So, I have been having a blast learning to play the piano and this is my second piano tune. I am playing both parts and am really enjoying what the piano can do. Who knew!

Very much like early Springsteen to my ears. Really enjoyed it.

David,
Brilliant, just brilliant write . . . and beautifully delivered. Loved my listen. Yes, as TuneMonger mentioned, a very early Bruce feel to it, but in the end all you. Exceptional tune!
And, BTW, I'm a bit jealous--I'd love to learn piano, but don't think I could ever quite master it. Congrats on taking that on and clearly excelling at it.
All my best,
Deej

I like that. I think it's easily one of your best songs.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Very powerful and positive lyrics delivered in a strong stadion rocker style, nice live feel. Learning to play the piano has paid off, talent can be heard. The band also work well, especially the drums.

David,
Love it!
Well written.
Excellent vocal.
Nice job on the piano. Is the piano from a VST or a physical keyboard? (what is it?)
Really nice arrangement. Solid mix.
A song that begs to be heard many times.

Hey thanks Dan! I really appreciate the kind words. I have been trying my hand at some early Elton John and it kind of gets into your blood. Syncopation is where it's at man.

I am with Herb on this one David. As much as I love your guitar playing. You did a great job on the piano. What a super vocal and lyric. They were both the star of the show. Well done.

Nice anthem. Inspiring! Good job on the piano. It's a lot easier on the fingers than the guitar, innit? But it was really the vocal that sold it - well done.

Ah, proof positive. Man, what a strong and vibrant song. Great passionate vocal. I love this line "truth is what you recognize." Very engaging sound. Oh, and, yes, your piano playing is really a HUGE addition, David.

David,
Nice ballad.
And it's very brilliant.
I think it's the power of vocals and arrangements.
I agree with Janne.
Learning to play the piano has paid off, talent can be heard.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Banging out the chords works... the massive potential of 10 notes in harmony is scary.
I really like the more syncopated bridge part/prechorus or what ever it is.
Cheers
