CONTEMPORARY, HEARTFELT, COUNTRY BALLADS
I was pleased to receive a forward for this listing. "CONTEMPORARY, HEARTFELT, COUNTRY BALLADS with a timeless quality are needed by a Major Producer developing a new, up and coming female Country artist. He's searching for songs that would be heard on the same playlist as "To Make You Feel My Love" by Trisha Yearwood, "Carrying Your Love With Me" By George Strait, "From This Moment" by Shania Twain, etc. Quoting the source: "This girl has a great voice, and we're really looking for that big hit that'll take her to the top. Songs with major key tonality and a good dose of acoustic guitar picking are exactly what we need." He's willing to listen to fully produced songs OR acoustic demos with male or female vocals. Your lyrics need to be universal enough that they will translate easily when sung by a female. Your demo quality should be competitive with songs that are being pitched on Music Row."
Comments from TAXI: TAXI's comments on the song: "A Paycheck Away" reminds me so much of Kenny Chesney. Your rhyme schemes are perfect. Your structure is Contemporary. Your concept is relatable and has the ability to be extremely marketable. It would be interesting to see if a female vocalist could execute the message in the same way. I will forward today. Keep up the brilliant work!"

Congrats!
It's a beautiful song. Right up there with the best. Everyone knows how high that bar is, so it is good to see that someone's reached it
Also, a lot of people can relate to happiness being just a pay check away. Great premise.
All the best
Tom

Thank you Tom. I see that you're Canadian too. I'm on the west coast...by Vancouver. I love your song, "It's a Beautiful Life". I can hear why it keeps getting forwarded.
