hi, over all the song seems well written, arranged, etc. the vocal seems to get drowned out at times and if not for the lyrics being there to read i would not be able to understand what you are singing. i realize this is a demo but as the lyrics are well written they should not be hidden under the music but stand above it so they can be appreciated. other than that pretty cool song, hook, music vibe.

dmk, thanks for the valuable feedback. The volume of the vocal in the mix is something my co-writer, Steve (who performed and mixed the song), mentioned...guess we gotta turn it up! Craig p.s. Ronnie Kimball is singing...I wish it was me, though!

A new mix with a louder lead vocal has been uploaded; all comments are welcome and very much appreciated.

Hi, wolff! I took a listen before I read the lyric... and Wow, it sounds great!! Love the music, it sure grabbed me... and the vocal sounds super! Then, I read it to make sure I heard everything right, and I did. Only nit with the vocal is that I wanted to hear more oomph in the last 2 "And baby business is good", or at least the next to last one, then back to normal for the very last one--- the same kind of grit he brought to the end of V2 & V4. Great song! --Jen

Good groove for sure. I listened to this a few days ago and I agree with others on the vocal mix during the chorus. Lyrically, you are not covering (or uncovering -- ha, ha) any new ground here. Fun tune, though.
