Man, you did punk justice!
Nice feel and arrangement.
You nailed the verbiage of the style as well.
That vocal puts it over the top. Your pronunciations are so cool for this!
Great job!

Is this the same as the one you posted in 2017? It's much closer to The Cars' version of New Wave tan anything resembling punk. The solo is also a cross between NW & Metal. I like the song - I was a fan of the Cars' 1st LP. Not sure about the almost unison vocal harmony - not very tight in spots. COOL song.

Very nicely done - definitely unique for the forums as well  I'm getting a bit of an 80's post-punk vibe on it. Reminds me of Siouxsie and the Banshees, or The Cure (early stuff). I'm a huge fan of this genre and you certainly did it justice. Thanks for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

I just uploaded a remix, I tighten up the vocals, and smoothed the mix out a bit in places.

I checked the 2017: same title and, pretty much, the same overall. I think the new one seems a little more nuances i the mix but can't be certain. What changed between 17 & 20?

I like this...
Yep I think it's more like new wave cars and Billy Idol in many ways. It's just not as angry as Billy..... but very nicely done. I liked that ending drum drop.
It sounds really good to me and I don't hear any major nits on a casual listen.
Well done.
And yeah... one more thing...... I could hear that on the radio back in the MTV days. It would have made you famous.
Edit: was that 1273 at 1:40?

Elliot, this to me is a Cars/Police combination and that always works well for me! Great energetic track that has a really nice vocal on it! Thanks, Torrey

Well, seems everybody has an opinion on what genre this is. I would just call it power pop. Not punk. Whatever, it's very well done and I enjoyed listening to it. Wish I could sing like that. Good work.

Hi RayC - You are correct, its the same song, but a totally new arrangement, mix, vocals, and redo ... The reason it sounds the same is I overwrote the old one that was on SoundCloud. Thanks for listening ... again.
