My opinion?

Definitely the best I've ever seen and heard here.

All the right ingredients are there - vocals, playing, writing, passion and just pure presence. I agree with the comparison to the guy from Staind but unplugged and unprocessed, you are more powerful and controlled. Not to mention versatile. Excellent renditions in different genres ranging from soft pieces to my personal favorite, acoustic hard rock.

Impressive talent.

Thanks for sharing and do some more.

Wow. Very well done on all accounts. Musically it works great. Great partnership between guitar and voice. Very expressive. Lyrically seems consistent and expressive.

The ending may have been a tiny bit too much guitar gymnastics. By then the listener wants the vocal line to sell the deal with one last guitar response of what we've heard before in a concluding fashion. The guitar part rambled a little at the end.


But this is a stellar song. You've got the horses. Go make a million bucks.

Thanks for all the kind words friends! I really appreciate the encouragement, truly.
As for making it, well if it happens, it happens. I live on a tiny 9x5 Island and I play to the same 20 people every gig currently, and anything I can do, they've seen a hundred times by now! That can keep a fella grounded, so it's no bad thing

Thankyou all for your time in listening too, I am truly honoured!
