Lots of Potential
The voicing/mixing of the instruments strikes me as a little odd during first impression, but I decided to keep listening. I'm glad I did, because there are some really nice moments throughout the song. Your vocalist is strong and pleasant to listen to. Pretty good composing too, and a good message to share. Honestly, with some changes to instrument voicing and mixes, and a few tweaks and variations creatively throughout the song...this could have radio potential.

Has Potential
First thing I would like to mention is that anyone using their talents to praise our God is a beautiful thing right off the bat. As a fellow Christian artist, I know that this is our calling and always hoping to make him proud. The song has potential but is kind of on the raw side. Needs work. Thinking it's also a bit too long. The production is such an important aspect of your music. If you would like the chance of getting it played on the radio, it needs to sound like a record. Listen to other radio tracks, on decent stations, and ask yourself, is it as a good a quality. I know money is tough these days but having quality recordings are essential if you want to take the next step. Pick a studio that will get your record quality and not just a bit better than the home studio. It's going to cost a few buck. Keep working on the music. God bless.

gran bella voce
gran bella voce ma non so perché' qualcosa nella musica non mi convince non e' la canzone che in se stessa può' andare anche bene ma dispiace sentire una cosi' bella voce in un arrangiamento un po dilettantesco questo e' il mio parere

Good pick me up
I came across this track on a drab, cold, misty morning and it lifted my spirit. Great recording with clear vocals, terrific message and the use of distortion on the guitars give it a feeling of crying anguish, and controlled desperation that I think many people are feeling at this time. Good job team, well done. Jesus is the answer to the problems in the world and this songs points you to him.

Bop review
Hi everyone,it’s time to review another artist here on number one,the song starts off with a cool sounding filanged guitar to begin into a heavy type of slow rock song. The rhythm section is nice and tight setting up to some real nice guitar riffs and solos. The song reminds me of the band from the 80s the missing persons and the female vocalists voice has sort of a Gwen Stefany . Overall this was nicely done and delivers the message of god.

Seeking Asylum!
Really wasn't expecting to like this song and this band as much as I do. The vocalist shines with strong control, the message is right on point. The production is more alternative than classic or progressive rock but is very current sounding and I hope others find it as refreshing as I do within the Christian music genre. Kudos.

My thoughts on Light Of The World ...
I love the intro with the electric guitar, a gentle lead in to this ballad works well. The crescendo of instruments rising up and then dropping suddenly to reveal the lead vocals is a nice surprise to the ears. Her voice *whoever that is) is clear and strong -and the words are easy to understand from jump - that's a big plus for this song. The words cut to the heart of our present culture of hate and sin - no holding back! The truth and honesty in the lyrics hit hard and make the chorus - Light of the world ... very powerful. Simple but real - and godly wisdom to all who have ears to hear. I would love to see you perform this live - O yeah! The lead guitar solo and the overall licks and guitar work make this song fun to listen to and adds a rock edge to this song that without might be a bit hallow. Kudos to the lead guitarist - excellent fills. This song is one I played over a few times so I could take it all in - and each time I listened I appreciated the arrangement and melody all the more. Really. The only weakness would be a cool harmony on the chorus , not the first run through - but definitely on the others in the songs. A keyboard - say a nice organ sound would have put more muscle in this song. That being said, this song is incredible and just a blessing to my ears. I'm so glad you shared this song with the world and here on N1M. Your band rocks and then some! In Jesus Name Michael D'Aigle / fool4christ

my thoughts
Thank you for sharing your music. The band is tight and the vocals are out front right where they belong. Vocalist has a really good voice. If it were me, I would change the effects on the guitar. They dont match the song, very thin and tinny. What he is playing is good. However it doesn't match the song and its way to distorted. The crescendo's are WAY extreme, I would make the exits more subtle. Good job but in my opinion, it needs work. Oh, the lyrics are VERY GOOD.
