Great song and great timing! I've got a pile of purchase and warranty information in front of me Right Now for a vehicle problem. This was perfect.  I'm glad I'm not the only one  Thanks ..   mark 

Hey Mark, I feel your pain -- don't we all? -- thanks for listening~~Allan.

Hey Kenny, whenever I have dreams of playing -- I mean really playing -- electric guitar...I sound like you.  Your playing is fantastic, mate.~~Allan.

Hi Allan,

Great hook and backing vocals complimenting an excellent song.

Beatlesque to my ears in the middle + love the guitar solo.

Thanks for sharing.

Good Job!

regards

Paul

Thanks Paul, as your work is of such high quality I truly appreciate your listening and commenting.  And hey, thanks for digging that guitar solo and that bridge!  As always, I look forward to hearing your next song post, mate~~Allan.

Blimey, mate, those vocals! You have a really great voice and this melody makes great use of it. I envy your falsetto skills, very nice. The mix is really nice, clean but smooth, nothing harsh about it. 

I'd consider pushing that awesome falsetto high harmony back a bit in the chorus, it seems to me that  it's burying the lead vocal.

Love your stuff!

Hi Kevin, glad you like those vox and I appreciate your telling me -- I'll keep your comments about the falsetto in mind for a new mix -- you say love your stuff and I say back at ya mate~~Allan.

Cool vox on this Paul -- perhaps a bit busy arrangement wise and there seems to be a lot of noise like Kevin said -- it also sounds brickwalled.  But, given that, it has the sound of much of what you can hear today in indie music (actually going forward from the 80s) so there's that~~wishing you good traction with it~~Allan.

The mix is pristine (see Kevin's comment) -- that synth violin can really sound poignant and you did good work arranging this to bring out that aspect.~~Allan.

Hey, the mix is good and clear as a bell.  I like your voice -- it has an appealing hint of English 80s new wave -- nicely done~~Allan.

A commODE TO BANALITY

Dis here's such a glad azz bump 

not like that certain sad azz chump

who thrills his mates with bad bazz thumps

on songs that smell like his azz dumps.

I think you always write songs with a good hook to them, and this one is no exception.  I like your style of composing and singing (I liked the vocal harmonies).

The mix sounded good to me - nice job there.

Thanks Douglas -- I appreciate your listening and commenting~~Allan.

Hey Steve, you've got a very good song buried in an opaque mix -- please consider redoing this with a stronger guitar based sound -- your vox are very good -- and there are some interesting melodies but the mix and instrumentation detracts from the song.  Man, I'd like to hear a new version of this~~Allan.

Hey Treesha, that's some do-wacka-do synth doodlin' there (which after all seems to be the craze) -- since you say you were "playing around" we'll go with that -- good mix on this one as is~~Allan.

Hey Kevin, terrific demo of your song -- vocals are very nice and the arrangement is interesting -- good mix too -- I enjoyed listening to this~~Allan.

AC

Terrific demo of your song Barry -- your voice is perfect for this style -- like that guitar part too.  (Just a comment on the lyrics -- the first verse where you're on the floor and she's on the bed sounds like the dramatic climax of the song -- there's nowhere to go after that in that the other verses are setups to that scenerio -- if that was the last verse lyric it would have more impact.)~~Allan.

Hey, Paul, I enjoyed this a lot (love the style and the like) ~~Allan.

Hey Kevin, "Shot in the Back" is terrific --- that groove is infectious and the opening guitar is perfect.  Your vox are outstanding -- I like the rock grit in your voice -- the mix is great -- stellar work mate~~Allan.

Freddy, you are a professor of existential blues philosophy for sure -- this mix on this is very good;  clear and everything sits well -- another track from you that's a pleasure to hear~~Allan.

Hey Paul, this reminds me of something Steve Miller might do -- good groove and I liked that guitar break -- the playing and tone are perfecto -- good work mate~~Allan.
