Hey, with some eq'ing and maybe backing off the autotune a bit, this is something that would fit in with today's pop. Work on this -- you could be on to something -- Allan.

Really enjoyed this Steve -- you got the feel of the arrangement down perfectly and your vox are terrific. I love that song and it was a pleasure to hear your cover of it. -- Allan.

Hey, you be the modern day Sousa -- that tuba part was perfect as is the arrangement.  Love the little 'banjo' part esp. when it staggers a bit. Much fun and yes, I did smile -- thanks!

Hi Allan, I always really like your lyric`s and songs,  great hook ``Mr together is coming apart ´´ ... I hate make comparisons but it`s got that Ray Davis (Kinks) feel to it which just super,...... proper songwriting, a proper song , properly done  , cheers paul 

Thanks Paul. I appreciate your comments mate and yeah Kinks is a-okay with me   -- Allan.

A catchy song well produced and performed as usual -- but the mastering seems just a tad loud for me. Good work & I wish you well ! -- Allan.

Hey Bats, terrific production & performances  -- bit of a Joe Walsh approach to the vocals & slide guitars (very well played) -- I enjoyed this  -- Allan.

I enjoyed this -- it has a subtle vibe that draws the listener in. And, it's beautifully recorded -- reminds me of the work of Rudy Van Gelder. - ! - Allan.

Hey Joad this didn't let me down -- terrific mix and your guitar/bass is perfect for this song -- what a tone. Vocals have just the right amount of nonchalance for this genre -- good good listen -- Allan.

Hey Paul, everything is boffo on this except the drums on the verses seem a tad off kilter. I like those chord changes on the chorus a lot and the bass is terrific -- enjoyed the listen -- Allan.

Absolutely terrific -- puts me in mind of something Colin Moulding might have done in XTC -- great work   -- Allan.

Hey, this sounds very well put together -- the mix is good as are the performances. Only nit is that to me it sounds a bit too bright and the mix could use a bit of breathing room -- good work  -- Allan.

Hey, very modern sound -- everything sounds great -- hope you get some traction with it! --  - Allan.

I REALLY love this track, and I get that it needs to be thin to achieve the overall feel ... For what it's worth 'well done' .. works for me ?

Only nit is the endings cut too sharp ... needs just a few millisecs more space ..

Steve

Hey, Steve, glad you like the demo -- thin guitar and all...:) -- Allan.

Hi 

Nice track, enjoyed the listen - just thought the lead Guitar sounded a little "thin", apart from that all good

Cheers

Hey Nigel, thanks for listening & commenting -- yeah, that thin sound is an integral ingredient of my special demo sauce  -- Allan.

Good demo, good song. Good lead & bg vox. Nice foundation of the production. I'd see about carving some low end and low-midrange off. And turn up the slide guitar (pedal steel????) in the instrumental outro. Was hoping for an instrumental middle section but that's just me????

Hey Larry - thanks for listening & for those comments on my demo - yeah we could all use a carver of tones-- right? --  -- Allan.

Hey Freddy, a little bit - just a little - out of your usual wheelhouse -- another corker I'd say -- but those drums need some work mate --  -- Allan.

Hey Paul -- very nice -- esp. when it gets to the doo-wahs and the bridge -- some clever chord changes there.  It does seem that the song really gets going from the bridge on -- maybe try to connect the verses before that better music-wise?   The mix and arrangement are pleasing as are the  vocals.  Catchy song -  - Allan.

Hey Freddy, this is a different type of song from you, I think (haven't heard them all)  -- the recording needs some work  (eq and stereo separation come to mind) but the demo gets the song across as demos are usually want to do, right?  I like the melody on this and the guitars are good -- your vocal sounds a bit different too -- I like it!  :) Allan.

Andy

Thnx Andy.

Nice one Alan i always get the feeling there´s a portion of tongue in cheek within your lyrics another great song cheers P

Hi Paul thanks for listening & commenting -- appreciate it - Allan.

I don't hear 'epic' but it was well recorded and arranged.  The choir sounds don't do the piece any favors -- perhaps you could use them sparingly and not bring them in so soon.  It's good to challenge yourself and I wish you well in your work  -- Allan.
