Oh heck yeeh!!!
Awesome man.
Great lyrics, great vocals, great guitar.
THIS IS GREAT:
Wake up California cause the sun is going down But the sky it is not falling look around Way down in the valleys and on the mountains high So many counting on you, forget your alibis
Eagles good man!!!
Thanks for the very kind words, David
[quote=RnAM]Kennny, this is very good! Very good vocals, and very professional use of the real tracks. Sort of a Joe Walsh thing. thanks for listening and commenting, always appreciate your kind words

Wow, the message, the vocals, your guitar and the production are all high bar. This tune has such a pro studio "finished" and polished sound on our monitors.
Like Noel said, "one to be proud of."
And one to add to our SC playlist!

I think your voice brings such a punch of emotion to the song.

HiI Kenny,
Very cool! Your raspy voice is the grit that makes this exceptional. As a lead guitarist myself (Alan), I'd love to have heard the lead riffs just a bit louder. Your backing tracks are perfect for the aura.
You did a terrific job on this. The lyric, melody, arrangement and presentation were all spot on. Thanks ... we enjoyed this a bunch!

I'm glad I took the time to drop in and listen.
This reminded me of Neil Young from the start.... then when you hit the Ooh Ooh... I immediately thought.... ALABAMA.... the Neil Young song, not the band.
Yep I really like this because the style and groove are right up my alley. I was, and still am, a huge Neil fan. And this song has Mr Young's style all over it.
The lyric writing is really good and on target with a great message in there. I agree with David Snyder that the opening first "verse" is "eagles" good.
Melody and instrumentation, and lead work is also good.
Thoughts from inside my head..... I would have shortened it up a bit. 5:26 is a bit long. Repeating the first verse, because it IS so good, definitely contributed to that length. It used to be really common to repeat verses but that seems to have been replaced by writing equality good 2nd and 3rd verses. Resist the temptation to repeat your verses. I'm a big fan of long songs, especially when a good part of that lets me play my guitar. But again..... And much of this nit picking is dependent on what you plan to do with the song. For non-commercial writing... ignore it all.
I'm curious how you define the structure in this song. What you consider to be the verse, the chorus, and the bridge. This one confuses me a bit in that regard. I still like it a lot.
Yep, well done.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Hello, Kenny
Very cool and good production! As Robert said, Such a great band feel on this excellent, moody song and your guitar is killer - but the standout for me is your vocal. Your husky vocal is so nice. And your guitars really blend well with the back track. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
