Step up to Fatherhood

Helpful

Nice sound. A little too much echo, but that is easy to do. The guitar work is very nice, not overdone and carries a nice melody. The lyric is very well written as well. The story is clear and the message comes across well. This is an important message to get out to this generation. Well done. My only suggestion would be to add some harmonies at key places but you fulfilled the goal of every songwriter and that is have the right sound for the right message. Great job. And did I mention great vocals!

This was a warm, heartfelt beautiful song about a father's love for his daughter. It is a great reminder of how important family is and I think it has ac encourtaging message as well as and exhortation to follow the good example of the dad in the song. NIce acoustic guitar ans vocal work

Ó mar salgado Quanto do teu sal São lágrimas de Portugal Por te cruzr-mos quantas mães choraram Quantos filhos Em vão rezaram Quem quer passar Além do Bujador Tem que passar Além da dôr Valeu a pena Tudo vale a pena Se a alma não é pequena

First of all I will state that I wouldn't be a fan of this genre of music, But in saying that I really enjoyed this song. I loved how to artists incorporated the guitars to fit together well, One playing strumming and the other playing a lick behind it to keep it flowing in time and being a guitarist myself Loved it. In saying that... My only downfall and the reason I only gave it 4 (Sorry for nit picking) But I want to be professional and honest, I felt even though the singer has a nice country voice and was in key through out, I thought it lacked feeling. It didn't draw me in enough and it felt Very one way. I would have liked to hear a bit more emotion in the way he sang, each verse and chorus sounded the same a bit more emphasis is needed there to engage the audience into the story. Because of the flow of the guitars in the song keeping it going, it needed the vocals to take it to another level, to me a verse tells the story and you find out what its all about through the verses and then the chorus should be the reason why the story teller is feeling that way and the singing should feel that way and make you want to hear more. A lot of musicians and bands use dynamics in this way through the music if the lyrics lack a little, but in this case the song just flows along with no dynamics (It does not need dynamics) but for me it does needs the lyrics to change emotionally in places. Just my view but a beautiful piece all the same. good work.

I do like acoustic songs And this is no exception I like it It has a country feel to it and country music is not something I would normally listen to

This is not my style of music that being said I have this song 4 stars because I can tell it would take skill to play and the sound editing is great very crisp I would love to hear this guy do Irish pub style songs maybe that will help get more notoriety or give it a different kind of crowd listening response as i said it's not my style but it is very good music Young swerv aka nomicon aka phatj

Lovely song

Helpful

I enjoyed it as the percussionist of the Lost Dogs my humble review go as such.vocals and lyrics were lovely I could use a little more vocal inflections but I enjoyed the lyrics. First verse sounded to me to have a hint of country but immediately dissipated picking was quite consistent really enjoyed it. My recommendation my humble recommendation add a bit more break or variations just coloring the pallet a little more with a bit of diversity other than that it is far better than anything I think I have done personally very nice.

Good job

Helpful

Overall the track is good, a few clicks and pops throughout the track and some noise at the beginning. Perhaps a key change towards the end of the song just to keep listeners engaged as I found myself drifting after about 2 minutes wanting to hear some changes. Guitar sounds very clear. Vocals are simple. The message of the song is also clear.

Heartfelt

Helpful

It's nice, very heart felt. This song has a very sweet story. The music needs some transition or change in like in the form of a bridge. The song is very pretty. Your chorus needs to be a bridge, something a little different from the rest of the song to make it a real ear catcher.

Good song

Helpful

This song was obviously written to a daughter which always make it special. This is very John Denverish type of music which is beautiful but in truth can get a bit boring at parts. It's a good song but nothing that is going to make an impression on any charts.

Review for John Martin

Very nice intro. The song has a nice feel and a lot of nice chords. The song is very peaceful and traditional and reminds me of John Denver a little. Needs a band, though.

I am digging this, I am about to marry a girl and take on two stepdaughters, this song had her tearing up. Love the guitar work, your voice is great. I may have to dance with my future daughter to this song. Keep it up!

Review for Step up to fatherhood

Helpful

Very smooth finger picking in the intro and throughout! great sound quality too man what kinda guitar? Perfect amount of reverb on the vocals, sounds great but not overpowering! Great lyrics too! It's actually very close to home for me.. I love the line about the family mile very nice. I don't know if you're interested in meshing some different styles much but I'd love to hear a part with a more upbeat kind of feel to express not just a willing acceptance but excitement! But that's just the direction I'd love to see it go, it's great as is still!

BEAUTIFUL SONG

Helpful

THIS IS INSPIRING LYRICALLY. THE SUBJECT MATTER IS VERY CURRENT IN THIS DAY AND AGE OF BROKEN MARRIAGES. AS FAR AS THE MUSIC GOES, THE GUITAR SOUND IS VERY FULL AND THE LEAD AND BASS COMPLEMENT THAT QUITE WELL. IF I WERE JOHN I WOULD TAKE A FEW MORE CHANCES WITH THE MELODY ALTHOUGH ITS OBVIOUS HE'S GOING FOR A VERY TRADITIONAL FEEL. THE TROUBLE IS IT GETS A LITTLE MONOTONOUS AND TAKES THE LISTENERS ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE BEAUTIFUL MESSAGE OF THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG.

Una ternura de canción. Delicada ejecución de las guitarras. Lindo timbre de voz. El amor de padre a hijo/a, buena temática. La familia, los lazos afectivos: fundamentales!

Nice Track

Helpful

Ok, I like this track but I do have some comments. The overall feel is relaxing, the acoustic tinkers away beautifully and the vocal has that great sounding american country style going on. The lyrics tell a nice story and are constructed well. However the only real gripe I would have is the lack of variation in the song especially the vocals. Would be nice to hear the vocal change around a bit to make it more interesting. Please note this is not about the tone, just the structure. This is not a negative but a constructive observation. A great song that could be even better with a bit of variation. Overall I like it John, nice work :)
