Standing ovation, Tom!
The production is fantastic. That chorus is absolutely killer.
It's most definitely Award Winning!

Hi Tommy,
once again great lyrics and vocal delivery (including the harmonies). Nice arrangement. The drums sound fantastic. I enjoyed my listens a lot.
Guenter Guenter, Thanks for the fine review. Glad you took time to point out the lyrics. Tom Tom Great overall sound. Drums and acoustic guitars sound very nice. Vocals and writing are top notch. Peter, Thanks for giving it a spin and for the nice comments. Tom

It's most definitely Award Winning! I couldn't say it any better. As been noted this should win a grammy or two, best record of the year, best song of the year, and best new artist.

Great work Tom! And kudos to Bud's ears too. Love the song and you sound super on it. Thanks Josie. Bud heard something in this that turned out to be spot on. I had to set it aside for awhile until I found the guitar real tracks in the chorus that fixed the problem.Tom Love this one, Tom. I echo what's been said.
Regards,
Bob Bob, I appreciate it. Tom Very nice song and beautifully done. Great song idea. The title attracted me. Cheers. Richard, As I mentioned earlier, I had been carrying around that line for awhile now. I just kept trying it out and didn't give up on it. Thanks, Tom

Tom,
You just keep steppin' up to the plate and knocking it outta the park.
The production and mix on this are stunning. All the right things at all the right times.
Your vocals get more confident all the time.
Your writing has evolved to that "solid every time" place. The lyrics are natural, smooth, perfect prosody throughout. They fall on the ear beautifully. Your melodies are knockin' me over... Pro combo.
Stunning. Really.

Love the song - catchy hook, well sung and arranged.
The mix seems a bit hot, though. David, Thanks, It may be a tad hot because my hearing loss is getting worse. Tom Tommy
Great write. Fabulous paradigm in the lyrics. Great harmonies in the chorus and overall sensational high-class delivery.
I really liked the drive throughout the entire song.
This could make air-play

Trevor, Glad you liked the write. Thanks for mentioning the harmony. Tom

Tom, there's little left to say about this -- seriously. Everybody has laser beamed in on the excellence re the write, the vocal, the arrangement and the amazing mix. Having done my share of mixing off and on over the decades I'm in awe of how you can pull this off with that number of tracks. Amazing.
And, at the risk of being redundant, I want to add that you have a RARE talent and that is the ability to write lyrics that can appeal to a very broad spectrum of listeners - across all economic and social strata your lyrics can capture about anybody who loves music.
Well done!

Power country ballads fit you well and you've filled the spot with some nice songs recently.
The quality of the songs being submitted on the forum is constantly improving and so many are meeting the challenge of raising the bar that has been set that I think it is a good time for PGMusic to revisit some version of a streaming BIAB radio station.
It may be too late for this years release but how nice would it be to open up BIAB/RB, hit the radio button and streaming, steaming hits like this fill your headphones or speakers?
Good song, mix, arrangement and performance. I enjoyed your details shared with Sergio. Charlie, I was just thinking about that radio station the other day. I hope the idea didn't die on the vine. Thanks for the nice words. Tom Tom, That is almost perfect! Clear mix, wonderful vocals nice chord sequence all that was missing was you and a guitar solo at the end  I enjoyed my listens Alyn Love that phrase, almost perfect. Thanks, Tom

J&B Thanks you two, I really appreciate this endorsement. As I eluded to earlier, I have been taking a much closer look at the lyrics lately. I have found that the real magic is in the rewrite. It's never there the first time through. It has to be nudged along and nurtured to reach it's full potential. I don't think I fully grasped the concept in the past, but I'm starting to get it now. Thanks again, Tom

Hey Tom.
A power ballad! Great. Sounds like a Bon Jovi song.
I loved the whole thing, but like Alyn, I was waiting for the Richie Sambora solo!
Excellent vocals and a professional mix.
One of your very best.

Tom, this is just outstanding! I've been out of pocket for several weeks, and sure glad I didn't miss this one! (But then, I pretty much like every song you submit!)
