As others have said, congratulations on a very strong effort – particularly for your first tune Larry.

The structure is neat and purposeful and it’s obvious that the lyric is sincere and heart felt.

First part of the gtr solo (at around 1:38) doesn’t seem to quite fit the chords. Was this played or generated.

There are plenty of hints above as to the lead vocals, but I would agree they need to be strengthened a little.

Going up an octave (Kaj) might be pushing it a bit.

BTW - don't know who directed you towards SoundClick, but you made a good choice!!
