"turn it up
burn it down"

That's worth the price of admission alone!

The lyric is succinct and just cuts through it all. And it is well delivered by your vocal performance and supported by a great band and mix (very effective builds and dynamics).

Nothing left to say other than we agree with ALL of the aforementioned accolades.

Terrific listen and addition to our playlist.

cool tune.

The bass was booming on my computer a bit. Might want to tame it. Since no one else has mentioned it, it might just be these crappy speakers.

I'll listen later on my buds.

Yeah that has a Lou Reed kind of feel.... mixed with Dylan.

I liked it.

A good write... I also enjoyed the chord progression you chose... It fits the lyrics so well... I actually picked up the acoustic & strummed along... Nice production... I like it!

Great sounding track Bob!! The bass may be a little loud....my headphones handle it well but it definitely resonates. The arrangement is awesome.......great build of the instruments. I think the band is PERFECT. Some really cool lyrics. Definitely one for your greatest hits album!! Take care. Greg

Very nice song as usual. The starting chords remind me to Donovan's song "Atlantis" but here there is more rockin' energy.

"rsdean"...

You write lyrics like someone who only comes outside at night (not literally, of course!), but in the sense that if they were exposed to the light of day, their meaning would be too much to bear. There are thoughts and feelings that simply must be communicated under the cover of darkness, because they're so intimate, and so personally revelatory. Isn't that the reason why our lovemaking so often takes place after the sun goes down?

The RealTracks provide a depth of musical empathy necessary to illuminate the drama in your anxious lyrics as they come out in your aching vocal. That held acoustic bass, in particular, is so deep and resonant that it sounds bottomless.

You create your own, unique world in your songs, "rsdean". "Light It Up" shows us another corner of it.

Peering into your reality,

LOREN
