Thanks Johnny

1) The lead work is busier than it should be. Especially at the intro and early parts of the verse. Its not wrong. Its just busy...
After refreshing me ears away from it for a day... I think it sounds a bit rushed or ahead at times rather than sitting on or behind the beat... inconsistent, a redo is on the list. But really for performance issues I hear. I held back intentionally on it. I wanted it to be more of a signature than just playing to fill a spot or two.
2) The Structure has a nice form... The intro reminds me alittle of " "The World Tonight" ...Mixed in with some Wilburies. Of Course, from my point of view that's all major kudos
Wasn't familiar with "The World Tonight" after one listen I see where you're coming from.
3) The lyrics are nicely done... the subject ...well , when you wrote this, were you contemplating an exit? LOL . Its a nice romantic expression...
Ha... was a two fold an exit and accepting I was never good enough for the stage but still grateful for what i have been able to do...
4) Vocals / BG... Production need balanced tracks.
Yup
5) Abrupt ending... Add 4-6 counts measure to end of it wrap it up after that brilliant little lick you throw in there...
Yeah that's been on my mind to lengthen the song at the end... something I'm going to visit.
I wont comment on production, since its always an uphill struggle for all of us. But, its a nice clean compilation.
I don't do much post with these tunes just a monitor mix after I add individual reverb here and there. At this point they're for my own amusement.
Thank you for taking the time PD!
All of you guys have given some really good feedback...
Much appreciated!
