David Cuny is right: sounds both like Springsteen AND Bono, however - at the same time - like neither, i.e. you have your own, trademark sound that is neither.

"The city is dark, I can’t read the signs
Third rail blind, and I lost my mind
All the things that you think you need
Are the things you left behind"

"Went searching for truth
But now I’m trying to hide"

"Out of my luck, and out of control
I gave my heart and they stole my soul
The only things that matter now
Are the things that don’t grow old"

The lyrics are outstanding. It's hard to pick and choose what to quote! The "but I'm standing alone" line is superb. Your voice is perfect for this kind of song, the writing and production - I couldn't find a flaw in either.

You are an original. Please keep sharing - thanks!

Nice work and I'd say mission accomplished. You are a musical chameleon.

Really well done.

David,

You have one of the most creative minds. You always surprise me with not only your creativity but also your excellent musicianship, vocal and mixing skills, song after song after song.

This is fantastic!

Instrumentation, arrangement, and progression sound like U2. I agree with the other post, hints of Springsteen. It's hard to sound like Bono. The woh-oh sounds like Bono at the end.

Love the lyrics.

David,

Great audio production. I'm not much of a Bono or U2 fan so I can't tell you how close you got to their sound.

Liked it a lot, as with many here, sounded more like the Boss than Bono to me. Hey, wish I had a Springsteen voice in me somewhere!

Hello David,

When listening to your song, i could only think what Bono would have said!
A very nice song with that special vibe in it. The one that tells you it's a Snyder song!
I think only you can do it that way.
I like it a lot. And although I don't know much of Bono songs, I believe everyone who wrote you were a musical look alike.

One problem on SoundCloud. I wanted to write something, but that wasn't possible. I received a message it could not be saved. So only a 'like' I could give (did that).

Hans

You're on "The Edge" with that guitar work.

I think you nail the genre!

Cool!

Well done, David. A very clever pastiche. The lyrics are excellent and about as nonsensical as most U2 compositions.
