Play This One Loud!
Overall, this is the 4th song I have reviewed for the New Jersey outfit ‘Zap & The Wires,’ and this song, “The Only Heart I’ll Ever Miss,” is the first bonafide ballad I have heard from the very talented group. The song opens with a very gentle approach with some interesting keyboards and light percussion. The song quickly transcends from a ballad to a dance ballad, reminding me very much of Irene Cara’s ‘Flashdance’ and that song’s opening structure. Once the songs picks up speed we are introduced to the chorus and a multi-tracked vocal. The female vocal in this song is very strong, and uses very little effects. There is a very nice build up from the verses to the chorus. The bridge is very cool and spacey, and the entire song features very well written lyrics which are also quite well sung. The song fills it’s run time of 5:08 very well, and it never feels too long. Just before the conclusion of the song there is a very nifty instrumental piece before a very solid ending. I think most groups I’ve reviewed here before know that I don't like a fade-out finish, because it’s lame and a cop-out. I like a very solid and clean finish, something that shows the originality of this band, and Zap & The Wires don’t disappoint at all. Although this song is a ballad, it’s one of those tunes you’ll want to play LOUD to hear everything that is going on. This is a very subtle song, and you’ll think there’s not much going on, when in fact there is a whole lot going on during the runtime. Zap & The Wires are a very talented group of musicians who make fantastic music the good old fashioned electronic way. Play this song often, and play it LOUD!

Nice Beat and Vocals
Great opening and timely vocals right out of Nashville. Perfect hook and powerful vibrations tell a sad story of meeting, love and heartbreak in a dramatic style that sounds like it's coming right out of your radio. Well done and tremendous talents here!

Appealing
If first impressions mean anything then I am impressed with the quality of song structure this song has throughout upon giving it a listen.The vocals are top shelf and immediately conjure up gwen stefani and no doubt vibes very strongly.The backing instrumentals are very tight and do not overpower or over take the song yet support it in a strong supporting way.A nice pop ditty with excellent production with plenty of radio playability.Very easy to listen to and digest.While the song doesn't break down any musical barriers it is most pleasing and an easy listen...well done

Good music
This is a incredible track I love it. I love the harmonies and the instruments that are playing in it. And the faint of the music harmonizing is relaxing & upbeat. You should keep doing these kind of tracks because they will take you very far to wherever you’re going. I would love to have this track and use it for one of my songs in the future hopefully. Let me know if you’re interested in that. Keep up the great work.

Hi
Hi,If someone thinks that love and peace is a cliche that must have been left behind in the Sixties, that's his problem. Love and peace are eternal. We look forward to the time when the Power of Love will replace the Love of Power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace.Wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving.Thanks and good luck!

Melting Pot of Sounds
The vocals on this song are amazing!!! I love the transition of the track where it goes into a Pop/Dubstep/Dance feel. I love the harmonies in this song. The song gives a plethora of sounds, the vocalist gives a country feel on top of the track which is a melting pot of sounds. Awesome job on the song and I do have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this song and I look forward to hearing more music from Zap & The Wires!!!! I am definitely a fan!!!

beautiful chord changes
exciting harmony sequence, full of surprise and emotion, beautiful female voice merges with syntesizer and rhythm section. Dynamic arrangement fits in with the chord changes. Overall a great song that you can and should listen to more than once.

Exceptional Music Style
This song has an extraordinary syncopated beat, if you listen precisely. The arrangement characterizes complex digital effects of midi generated sounds. The lyrics coming from the heart and the unique vocals including imaginative transitions from stanza to the chorus making the song lively and creative. Well orchestrated versatile electronical sounds carry the recording. This extra factor brings increasing feel into the music. Overall creative recording and unique quintessence of country and pop music. I´m sure, you will like to add it. Let others know your recommendation.

Smooth Pop & great vocal
Hi guys, great vocals, and kudos on the work gone into vocal production and choiring. The music is good, but the drum programming for me is the weak spot. Kick and snare (needs more power for me). The mixing is good. Overall it could be great with more attention to details in the sound choice, and production elements. Love the song!

Never Miss Out on Zap!
One of the things I enjoy most about Number One Music artists is the newfound ability to hear music from around the world by singers who I'd never have the chance to listen to otherwise. That, in itself, is a great thing. Here, with this song with a Miley twang from the lead singer, combined with an early 80's synth pop vibe - combines for a unique expression from Zap and The Wires on yet another new effort. Nicely done!

Melodious Song With Modern Pop Arrangement
For me a mix of genres. The composition sounds like singer-songwriter, the arrangement more electronic dance pop. Yes, interesting. Can't understand the genre Reggae. Anyway I like it. Most songwriters of rock and pop music hold classical composers in high regard for their seemingly effortless ability to conjure up melodies that are memorable and powerful. So it's no surprise that Zap & The Wires have made use of some of the more familiar pieces of classical songwriting - I mean it positive, not meaning old school songwriting - that (specially young) listeners can relate to even if they don't know the base / inspiration of the music.

nice Voice
hello, I like the Vocals very much, good melody... but the "Drumproduktion" is a bit strange to me, I think its not the style for these kind of Vocals... the Drums should not sound like a "technobeat", it`a bit sad about the other music instrument sounds ok to me. So take care and go on with your stuff...
