Janne,

Very nice rock'n' roll song!
A little bit 60's American oldies feel.
Continuous eight beet is really comfortable.
Very enjoyable listen!
I missed the vocaloid version.
I would like to listen to it.

Best regards.

Good lyric!

Enjoyed this eclectic production.

We very much like those drums...as others have already said.
There's a lot of raw emotion on display here...strong vocal delivery.
And the mix sounds excellent on our monitors. Everything sits in a good place!
Enjoyed it...

Thanks Shigeki Adachi for your nice feedback smile You can find the original vocaloid version on YouTube, it was my first try with CyberSongman. The arrangement and lyrics have changed since then.

Really nice, Janne! Has a bit of "That Thing You Do" feel to it. That's a compliment. Very few songs grabbed my attention, and wouldn't get out of my head like that song did. I have a feeling, your song is going to be stuck there in my mind for a while as well. When you accomplish that, as a songwriter, you've done something!

My goodness. I hope you haven't had such a hard time with women. This was a very enjoyable listen. Lots of power in the rhythm section buoyed it up very well.

Hi Janne,

I have to quote floyd because he said everything that I thought...

Cool drums. It is great when someone uses a track that hasn't been displayed in the Showcase before...

Nice mix. Enjoyed.

Your singing is so full of confidence and it sounds great! In addition, that backing is produced so very, very well. Everything sits beautifully in my speakers and the sound is rich and full of clarity.

All the best,
Noel
