Really great cut , the story of a family realizing the weight that a father carries , would recommend this jam to anyone far and near. Too many times the words of our elders are over looked and pushed to the side, the guidance, the protection and love that a parent offers, till the day they are no longer there for us. Through the teachings we learn to survive. Great cut , that shouldn't be heard lightly.

I love the guitar picking intro with a nice chord progression. When the vocals kicks in, they are clear & strong. Love the lyrics, especially the joke and jive part. Then the tambourine comes in, very cool! Ooh, bitter memories - I feel that. Then there is a bridge, a pause with a nice build up. This is a great song! This song should be played on the radio. It might be just a tad too long. But otherwise ~ perfect! Love it!

Great story telling! Thanks for keeping the melody simplistic enough for your listeners to float along your journey. Peace, Blessings and healing. Gina C. Simon, SSsongs Look forward to future sounds.

the melody is great.. simple mixing. makes for a light song but the message is clear.. very nice background ...original thoughts are hard to find but this is right on the point.. I hope to hear more ..? damir

Very authentic sound, and sound that takes us to another time. Quality in the sound and good execution of the music. It could be playing anywhere and it has a long way to go in this style. Nice lyrics, and what need this music and style.

Nice acoustic guitar riff... the vocals sound great and very professional. The vocal performance is nice and emotive... Kind of reminds me a little of the Fruit Bats. I yearned for a little bigger hook at the chorus, but all in all a good track.

This song starts with an acoustic guitar and light atmospheric synthesizer introduction Percussion and and piano come into build the song. The vocals are sounding a bit Dan Smith/Bastille. The lyrics are analyzing the the lyricist's deceased dad, who hides his pain with laughter like the lead character in the 1890 Pagliacci opera. The "Pain Is His Own" song pretty much in an A/B (Verse/Chorus) format/arrangement but there is a short bridge/interlude and then back to the chorus out. This sounds like a college radio play tune-professional in all aspects. Nice job.

delicatezze di inizio canto buon pezzo orecchiabile. ben strutturato con buoni duetti la partenza e' veramente dolce e mi piace anche il cantante. va bene tutto l'insieme e' ottimo e si scolta volentieri perché' e' molto orecchiabile

Hi Folks and a very good evening to you and thank you for the invite to review your track "THE PAIN WAS HIS OWN" which may i say that i found to be in my personal music opinion pure tranquillity the whole way through the composition,the melody and lyrics are very strong indeed and your vocals and harmonies are top notch,the production and recording is very professional and i truly enjoyed listening to your song and look forward to hearing more from you very soon.

Scribe and Sage takes the listener on a short journey through some lonely poetic musings and hidden personal catastrophe via ," the pain was his own" The song is a contradictory, joyful yet woeful upbeat musical jaunt. Very listenable. A tune that makes you want to smile and be sad at the same time.

No complex melodies, often repetitions. Good to sing along with. Mixing is good. For me always important are the vocals. And here I can understand every word of the lyrics. The end of the song, the solo vocals, is something modern. So I think, it's a good job done. I can imagine that this is played in a church. Btw I did not know that grief can get decembered :-)

This song, "The pain was his own", is beautifully done, inciteful, beautiful. Memories, sad, mournful but gives an answer to how to reach out to others, "see the danger of the hurt that lurked within." I want to hear this more. Musicianship is excellent, vocals perfect, beat wonderful, the harmony reminds me of Mama Cass group. Please share more. "Warm us with your stories". Loved listening "The pain was his own".
