Great voice! I enjoyed the melody. Good vibe and choice of tracks. Nice mix.

I didn't mind the structure of the song -- no need for cookie cutters if the song doesn't need it.

Now keep in mind that every listener brings something of themselves to each song, but I was a little confused about the metaphor. Distant thunder to me has an ominous sound (part of my brain was expecting G. Brooks "Thunder Rolls") that conflicts with the pep of the track. Was your Distant Thunder a positive force? It seemed to be.

Just my unqualified nit.

Anyway, nice work. Keep writing!
