Nice pop sound! Very much reminds me of the Cars as others have mentioned.
Excellent vocal!
Good production overall, hand claps especially really work.
Enjoyed!

Ron, Great music! Love the sound you are getting. Agree with all the other references - this is quite the pop mashup. Excellent lyrics, vocals and production. Bob THANKS, Bob! Nice pop sound! Very much reminds me of the Cars as others have mentioned. Excellent vocal! Good production overall, hand claps especially really work. Enjoyed! Dave, glad you liked it! Think Candy-O is burned into my brain, but it doesn't hurt at all. Ha!

Oh, so well done, Ron. A feast for the ears. Cool how you add the right piece to move the song along and change the dynamics in a subtle way. Excellent vocal, and I enjoy the well-mixed band.

Marty, thanks for the listen! Arrangement dynamics can be a lot of fun, but can be risky, too. Glad this worked for you! Love everything my vocalist does. He is amazing.

Excellent vocals and arrangement (handclaps worked well) and a very good lyric too.
The mix is top tier and sounds great on the KRK's. The drums sound really good too.
We are late to the party and many accolades have been served up ... all of which we agree with.
So, as Janice just commented "his music is always a pleasure to listen to!"

Hello Ron,
I read all the comments on this song and I can only agree with all the compliments.
I will not add more bands or so, you did a good job.
I liked the BG in the last words of every line in the chorusses. Very effective!
Your vocals are good, and also the way you sing in this song.
I remember telling you to use more variation in the highs and lows at the end of each line, but here it is ok!
I was also thinking of what Nigel suggested about a solo guitar as a break, but I don't think the song needs that.
Whatever, I enjoyed your song and that is what matters ;-)
Hans

Keeps me on my toes though. Ha! Hello Ron, I read all the comments on this song and I can only agree with all the compliments. I will not add more bands or so, you did a good job.

As you know, by the time I've listened to a song 100 times I'm not able to hear it with fresh ears any more. So you and the other forum members help me listen anew. Really glad you liked it!
