Thanks Peter, that means a lot. I am hyper-focused on vocals from here on out, so thanks for saying that.
I am so glad you liked it.

Thanks Ray! I suppose have a massive cold helped with that hurt sound. I took advantage of that scratchy throat for all it was worth but I knew I only had two takes!!

You are killin' it, son...
Killer vocal - your best, perhaps.
Excellent production - one of your best.
Nice mix.
COOL song. Terrific Rock write - you seem to step that up with each new write.
I think I may be repeating myself from your last song. Which means you are notching it up with each new release. Few people do that. Impressive.

YES!!!! You are killin' it!!! The lift from the verse to the chorus is EPIC!!! What kind of synth is that doing the pad/brass sound? Just a knockout song!!! Take care. Greg

Indeed, what would we be or do, without her..

With or Without you...
With or Without you...
I can't live...
Gotta run man...

David,
Terrific stuff here--full of heart and passion. To me, it's got a little bit of a Counting Crows vibe here, with just a touch of Costello. From a production standpoint it's stellar. Just a thought, but I wonder what this might sound like if you kept it just a tad more reserved in that first verse and chorus, then build from there.
But really, you hit on all cylinders on this one. Great tune!
All the best,
Deej

What would we do or be without her?
Your vocals sound like you left it all in a puddle in front of the mic and backed away shaking.
Good stuff. What he said!!! Man, killer over the top good. Our fav of many. We agree with the mention of Costello. We love soul in a vocal performance and you delivered big time. Great production too. Bud

Hey Tangmo, Well I guess an imaginative mind could interpret this several ways...but no...there was not a puddle... But, I guess I was shaking some because I had a wicked bad cold when I did this, that's where the scratch came from.
