This is fantastic. Everything in this fits perfectly. Super vocal, great instrumentation (super guitar chops), and great sad but true lyrics, all set in the perfect mix!
This reminded me of The Doors. I am a big Door's fan and this song sounded a lot like what they did.
Loved it! Yeah, LOVED it too!! And definitely feel the Doors vibe too......guitar sounds like Krieger! VERY COOL!! Take care. Greg

You music often has a late 60's early 70's vibe to my ears that I really like, best period for music in my book.
I dig the intro and the arrangement, very well done. Love your vocal too, and the moody guitar work.
Good stuff, enjoyed.

This is a bit of a "connect your own dots" tune and we both like that. There is nothing wrong at all in leaving that to the listener.
"If I rate my self on a scale of 1 - 10 , My guitar playing is a 2, vocals 2, lyrics 2, song production 2, mixing 2. Hey...that adds up to 10 don't it?"
You sell yourself way short. I think we've said that before. Your vocals are passionate and have, for us, the all important edge of soul. Your guitar nails the vibe.
"Studio monitors or not, the goal is to make it sound good on any listening platform. looks like I've got work to do."
We listened on KRK monitors and it sounds good. I listen to our work on different systems but by and large if a production sounds good on the monitors it'll work elsewhere.
Needless to say we enjoyed it!

You guys are gonna make my head grow. I can't afford that, my head is already outgrowing my hair......;) I've got two sets of monitors & two sets of headphones that I listen on. I keep promising myself, I'm gonna take things out to that car for a final reality check but, I hardly ever follow thru with that. I really do appreciate your continued encouragement. Thanks again. moto
