece David, you have some seriously phenomenal skills my friend - I am just in awe of your compositions, they just take you on a journey all you need to do is close your eyes and be taken away!

This is such an amazingly beautiful piece of music you have created, you can't help but feel the moment you create - it always sounds so freaking phenomenal, I swear the guitar is an extension of your body you are so in tune with it.

There is always so much emotion packed into your music, it really is rather extraordinary how you can make one instrument sound so varied and complex - so full one moment so light and airy the next, you are able to use the guitar in such a breathtaking manner it's impossible not to watch.

You always incorporate so many different elements and they all just work so well together, you stitch the sections together using these amazing techniques - creating this amazing movement of music and that is how I would describe it not a song but a movement, it evolves and transforms and is so much more.

Really love what you do and you never fail to impress, I don't think I've ever heard something from you that I didn't like - I cant wait to see what you have for us in the New Year."

@isaria

"Your voice is perfect for this song! Great, emotional performance!"

@zipporah

"And such a charming waltz it is. Though I found the photo-filter rather intense, your sincere performance was an enjoyable surprise!"

@krystle

"From the instant you started I knew I was going to love this entry and sure enough then you started singing and I was hooked, just an absolutely awesome performance - it took me out of reality and it felt like it would fit perfect in an old country and western movie.

You have a really amazing voice, there is this brilliant quality to it that's hard to find the words to describe - but there's a warmth in the tone, but clarity and emotion weaved throughout it.

I am just really stoked to have had you join us the last two weeks, it's been really nice to hear a new flavour of music in SGL - I like to think I can appreciate pretty much every style of music, especially when it's done well!

Just such a relaxed and mellow flow with this song, it immediately puts the listener at ease and then when you transition into that outtro - just breathtaking on every level, I am really looking forward to seeing and hearing more in the New Year!"

On STEEM, EOS or BITSHARES? have crypto? Human Trafficking Included. This is on VOICE as well. The developers are helping terrorists human traffic. WARNING

Self proclaimed community watchdogs are actually hacking and stalking people.

This group https://steemit.com/@steemspeak is ran by https://steemit.com/@fyrstikken. They are hacking people that enter this discord server https://discordapp.com/invite/sqxV63P . Once you are hacked they profile you long enough to know all of your activities. They introduce workplace gangstalking visits and bring it to your attention cleverly and discretely so only you get it. They are very covert and tricky with everything they say and do in this server. Some claim to have worked for or are working with the FBI and the NSA. Mixed with decommissioned traders and coding criminals, Its a scary mix of creepy people and their intent is to drive you crazy and deplete everything you have ever acquired in life, even your freedom.

My hacking started with them introducing ransomware that has options, dump my coin or delete my system drive. They acknowledged this to me in the server as it happened. I've been following this group since before it was on discord. I joined when it was on teamspeak.

This hacking and stalking is done so they can manipulate the target to pump and dump for them. Threatening and Making victims wear head phones, so nobody in your household can hear thier dramatization towards you. In 2017 this server was side marked as a drama show for entertainment purposes only as an excuse to say whatever they want all the way down to killing a politician. They have a server side command called "hey asshole" making a prompt come up instructing everyone to wear headphones. They want everyone wearing headphones so nobody in your vicinity can hear them mess with you. Fystikken says its because of "mic feedback" but once your a target you get exactly why they make everyone wear headphones.

With headphones on they subliminally direct victims with very low suggestive whispers mixed into their radio shows music. Combine this with them being able to manipulate their own individual outputs sound volume, which they control on the server side, they can pick what individual people hear at any given time. They decide who you hear on the server and change the volume controls for them. They can make some really low or off for those trying to investigate. They control who hears what and know who is who.

This team will find absolutely everything they can about you prior to using their suggestive and threatening program. They Introduce pictures that mean something only to the target, inducing paranoia while they watch and listen thru all of your circumvented devices. They are very aware of what makes you tick. They know your work schedule and use it for work stalking along side of this. I received multiple threatening letters to my work and home addressed to my screen name from this group.

Fyrstikken tells people they are drafted like they did with Facebook at the beginning. He says Facebook was started by forced labor and V2K controlled slaves, just like he creates with his gang for steem and crypto. "Get to work bitch" he tells people once circumvented and intimidated.

Human trafficking is worse than drugs. Steemit censors important content that will expose them. Look at steemit.com/@gangstalking

Oh God! This is a beautiful surprise! This is when one can confirm that, what is done with love, is paid in that way ha ha ha ha!

I've always liked that song, but I never considered it as a piece for a contest though, I must confess that when @orlandogonzalez proposed it to me and we started playing it in the context of "Cuatro-Guitarra" I got excited and thought, "it could work" ha ha !
Thank God and you, my dear music-loving friends.
I also want to thank you for this beautiful opportunity that we offer musicians, singers and performers to show our work outside our borders. You have definitely done an excellent job.

A special and prosperous year 2020 is my great wish for all of you. God bless your lives!
