Josie,

Great song, as has already been noted. I thought the mix was pretty good except of course for the vocal being a tad low. I struggle with mixing myself, tunnel vision on whatever track I'm concerned about at the time seems to be the major issue. And of course with the limited resources that most of us have, it's not the easiest thing to mix and try to master a complete song that you've written, sang, arranged, played, gotten sick of, thrown away, brought back for a rewrite etc.

As was mentioned, cliche's are hard to get around especially when you are a novice like me, and you are often just trying to get the thing done, like me. I know that some songs were written over a period of years, by two or more writers, then we expect to do all the above in a week or less, while the inspiration is still there.

dcuny, mentioned several lyrical things, and I have to agree with most of them, give the song a rest and revisit some possible changes to the lyrics that will enhance the song and not detract from it. Every listener is different, and songwriters listen differently than the average Walmart shopper. Which is why there is so much on the air that should not be there. The execs know that most people don't care as long as it sounds good, with a different personality singing it.

I like the song a lot, the chord structure, the ballad style, the vocal treatments etc.

Dang....This is addicting.
