No idea what this genre is. It started in my mind as some sort of pop, soft rock, country. Then it sounded, to me, a bit soulful. In the end I just ran with the flow and stopped overthinking it.

Helping to clear our minds, Thinking what to say. But it can also make you cry wondering how and what and why. One thing is true, It's better with you Ch. It's better with you in those uncertain times. We see it through, help each other climb. Whatever we do. It's better with you. Workng away from home. Hot desert sand. Thinking how love has grown for that greener land. Just one more week in this place before I see your smiling face. Now I know that it's true. It's better with you.

Adhereing to genre boundaries only constricts creativity, and you show so well what can be done when we break out of those restrictions. This is so good, Vic. Love that guitar work. Your vocal seems different. Or is it me? The harmony, of course, is superb. But your lead vocal is clearer or something. Did you do something different? Different mic, or different FX? I'd say it sounds better because in many ways that may be true, but as you know I ALWAYS enjoy your vocal. Good write. Maybe you're singing that chorus to your new mic. "It's better with you."

Vic,
It's a nice blend of folk-rock, modern country, classic -rock, singer songwriter! It's hard to fit into a single category!
Nice use of realtracks! Also liked the little stops inserted!
Good job on the vocals! Catchy chorus that stays with you for a while!
Take care, TB

Hey Vic,
Yeah I really love this too. Love the whole swing and vibe of it, and hookiness of it all.
It reminds me of some great band from the 60s, or 70s maybe, like Dylan ,meets CSNY, meets the Band, meets CCR. Something like that, but a hit for sure.
Nice!!!

Vic, super tune! Cool universal truth and a catchy melody. What else is there?? Nifty BiaB arrangement. Particularly like your use of a soloist for fills and the oohs at the end. It's all perfectly supportive, cleanly mixed and sounds great. Well done (again)!

Thank you Marty.
Re the vocal: as I mentioned in my last couple of songs, the new DAW was giving me a fairly steep learning curve. At first, I was over loading on the new fangled effects chain like a kid in a sweet shop. I think I am winning the battle, slowly.
I’m using the same mike I have used for the last 15 years.
Thanks for the encouragement.

Hi Torrey.
I'm pleased that part of the melody stays around for a while.
Couldn't hope for much more.

My idea of a genre would be: Old Music  But I think Floyd said it best: Good Music! Good lyrics, and the chorus sticks. Enjoyed my listen ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif)

Another really excellent VA song, mix and production. The guitar solo is nicely paced and harmony vocals work really well.
Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

I couldn't want for more. Love your band suggestions

Vic, I would put this is the "its a darn good song" genre.
Super groove
Great vocal and outstanding lyrics
Great mix.
An outstanding song.

Another good tune, Vic. Hard to top that last one, it was an all-time high for you, but this certainly has its merits as well. Had me humming it.

Listened to this a few days back or so . . . listens just as well the second time around. The write is excellent, as is the melody . . . very engaging. Just the right touch on the lead solo. As for genre . . .who cares? If it's good, it's good . . . and this is just that. Excellent work!!

Yes, it annoys me when you post a song on Soundcloud when the form asks for the genre.
Then it gives you a list of genres to pick from but none of them apply.
Then there's the "Custom" category which asks for the sub genre.
I need to invent one called Unos Wotitis.

Very radio friendly song, sounds like a good song to listen to while on the road, and the message fits this image of returning home. Positive lyrics with good insights and catchy pop melody. Enjoyed the selected RealTracks, especially the solo guitarist and the backing vocals. And your voice is at home in this genre, whatever it may be  Janne

The title grabbed us first and then came these lines: “Whatever we do. It's better with you.” 😊 You’re definitely getting the hang of your new DAW and your vocals sound great. Good band and arrangement. Enjoyed it, J&B PS It is very loud. But I got the monitors back on the shelf.
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.
