"So Long" by Siôn Russell Jones - A Song Review

     For weeks, we have intended to identify our appreciation for the song “So Long” by Siôn Russell Jones. Intentions are fine, follow-through is better.
Siôn Russell Jones is a singer/songwriter from Cardiff, Wales. Pictured above is the cover of the "So Long" EP that was released on April 15, 2013.

     Jones has the type of voice that seems to put things in perspective. That is, while listening to the music, it seems that all is good with the world despite the content of the message. For example, a first listen of the lyrics of "So Long" leaves questions as to whether Jones is coming from a positive or negative space, but who cares.
     We love the harmony at the 0:50 mark in the song. We enjoy the selection of instruments and how they enter and exit. Even the abrupt ending adds to the quality of the listening.
