Tracy,

Very nice sound, good singing and all the instrumentation seems very well done. Might be a little over compressed, though -- everything seems so loud.

What kind of review are you looking for? Is there a target market/audience you are seeking? Are you the artist/performer at all times or are you looking to have others perform your stuff (or are you just having fun!)?

Lyrically, you have some interesting images, details and metaphors -- but there is not a real "story", per se. That doesn't mean it is bad or wrong, or maybe there is a story in there for you.
"blood is thicker than water" -- this usually means family is involved here. Is the person who lost her father and mother a relative or just a friend? Since you have implied a blood relative, maybe her (or his) relationship to you would be helpful.

Anyway, it is a great little first tune to post here and welcome to the JPF!! You definitely have a more complete, professional sound than most of us around here -- so you feel free to stick around!

Kevin
