Hi Peter. Effective song. I think the vocals need upping a bit as they're getting a little lost in the background guitars.
Vic Thanks Vic - have made an adjustment to the vocal. Peter

Very different from what I'm used to hearing from you guys! I like it, great groove, lots of energy.
Nice change in mood at 3:20, and I can really hear Janice do her cool thing during that part, she seems a bit buried in the mix for the rest of the song (for my tastes).
Good vocal from Leon, and good write.
Lovely playing as per usual, Peter, nice fills and great outro solo.
Good song guys and gal, enjoyed!
Thanks Dave. Peter

SOLID sound. Good write. Peter, Leon, Janice, you have such gifted talent, and when you combine it you really create some magic. I really enjoy your playing, Peter. Wish you lived nearby and we could jam. This song is polished to a fine shine. You have the mix perfect for the style, but I would prefer to hear the vocals a bit more upfront. Thanks Marty. A jam is only a Dropbox away! Peter

Peter, you had me from the first measure. Everything I would have said already has been said. All I can say is WOW this is absolutely fantastic. Great vocal, harmonies, backing tracks and mix.

I'm a sucker for nostalgic love songs. Good lyrics.
I especially like the melody and lyrics of the chorus. Sticks with you, you know.
Aces guitar work. Love that ending.

I loved this tune. It started out and gave me a 80 vibe then slipped into a very cool rock/pop tune. Super vocal Leon and very tasteful harmonies. Very neat hook in this song. I will be humming the melody for the rest of the day. Guitar was excellent Peter. Well done.. Thanks a lot Scott. Peter

Peter & Leon & Janice Fun and unexpected tune! Sounds like a fusion of Old school pop rock and K-pop. Solid composition and performance! I liked the rest/drift at 3:25 and tensioning of Peter solo winding into the end. I do think Janice is a bit quiet on this, I would bring her vocals up...maybe in some places. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.
Thanks Misha Never listened to K-pop.....I was actually thinking a bit of The Who when I wrote the song. Peter

Great storytelling tune. Great guitar throughout. I like how you "brought it down" for the next to last verse. That was a nice effect. Excellent work.

Man.... What a good song. I like to listen before I read the credits. I was thinking this really sounds like the LA Hard Rock style.... And lo and behold, it was. That chorus reminds me of something but I can't place it. No matter, your chorus is good as is the whole song.
Good job to everyone involved. I was wondering if that was maybe your sister on bgv.... Janice.... Should have known.
Totally enjoyed it.

Sweetly heavy backing. All those rhythm instruments played so well together, and the vocals joined in convincingly. Nice cool-down and ramp back up. Peter's guitars gave that extra voice to the band. Much enjoyed this.

Hi PeterF,
Nice composition. Personally, I find the lead guitar too far back (except in the last part) because it is rich in variations. The voices are impeccable. The whole is pleasant. Great collaborative work.
