Here and Now!
Here and Now by the Abbeystills is a refreshing take on a nostalgic vibe from a time in history when music was at its best. The music of the 80s has charted the course of music. Here and now has a vibe like a song by Foreigner. The vocals are well placed in the mix and the words are clear. This is definitely a song you can listen to with that special someone.

Here and Now
A very pleasing effort with some very tasty chorus changes..vocals are on point and overall sound has a sinead O'Conner vibe to it.The melody is interesting in that it straddles brooding and joy at times sharing the same moment.The production and recording sounds polished and well done

Here and Now review. this song is a strictly Pop piece in the highest sense of the word. everything sounds in Pop style as I said everything recalls the Pop genre. personally it is not my favorite genre but I can give you a musical judgment that is certainly positive because all that there must be in a Pop piece in your piece is therefore complimented and continues. good job

It’s not the first time that I gonna review this song, but I really like it! This is one more amazing production for a very cheerful song, with a contagious rhythm that impels us to dance. I think it's really a song that should be in the top of Pop music of Number One Music. I also really liked the other themes available on the page, like I said before. I think is on the right way, and in terms of music production is really, really well done and I have to congratulate you on it again. I'm waiting for new themes, with the same quality. Best wishes !! Take a listen to my newest song "Crossing These Bridges" too, please! Thanks JB

Here and Now Review
Love the beat and how things start out. Then your lead vocal starts and we lose the mood. More time needs to be put into the lead vocal and your connection to the track, to the lyrics. The harmonies and chorus are good and help things a bit but the verses I STRONGLY suggest redoing them. It's a good song. Put more time into the vocal.

The Piano is groves but the vocal is weak need a stronger Singer and the song will be a hit. I love the musical instruments. sound like Carol King type of beat maybe in late 70's I will give it three stars need more work

Their is something about this song That has me going back for more . It’s strange With a good vibe for the listener not looking for the norm But with a presentable track with some substance and catchy idea , I could listen to this again . For a song writers perspective, you can tell this song wasn’t just thrown together, from the music to the lyrics to the few vocal harmonies chosen . They are on too something Hopefully they continue

Buena
Buena canción, bien interpretada tanto vocal como instrumental. Buena melodía y bonitos coros. La grabación es bastante buena, todos los instrumentos suenan en su volumen correcto y la mezcla, sobre todo de voces, es muy buena. Good song, well performed both vocal and instrumental. Good melody and beautiful choirs. The recording is quite good, all the instruments sound in their correct volume and the mix, especially of voices, is very good.

finally, a well done song, great production, a pop song with some tasteful bass playing and drum track, a wide sonic expanse, tasteful piano playing, a guitar that underscores the dynamics of the track, and some fine harmonizing of the voices. congrats, really well done.

Hi
I like Your song I just wish You put more Energy in to the Vocal and use Piano much more ( after all Piano and Rainbow go Together )..if I be You I will make 2 versions of the song one for a Radio Play ( app 3.5 min long max) and the other for life Performances now the problem is How Big People in The Music Bizz will react .. Try to send to some Radio Stations and let's see what They will say as a Music Publishers.. who know what They are Looking for for This Moment but remember that They are looking for Fantastic Songs and Great Quality Recording.. I wish You good luck.. Good Job...

Here is Now
I appreciate indie music because it allows artists to express who they are without the corporate muddling that tends to squash creativity. This song is an example of what great coffee house music sounds like without a lot of interference. The vocals blend nicely. I'm not a fan of the "harmony" portion of this, however. Mixed well and produced with care this is a song I would listen to on my iPad.

Mellow Tune
I kind of liked it. Sounds like something you'd hear playing while the movie credits are rolling. The lead singer has a pleasant voice but it does warble a bit when trying to hit and hold some notes. I personally think it needs some guitar hooks and something to break it up, maybe a catchy chorus.

Awesome harms; overall very good song
First of all, nice song. :) I enjoyed the melody and the instrumentals. Some suggestions... 1) The volume of the vocals seems a bit low. Maybe turn them up in the mix or create more space for them in the mix with EQ or other tricks. 2) Although I didn't notice any plosives, some of the hard consonant sounds, especially at the beginning, were kind of on the loud/harsh side. I'd recommend upgrading your pop filter/windscreen, if possible. Finally: 3) I notice that the song is a little longer than five minutes. I've heard that "radio ready" is considered to be between three and five minutes. So you may want to consider cutting down the length just a tad. (Maybe have the vocal entrance right away?) OH, and btw the harmonies are very well done! Nice to hear something more interesting than just thirds ;)

I would love to have heard the 1rst vers more settled in allowing the 2nd verse to be taken up a slight notch... GOOD JOB Guys/Gals... Thx for sharing !!! All the best, Tony DuPuis

Sophisticated Popsong
A popsong with important message. Valentina can sing with very dynamic vocal projection and Graham surpasses himself with the lyrics as songwriter. He is obviously a person with much worldly experience and knowledge of problems and culture. The lyrics comes from the heart and touches the soul. Really engaged story to give perception of situations. The refrain has a wise message what´s really matters and makes the meaning of the song engaging for me. But the whole composition is more various. The inro of the piano makes the song rich and brings the listener in the chorus on the next level. Great keyboard sounds from the musicians creating a great space in the backround. The accompaning e-guitar brings additionally beauty into the song. Remarkable and professionell mixed and mastered from Gordon and overall a beautiful arrangement of contemporary music. This song must be a radio hit and it´s an original. Listen to the song and I´m sure, you will like to add it. Let others know your recommendation.

A pleasant performance to hear
Hello! I have listened to many of your compositions; I like your style, airy and solid. This composition seems to me a little less sought in its harmonies, its general conception. But it's still nice to listen to. The recording is always of good quality, with good bass well present. I would have liked a passage with an instrument solise (guitar for example) which would have aired the composition. Good... I may be a little difficult, right? Once again it's a good job!
Great intro.
Musically the intro on this song is brilliant and has a bit of a 90's sound. Lyrics and vocals are good and sounds a bit like some of the songs from the 80's. These combinations work very well together.
