Really liked it!  Solid melody,  arrangement and musicianship. The snare might be a tad harsh to my ears, but really nothing major. Well done!

Hey, thank you for listening and commenting -- I'm glad ya like it~~Allan.

Allan;

After listening to your song several times, I must say that I like it, but small nit is the second time you repeat "today" and sustain it. The harmony in the vocals sounds a bit off.  Maybe this is what you're trying to accomplish in an artistic sense, but it does sound a bit chaotic to my ears.  It's a good song though and a great production otherwise, but if it were my song, I'd tighten up the harmony there just a bit.  But again, if it's artistic choice for effect I respect that.

Cool song - the chorus has a 60's retro vibe to it. I liked the tone of your lead vocal - what mic did you use on this?

Overall the mix sounded quite good to my ears.

Hi Douglas, that's my one and only mic -- the sm57.  Glad ya like the song -- thanks~~Allan.

Nice Allan...  trying to work out whom your voice reminds me off.
Little bit of the Stranglers I think.

Hey Gary, can't say I hear that but I'll take the compliment :)   I'm not a huge fan of The Stranglers songwriting and I'm not overly familiar with them but I've heard a bunch of their music that I've liked -- esp. JJ's roaring bass and those proggy keys~~Allan.

I enjoyed the retro sound this has. Even though it has a 60's Beatles vibe to it I pick up clearly on the individuality in it as well. The mix is subjective and i might have done a few thing you did differently. I will let it at that because one isn't better than the other in this case. That 60's music wasn't made the same as modern music.

Yeah, Squeeze were/are a great band aren't they? -- some wonderful songs.  And Tilbrook is such an underrated guitar player -- fluid and melodic.

Nice one Allan.  I also think that this does have a bit of a Joe Jackson feel.  Any way it is well put together - good performance, arrangement etc.  with good vocals and harmonies.  Well done!

Why thanks Freddy -- I'm pleased that you like it~~Allan.

I should have know it was an sm57 - there's a reason it's been around forever?

Yeah, and they last a long time -- I've had mine for years and it gets a lot of use -- and oh yeah, I use the mic a lot too~~Allan.
