The album contains six acoustic ballads (Acoustic Guitar, Cello, Violin) and five electric songs (Drums, Bass, Electric Guitar). The Night is Long is the base line for the acoustic ballads. It’s fresh, clear, simple and the words should catch your ear whether you’re familiar with them or not (It also has a wonderful Violin solo). It made an easy choice to be placed towards the beginning. To set the table for the remaining ballads!
