IMO one or the other needs to challenge the listener a bit more. It's not bad. But it's not great either. All the rhymes in the chorus are crying out for something really clever in the arrangement, and I really didn't get that. Historically, setting the tesitura of the chorus higher than the verses is a classic way of differentiating the C from the V. This doesn't have that. It's a really good start IMO, but both the lyrics and the music need to challenge the listener a bit more. Sorry, Peace, Ian Soundclick http://www.soundclick.com/ianferrin Soundclick2 http://www.soundclick.com/ianferrininstrumentals 'Hammers don't build houses.
