Pro General Comments: Greetings Cindy,Thanks for returning for a review. First, let me congratulate you for trying a new song genre that is out of the comfort zone of the previous work you have submitted to me. Everything about the celebratory melody,your rhythmic vocal,and the bouncy arrangement suggest an expression that totally agrees with you.The opening instrumental and scat-singing set a up delightful mood for the listener to move to. Opening with the chorus is a good move structurally, but let me offer a lyrical suggestion that might make a difference, since the chorus is repeated many times. You want each word of a Latin song to fall naturally off the tongue. Try this, "I hear the music and the drums that are beating, My heart can't wait to get out on the floor,Come join the dance and follow the rhythm,It's a world only you can explore". Having a strong rhyme in the chorus will make it more memorable.Both verses work well as does the first bridge.But the outro should be "It's a world only you can explore"(three times), followed by a slow fade of "Dance, Dance follow the rhythm, Dance ,Dance follow the song...". For my ears this is preferable to an abrupt ending. Cindy,I hope you try these lyrical changes that won't make your vocal sound as rushed as it is now in those spots.
