I've just been working on song lyrics that seem to have a million and one words to fit to melody. For this reason, when I listened to this song, my very first thought was how amazing lyric brevity is. To be able to say what is needed in the minimum number of syllables possible is an incredible skill. And it's breathtakingly effective.

Janice, I love this melody. The way that it flows against the song's harmony and arrangement is a perfect fit. You singing it, is the proverbial cream to the music's coffee. So easy on the ears and such a pleasure to listen to.

Peter and Leon, you've done a fine job creating this. Every where I look or listen, talent shines. The supporting chord progression is inventive and because it is a little outside the usual expectations, it made me sit up and pay attention. I like it!

Bud, thanks for putting the polish on a fine work.

So... all in all... I really enjoyed where this song took me.

All the best,
Noel

Love those little feedback squeals in the guitar solo. Brutal man.

Thank you Scott!

Cool song. This reminded me a bit of One Tin Soldier from back in the day. I'm not sure why... maybe the chords and snippits of the melody.

Nice work y'all.

As everyone has previously said everything about this is just plain perfect. This is so much better than what is on the radio today it is frightening.

Excellent work.


Thank you Mario!

Thank you! Your description of the lyric is very eloquent.
