I finished this last night. I won't go into details as I think the lyrics are clear enough. Very basic recording with me playing guitars and keys. All vocals are me, old school, no vocal processors or harmonizers. http://www.badbetsy.com/new_original/s/thats_what_dads_doThat’s What Dad’s Do Words / Music: J. Taylor © 2019 Bad Betsy Publishing A.S.C.A.P. Verse 1I held you in my arms Right before your Momma did. I knew that you were special I did everything to keep you from harm. ChorusI’LL BE THERE FOR YOU WHEN YOU’RE SAD OR FEELING BLUE THROUGH THE YEARS AS YOU GREW AND GREW I WAS THERE. CAUSE THAT WHAT DADS DO Verse 2Many times I stood in the dark As you wandered through your life I chimed in when you asked me to Held back tears when you gave up being a wife Repeat Chorus
BridgeIf I could take away all your pain Bring you sun when it’s pouring rain Give you hope and fight your fears Hold you close and dry your tears Key Change : Repeat Chorus

Iggy,
Nice sound right out of the gate, and the vocal engages the ear right off. I really like the harmonies in the chorus, and the additional instrumentation in that second chorus, which adds a nice layer of depth . . . and that flute (I think), sweet. The bridge is killer, lyrically and musically.
If I had a nit, it’s the last chorus . . . I’m not sure, but it just doesn’t hit my ear as pleasantly as the first two—almost as if the harmonies are either a bit off or a bit dark—where I would as a listener, given the subject matter of the song, really want it to be a bit brighter. and “feel good." I’m not sure I’m describing my thought in a way that makes sense, but either way, as they say, use or lose—just offering up what I hope might be helpful feedback.
Regardless, this is a solid effort, with a sweet sentiment, and I enjoyed listening to it. There’s a lot of talent behind this.
My best regards,
Deej
