Excellent write, Vic, very real. That's what I always like about your vocals too.

One of my favorite songs from you I think, well done.

Thanks Chay.
Yes, I was happy with the solo after re-ordering the licks a few times.

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!!

Thanks Deej.

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 smile

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. smile

Thank you J&B.
I think the DAW took pity on me after the annoying initiation ceremony.
