Pro General Comments:<\/b> There's a lot going on here. At first, it's a nice vibe - feels pretty modern country, lots of energy, good vocal performance, tight, strong band. But I never immediately connect with the lyric and what's truly happening. There's a ton of set up to get to the hook, which is a phrase I haven't heard before, so I am left wondering exactly what the song is about. That may just be my shortcoming, but my main concern is that musically the shift into the chorus feels like such a massive modal\/key change that it might be a bridge, not a chorus, or even a whole new song. That transition, I suggest, should be reworked to feel more like a radio song (the simpler, the better). You're also clocking in at nearly five minutes, and you should shoot for around 3 minutes for a tempo country radio tune. I think this song has the bones to be super awesome, I would just love a shorter arrangement, and a different musical set up for that chorus lift. It's got tons of energy, a great vocal and a really cool vibe, it's just not quite there yet. Perhaps there is also a lyrical way to clarify the meaning of your hook for those of us not familiar with the phrase as well?
