Pro General Comments: Hi there.Please note: I don't comment on quality of individual instrumentation as my expertise delves more into overall performance, marketing, melody, etc Great Start.. beautiful vocals... Striking... Percussion provides great a bg underneath vocal. The spirit of the vocal really drives the song forward. It captures that magical energy you want when you present a song. Well done.Beautiful feel for this song. The melody doesn't disappoint. You obviously also have great arrangement ideas that make this song flow from head to toe. It's bursting with life and energy. The vocals are excellent and really bring the song to life. Good instincts. Nice mix and sound and instrumentation.You might want to start without going full energy from the beginning at (:16).. Because then when at - 1:26, the momentum appears to go down a bit. A simple arrangement technique that lets you build slowly- less instrumentation at the beginning might add to the dynamics a bit more.Great instrumental work here- captivating. You might also want to bring the solo instrumentation in a little later- after a verse or two? Grab us with your story first a bit more... It does really work nicely though. Great instrumental choices.Lyrics work and flow well. Your choices are natural which you want. If you want to pitch this as an Xmas song you may want to fool around with adding a verse or two that has some more Christmas references- more than likely keeping religious type references? That's how it feels it would go.. You might keep it more universal which will help in pitching by not making it too religious though. Up to you.
