The variation of the hard driving guitars and drums to the lone piano is powerful.
It reflect well the harsh reality and the sad sense of hopelessness.
STRONG vocal.
No need to parse it out. It speaks for itself.
A sad true life story presented well in your gifted hands. Thank you VERY much for your really nice feedback. As always, much appreciated! Enjoyed it in the thought provoking manner, That's more than I could have hoped for  Thanks again!

You have done a brilliant job using your friend's background story for inspiration.
This is an outstanding write, an outstanding arrangement and production, and a spell-binding vocal.
Everything about this resonates with authenticity and musical competence.
These lyrics are fantastic and you capture this story of life incredibly well.
To my ears, this is the story of a fighter and a survivor.
What a pleasure to listen to. It's so well done!
-Noel
P.S. I sincerely hope your friend made it. She deserves to. Noel, your comments always make me blush a little. Stop that! ... Um, no, don't Thank you so much for your REALLY nice words, which I really appreciate. I don't know if she made it or not, she has a very common name so it's impossible to track her down. But I hope so...

Fantastic song. STrong melody with power. The synth voice doesn't sound synth-y at all. Awesome work with the band. Thanks Scott, especially for your feedback on the vocals. Much appreciated ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif)

B.D.,
I'll join the chorus of accolades on this tune . . . killer in all the right ways. Not sure why but it reminds me of Jim Steinman tune . . . it's got that kind of scope and breadth. Brilliant work on the production elements. Excellent lyrics that really hit home. Superb tune!
Deej Thank you, Deej. That you mention Steinman makes me a little proud, and I'm glad to hear that you like the lyrics, because lyrics are my weakest point and I'm working hard to improve them. Thank you very much for that!

Hi, B.D. As others have mentioned, it's the vocal that drives the song, and you've gotten a muscular performance that matches the drive of the song. Excellent work on everything: lyrics, backing track, mix - it all sounds great! I assume this is Felicia, although you've credited the vocal to Goldmania Bella. The Dreamtonics voice license prohibits doing that: (1) When Presenting a Rendition, the User must not use names other than designated by Dreamtonics to identify the SVD.Thank you very much for your kind and detailed feedback, David. As far as I remember, Dreamtonics doesn't allow you to use a different _singer_ name, but it's fine for them if you use the name of a/your band. But it's too late now anyway, I can't edit my original post any more.

Really good song with stark lyrics. Vox were perfect for this. Synth? I feel bad for your friend, wish we could fix situations like this. Thank you, TuneMonger, for your nice comment and for thinking of my friend, I really appreciate it. And, yes, the vocals are done with Synthesizer V
