Pro General Comments: Hello and thank you for your submission. Really enjoyed this track, had my head bobbing. Theme wise and overall concept is a home run. I love the throwback intro, really gave it a some tension and anticipation, Getting right into it helps a lot especially in an instant gratification era and you deliver. I sort of sense you are holding back a little on the the vocals..they are good be bold be brash, own it and the inspiration that made you write this song!! Definitely do not leave out the vocals! Perhaps re-record them..the part where you sing "please please please" this..this urgency this angst is what I want to hear more of! Think of Robert Smith of the Cure...how his voice is an instrument..he belts things out high, low, soft yells screams, whispers..I want to hear this in you.

Quote From Pro: Flightside's'20 Yard's had me at the intro, swept me away into a head bobbin sway that would make the Turtles happy together!

Pro General Comments: Great song! The simplicity of the instrumentation works for a song with such a great voice and great lyrics... The vocal style is very pop to me. I am really impressed with your voice, very nice texture and very warm and pleasing to the hear. Your vocal range is strong!Lyrics are also strong . The arrangement is excellent.Background vocals are nice..I would have like to hear them a bit more in the mix.The mix is ok, the piano can be a very hard instrument to mix and blend with vocals because of the mid rangeyness of the piano. I would have like to hear a bit more presence in the vocals and a touch more reverb.Yes it is very suitable for film/tv use!Have you considerd adding a cello or bass cello or stand up bass?That could add a bit of low end to the composition without taking away from your vocal melody or your lyrics.Overall I love this song ! I have listened to it already 10 times.Also my 15 year old daughter loves it! I would love to hear more of your music!!Keep doing what you are doing. you sound great and in time your talent and your ablity to learn something new everyday will take you to the next level.Patience is very important.Sorry for the delay!Cortez FarrisCortezrobotcity@gmail.com6468306997
