HI Rodney,
Thanks for the constructive feedback. I too thought that a guitar would have been far better than the keyboard solo and that is what I asked for but was pleased with the production generally.

Great song Barry, deserves more fans and I love the production of this song. Guitar solo was fantastic and the pinch harmonics at the end of the solo. Keep up the good work. ![]()

Good job! Musically, I think it is well performed and produced. The thing that stood out to me as a potential improvement was the keyboard solo. It sounds a little buried in the mix. Another thought was that it came out of no where. The song seems more guitar driven with the keys laying down a subtle bed, but then jumps out into the lead. As a listener, it left me thinking,“Where did that come from?”. Maybe a guitar solo would make it flow better?
Another thought was that there are no pauses lyrically outside of the keyboard solo. Even on the second and third listen I had trouble trying to soak in the lyrics. Not that I’m a great lyricist, but it feels like there is too much to say. Perhaps some editing would buy some space to steep in the emotion of the lyrics vs listening to the message?
