Songs From The Trailer Park
Hi, Let me start by saying that I review material from the prospective of commercial viability.... can you place the material with an established artist... Coming from the other side of the coin... with you as the artist.. you either like it or you don't. The melody is well designed and pleasant to listen to... nice job... The chord changes fit together and take the listener to different places.... Instrumentation was well thought out and makes sense... Due to the back and forth travel travel and the use of different recording set-ups... the overall sound of the track lacks clarity and punch. Also the lead vocal feels a little buried to me..... The lyrics (prosody) feels right.. but the content of the lyrics feels underdeveloped to me (thrown away on some lines)... If it were me, I would look into better word choices in order to express the content of the song. It's a difficult subject matter and a rewrite in my opinion would help to improve the song and at the same time offer you the opportunity to record a new, cleaner version. Over all a nice job. Keep Writing! RW

I like it
Just one question, it seems like the music is going to fast for the song, alot going one with the piano, i like it, dont get me wrong but it seems the vocals really get lost in the music, i can hear the music alone in some kind of a movie score setting, again just my opinion, but i like it

A Lyrical piece with allusions to early Prog rock music
An interesting piece, actually. The lyrical tune is hearkening back to early YES and Genesis songs with heavy classical music influence. The vocalist probably heard one or two songs by Ian Anderson and The Alan Parsons Project -and that is FINE because they do all the right things with those influences - they are inspired by them but are still offering a musical piece that is very much their own. If you like old Rock music and early prog-rock - this is for you, and a well done piece at that.

Leave Me
Leave me is a beautiful piece of music that keeps you hooked till the end, only to replay. It sounds like David Bowies piano player (Mike Garson) and Thom Yorke from Radiohead spliced together. A great mix of classical and indie rock. The guitar melody and arpeggio flows into a strum without a fault and over all of this wonderful music is a stella vocal performance that has feeling and soul. My favourite moments are the piano chops over the chorus. Brilliant !

good distance for write a song
we think that it's the good distance to compose, far from the other composer! Awesome! When I hear your song, it's like a radiohead's song; piano inspire myself and voice lead me out of this planet!!!!! You're awesome! I DO LOVE your song and I give you a 5/5. You desearve the max note! Keep on compose! I get you in my playlist!

Nice song with emotional touch
This is a nice song, with a melodic touc. Good vocal . I would recommend smooth keyboard tunes to follow the nice melody and gice it the arrangement lift it deserves. It´s really a good tune and I honestly love it. Don´t hesitate to work a Little more with a maybe more soft background. As a Composer (subjectice) I would love to arrange it. The core is superb. I can hardly imagine what a female coir harmony would do but of course this is a subjective opinion

Sticks with me
Surprisingly good. You would never know the artists recorded this so far apart from each other. It sounds like everyone is together in the same room. That says a lot for the production values of the recording. The song also has a timelessness about it which speaks to the ability of the artists to be true to the song. The playing is superb and enjoyable to listen to, and the instruments blend well

Leave Me
"Leave Me" has has a beautiful melody hook and strong vocals. The Liberace-like piano might serve the song well if more sparsely interspersed. But the recording would be better served if the vocals were given more space and a bridge or verse were made in the arrangement for a piano solo. These changes would lead to a stronger song. That said, I very much enjoy the melody and vocals of Leave Me.

Nice intro soft melody can be something here
I like the deep melancholia int he piano session. May better sync between a more higher acousric string guitar. It loose your intention. For me. but its a good effort. Misses also som percussions bongo or calsbashor even cojones would make it

Freakin' Cool Sound
Okay, first things first. The piano in this song is kick-ass. And the combination of genres here is so unique and totally works. You got it right: Classical + Classic Rock. The vocals sound like a Queen ballad. I also love that the guitar is nylon strings. I can't say enough how cool this song is. Musically complex balanced by a simple and beautiful melody. Epic. Please keep making music! (P.S. this is my first 5-star rating)

nice song
Hi. Nice song. Catchy title-phrase. Musically well done. Great voice. Majestic piano. The composition could have been a little bit better though... The song ends a bit abruptly. You should check out Rikky Rooksby: " A course on singer-songwriting", song structures. The voice is very touching though; it puts in a huge amount of drama. But if the refrain would have been repeated at the end and you would have added some sort of fade-out the song could have gotten really stuck in the brain. The more the composition is elaborated, nuanced the more it will really stick in your brain. That's my opinion. But hey, great musicians. Check out my music on N1M: spiceypete. And please send me a message or a review. Greetings. Pieter B. from Ghent, Belgium

Wow!
Amazing vocals and piano work! Its a beautiful song! I'm no expert or anything but my "producer" side of any would day that although the piano is amazing and beautiful it's a little busy. Yeh know what I mean.....build that sh** up til the hook then busy out with that amazinging finger work. Again just an opinion. Great job!

Leave me
Ein sehr schöner Song sehr eingängig die Instrumente guitar und das Piano unterstützen den Gesang absolut super. Ein wunderschöner Track der sehr eingängig ist.Habe das Stück gerne gehört Liebe Grüße G.W.Scott

Leave Me
Musically strong at the start. Maybe a bit 'busy' distracting from the lyrics. In my view the voice needs to sit higher in the track to pull out the lyrics. Very much piano led and musically very competent. I was hoping for a bridge though. Overall good track and interested to listen to it again. Would recommend it.

Feedback
Hi, I just checked out your song, cause you've asked for a review. I think this song deserves a different approach in order for the vocals cq. melody to shine. I can't do what you did on the piano, but the million notes you're playing are distracting from the essence of the song. So I would minimize the piano part and open up for the vocal track, perhaps add some strings. Chorus is simple but catchy. You could also leave more space for the guitar solo.
