Sounds great but where were the P90s?

Sounds good. Could be good as movie or advert soundtrack, too.

Fantastic song! After hearing the other comments, I keep picturing this as the backround music in a Ken Burns documentary being narrated by Morgan Freeman.

Intro clean guitar parts and sprinkled throughout.
I've come to love these pickups...they fall between a Fender single coil and a Gibson humbucker and still hold clarity and warmth.
I've been working on it for 3 weeks off and on trying desperately to get past the "Orchestration Rookie Stage" but I AM finding it amazing what one can do with just a few chords and a nice simple melody. Indeed, "Less Is More" when you use that approach and then build "Layers" off of them. The time invested in closely listening to and studying Hans Zimmer is worth it especially his use of Percussion. The man is not of this earth.
Patience Patrick...patience.
