Colly,
There`s a 50`s feel to this enjoyable ballad.Your vocal sounds good and I liked the arrangement -particularly the strings coming in. Nice one!

Colly
Nice classic rock sound with a top quality vocal.
Just a small suggestion for what it's worth the 2nd instrumental with the strings is more defined as an instrumental whereas the first one has a nice sounding guitar but it sounds a bit far back and a bit like the backing track to me(which you may have intended).
Anyway nice song and lyric.
Peter

Sounds like you're a quick learner colly!
The only improvements I could suggest would be the inclusion of a hook and a more clearly defined melody in the break sections.

An incredible retro production on a dead-on 50s sounding retro hit. High quality stuff.
You did some unexpected things towards the end that added a brilliant twist to the genre. Pretty amazing man.
Great job.
