Yvette, I’m speechless. This piece speaks to my soul. I’m trying to put my finger on it but I can’t. Because I’m speechless. Thank you for this. I picked up a guitar for the first time in 97. It was game over after that. It was my life. For the best of 15 years. And then I got married, landed a solid career, bought a house, became a dad, found myself more worried about what the yard looked like then listening to the sounds of the earth around me... And then 2020 happened. My reliable and comfortable world I knew was no longer so. But in the midst of the chaos I found comfort in rediscovering who I am and how I got here. Revisiting my first true love, the sights and sounds of the earth but this time I got to take my favorite people, my family, on this journey of rediscovering old new happiness. Part of that journey was dusting off my guitars. And as I fell back in love with it I discovered you and your music about 3 weeks ago... and then this pops up on my newsfeed and I just can’t describe the feeling this gave me, but this song brought me to tears and left me speechless. It gave me a level of peace, hope, and happiness. Happy that the year I started out feeling scared and hopeless and terrified at times about was in reality the best year of my life with the people I love the most. I’m not trying to take away from your meaning of this piece that you write in the description, as it is what it means to you. But the power of music and how it speaks to us as individuals really came thru here. Although I feel embarrassed saying I just discovered you, thank you for being a part of the best year ever in me and my families life. Much love. 🖤

I've been trying to find words for a while now to put it how to phrase this. Still not sure I've got it right.
I've lived with PTSD for 18 long years. Counseling, medication, psych wards, the works, never fixes it. Just bandaids it.
Tonight, this popped into my feed, this popped into my notifications. I've said it before on your Facebook and Twitter, I swear, Ms. Young, you're psychic. You know when I need it most. The Algorithm may have delayed delivery of the music and message to me, but it did so so I'd get it when I needed it most.
Thank you.
I really am trying to recontextualize things, but it's a struggle. Your music gives me hope, and a happy place to go to.
Much love from a Displaced Scotsman.

I've been listening to a lot of pink floyd lately and it doesn't sound like gilmour but the way it is written and flows feels so smooth and you just let things take their time without shoving unnecessary notes. It's so emotional while only saying what it needs. In that way it feels just like a part gilmour would have written or something. Just gorgeous!

6 yo daughter, showed her parachute and "a map a string a light" and now this one.
6 yo:
Daddy, she's really good.
Me: Ya baby she's probably one of the best guitarists I've ever seen
6 yo: maybe she's the best in the whole world!!! Stretches arms out
Silence. Watching Yvette play.....
6 yo: Daddy, she's so good, is she even real?

Yvette, this is some of the most gorgeous, emotional, real stuff I’ve ever heard from you. I mean holy shit. That brought some serious emotions bubbling to the surface. I’m sorry you have trauma attached to such a beautiful song, but thank you for sharing it. I really hope you release it in an official capacity soon. Till then I’ll probably just listen to this magnificent excerpt on repeat 💙

This song is absolutely gorgeous. Please please PLEASE consider doing a proper full recording so that I can buy it. It's too beautiful to only be 1:20 long. Excellent work and keep it up!! 👍

Geez, almost cried.
It's weird, I make a ton of music of my own, and a lot of it comes out through my worst times and it's so comforting, yet I'm kind of afraid of showing it because I feel like actually nobody cares whether about me or what I do. I feel like I'll end up being one of those dudes with dumb dreams who's not worth it. But then I heard this, read the comments and realised how little you need to make something powerful and beautiful so... Thank you.

In modern parlance, a palimpsest is something having usually diverse layers or aspects apparent beneath the surface. This meaning was derived from the original palimpsest which was a writing material (such as a parchment or tablet) used one or more times after earlier writing has been erased.
There are definitely a lot of diverse layers to this fine piece of music.

I am 68. Played for 30 years . My own stuff. Lost everything, 100+ lyrics, tunes, and paintings, in a forestfire in 2017. Now I remember only my best tunes. Ordered a high-end brand new acoustic last week. This (your music) is inspiring to try new things. Thank you. For a young person, you have beautiful wisdom.
