"I Miss Missing You" is an original ballad by Caity Gyorgy from her album Featuring, recorded in 2021. The composition is set in D-flat with a 32-bar ABAC form and moves at a slow 65 beats per minute, making it one of the most intimate and contemplative tracks on the album. The featured soloist is guitarist Jocelyn Gould on electric guitar, who takes a half-chorus of improvisation lasting about a minute. At this unhurried tempo, the half-chorus provides substantial room for melodic exploration, and Gould uses the space to craft lines that complement the song's wistful character. The ABAC form offers a somewhat different harmonic path than the more common AABA structure, with the C section introducing fresh material that challenges the soloist to adapt. Gould, recognized as one of Canada's leading jazz guitarists, brings a warm, expressive tone to her improvisation that suits the ballad setting. This is her second appearance on the Featuring album, having also contributed to "Start Again," and the two performances showcase different facets of her playing -- the earlier track at a moderate tempo and this one in a more introspective context. Gyorgy's songwriting on this track demonstrates her ability to create original material with the emotional depth and harmonic sophistication of the classic jazz ballad tradition.
