Great lyrics. Think you should address the unison of the vocal work in places. Nice song and I love the chorus.

I get a bit of a retro vibe on this one - but the mix sounds modern. Nice job on the lyrics - I thought the chorus was a good hook, and I really liked the bridge.

Paul, good lyrics, good story. The accompaniment could use more work I think. Just seems like it meanders a bit. Also, the percussion sounds like a click track to me so maybe more attention there as well. Anyway, just one man's opinion.

Reminds me of *the association* from the 60's.  as everyone said, lyrics are stellar and I love the melody.  great song!

[Wookiee]

That was nice tune to tap the furry paw to whilst dealing with other things, like email.

[Bajan Blue]

Nice track - echo some of the comments re the accompaniment meandering a little at times, but other wise all good and a good mix

Well done, gentlemen!  Your writing and production keeps getting better, and I always look forward to hearing your songs.  If anything, I think the vocals could be a tad tighter in pitch, but not time.  Otherwise, this is a gem and a fun listen!

Hi Antler,

Glad you liked the harmonies, thanks for listening and commenting.

Fun and catchy tune !  . . . kind if reminds me of The Proclaimers, a great Scottish band, but this sounds more English ?

The intro really caught my attention, what a great start . . . then later in the song the sound got very full, you got those vocals right out front, and they sound really great and authentic . . . such a great listen guys.

[freddy j]

Your song lyrics are always packed with emotion and the melody on this song really carries the emotions along.  The lyrics and melody are also very catchy.

It was a treat to listen to this!

Overall I liked it a lot, but I couldn't help thinking that you have given yourself, or anyone really, a fair mouthful to sing. You could polish and in spots tune the vocals, it will sound great and be a good song indeed! But there's a lot of words going into measures with a midtempo feel, and I was thinking to myself, dang I'm not sure if I'd want to sing this! A tough  ask, lotta words, and you actually do a very decent job!

In the second half the rhythm guitar comes is and picks up the drive nicely, very cool add there.

It's a bit of a depeche/tears for fears vocal on top of a older Irish feeling song. 

cheers,

-Tom

Hi Tom,

The lyrics are a bit wordy but to be fair it was one of my earlier songs.

Thanks for listening and commenting, it means a lot.
