Good collaboration... A very catchy melody.... I enjoyed the listen... Any real world truth behind the story?  Thanks Jim - just a quick write to fit the music no truth to the lyric. Peter

Peter & Leon,
A good carefree pop feel to that refrain- I like the way you build with repeats on the chorus....the highlight for me is those twin leads.

Catchy song, guitar buried the vox but that can be fixed. Would like to hear a revision.

Nice song! It could be even better if you could mix the vocal so it gets more upfront. But even if the vocals are a bit in the "mud" it is easy to hear that you have made a great song!
Thanks for sharing!
Will

Peter & Leon,
A catchy tune...especially the refrain.
Good guitar stuff throughout - the outro is especially nice.
I agree that the vocal needs a bit more clarity. The vocal frequency and guitar frequencies seem to be about the same place, causing a conflict...
An enjoyable tune. Glad to see y'all back in the swing of things.
fj Thanks floyd appreciate the comments and analysis. Peter

Fun song!! A bit of the lighter side of heartache. Catchy melody and nice guitar! Also feel the vocal could come up a bit, particularly in parts. Great guitar outro!! Enjoyed!! Take care. Greg Thanks Greg - the vocal is what you get when the guitarist does the mix! Peter

Peter and Leon,
Catchy tune, and like the lyrics. Definitely think the vocal can come more forward just a tad—but that’s an easy adjustment, and then you’ll really have something. Very listenable and engaging. Good luck with this one!
All the best,
Deej

What were the previous lyrics for it? I'm super curious! But really great job with this. Ember, Thanks. The lyrics are now for a new song I'm still working on. Peter

I agree with Ray - the vocal seems buried, especially at the beginning. I'm listening to speakers, not headphones. Bouncy and fun. I love the way the chorus builds at the end. I expected a fade at 2:50, but why cover up a perfectly good solo? Listening on near field monitors and I agree. The guitar parts are very good, nice playing! I also like the backing tracks. Just bring up the vocals. Thanks Mario. Peter

Sounds good. I wasn't really smitten with the lyric at first, but the overall "feel" of the song tilted me toward hearing it as an old tale of holiday love lost with enough time passed to reminisce a bit more light-heartedly. Really liked the solo on the way out. Thanks - certainly not one of Leon's most profound lyrics just a quickie to go with the backing. Peter

Peter&Leon.
Very positive, light hearted song. Listens very well. Guitars are super!
Enjoyed it!
P.S. I read first two comments... about the vocals being buried a bit. I have very (very!) neutral headphones and it sounds good to me, but I probably agree that with slight bass coloring vocals can easily sink.
Thank you for sharing!
Misha.
