Testify
A good sound. I might suggest adding country to the subcategories. This song almost sounds like it could have been on the rubber soul album. It uses many of the instruments that "I've just seen a face used." But it is unique to itself the male vocals are sung well and the singer has a unique sound that helps distinguish it from anything else out there. The one flaw i see is no pysh over the top. Every thing is to smooth and even i dont get a rise and fall effect which might be the mix.

Nice music work ....
In this beautiful folk song .... very good production and beautiful and simple orchestration with musical instruments that bind well to each other, giving this enjoyable musical result ... I really like the voice that sings and seems to feel totally Meaning of the lyrics ... the conclusion of this because of the expressiveness it puts in the interpretation and not because I know Italian ... wonderful and harmonica, which for me steals the musical performance of the piece, with the melancholy atmosphere that exudes .... A song that will please you surpassed because of the excellent work that has been done and the sensitivity they have shown over the all coefficients !!!!!

Very nice
Very nice song with a nice start. I was in doubt at the start if it was country, because it remembers too. Has a nice voice and guitar harmony, the "gaita" also makes a difference in this song. I was expecting english, but italian was amazing since I heard few italian songs. Very Nice song! Add some lyrics at the lyric field, since reading it would be good to understand the meaning. Thanks

Great song
Love this song ! Love the easy beat and the way it skips down through the chords. Very uplifting and has it's own energy. Would love to hear an English version of the words as I reckon they are also strong and contribute to the mood of the song. Great job !!!

Awesome song!
This is a great song. The guitar and music pulled me in right off the bat. The words flow smoothly and I wish I spoke the language, I would love to know what the song is about. It is a very great song and conveys a very happy mood. Awesome job and keep up the wonderful work.

A Folk Pop candy
Mauro Cipri offers a classic Folk-Pop song with all the right components: straight-up to the microphone acoustic guitar strumming, a light, danceable rhythm, a pleasant lead vocal and even the quintessential harmonica solo. The song is fun to listen to, with the melodic line pleasant and harmonic. If you enjoy the genre - this song will become a favorite in your song list. If there is one quibble I can mention is the lack of musical development through the song - the song is 4:38 minutes long and has the beautifully composed melodic line repeat itself too many times without a "c part" or a dramatic change in musical arrangement - which could make the song provide a deeper sense of musical development. That said - it is a cool piece worthy of following and enjoying time and time again

Nice work
Nice full sound, all the levels are great, I've been doing the same, do it yourself, no drama that's how you do it on the web now. Nice melodies with the second guitar.nice harp playing, you could dance to it no problem.

Nice Kick to it..
Good country feel. I do not speak French so I know not what the song is about and can only comment on the feel,production and musical contribution, all of which are very good. The song is engageging, uplifting and has good follow through. I like the consistancy of the backing guitar. The backing music is very solid and provides a great foundation for the lyric line. Great job. Wish I knew what it was about, but I get a sense of that from the mood of the song itself. Thanks for doing this!

Nice Song
Hi Mauro, you have a nice tenor voice. The song reminds a bit of a western movie, with the hero riding on his horse in the desert. Especially the mouth harp makes it all complete. Very nice and entertaining song. Good mix and not overproduced. Although not in English, it appeals enough to forget the difficulties with the language. Good melody , good structure. It's the first song from you that I hear, but I want to hear much more from you. You flagged it as rock and folk, but for me it's more a folk song (even country & western if you like). I'm curious about your rock songs ... Keep up the good work !

Spirito Cantautorale
Nella migliore delle tradizioni cantautorali italiani con spiccato accenno ai sound internazionali, tipiche di alcuni brani del repertorio di De Gregori. I richiami al west country, e alle ballad americane. La profonda e calda voce, canta di un testo di denuncia. Direi un gran bel brano, arricchito da un' ottima esecuzione. Molto bene! Grazie per averlo condiviso!

Fun Springtime Song
When I see a song categorized as Rock or New Wave, plus Folk Rock I'm wondering what we'll be hearing. Here, I get the Folk Rock, but not the other 2 categories listed. The songs intro with guitar is catchy and fun. The vocals in Italian are on pitch, in tune and enjoyable to hear. I think that's one thing I like about non-English songs, you just enjoy the vocals without trying to get the story in the vocals to distract you. Nice song.

Testimone Review
Mauro, this is a great, easy flowing sound on this tune. Very well polished. I can only imagine how it sounds live! I am a live guy, so that's how I think of this tune (I think the more natural sounding the better - percusion is a little spread, in my opinion, I'm curious how that would sound coming from a single location in the mix, but not a deal breaker, just a curious point). Energy to this song has a wonderful atmospheric ease to it, I'd love to set your stuff on at a party or on a patio for brunch at some cafe. I only wish I understood Italian!

My review of Testimone
Very upbeat and keeps my foot tapping throughout. I like the classic jangle of the guitar and the changes in the the melody of the lyrics. All in all, a very enjoyable song to listen to and I'd like to hear more from Mauro.
