Thanks Vince. We've got a couple of tweaks to make, but I'm pretty happy with it for the most part. I'm still not sure about the title. A film/TV guy I know said I should call it "A Guy Like Me" then repeat the first line of the song during the outro as he feels that would make it compelling to film/TV types.Cam

Hi CamI remember this from your worktape. Very nicely done- cool vibe. I still think I hear a bit of Jimmy Buffet in there, that's not a bad thing at all BTW. Great track! The studio did it well! What's your target market for it? I think it's a killer film/TV pitch but I know getting master rights from the studio is expensive. Personally (easy for ME to say) I think it would be worth it here-- upbeat tracks like this with 'vibe' do well and it's obviously high broadcast quality. My gut tells me it would get easily signed.As you know, the odds of an artist placement are thousands of times less than that for a film/TV pitch.Best of luck with it! Casey

Cam,Good song. Sounds a bit 70's to me. It has a very pleasant, listenable vibe to it. I really like the vocal. The production 'seems' very simple and appropriate. It seems like a film/tv song to me .. rather than a song to pitch to artists.Dean

Turned out good Cam.Very well written song.I LIKED YOUR VOICE BETTER ON THIS!!You had a delivery that was on the money for the tune. I hope you get a copy without vocals so you can sing it.I think you should pitch it both to artists and Film/tv.Sure, like Casey said, the chances for film/tv are a thousand times better but the money from an artist cut would be a thousand times more. And a song of this caliber deserves more than sitting in a library hoping to get placed. If you sign it to a library make sure you can still pitch it elsewhere. But theres always the artist "hold" which could stall it somewhere.REVERSION CLAUSE!!! Your getting really good at this bro!Matt

Casey - Thanks. I'm really happy with how Jimi's group handled this one. Actually Jimi is pretty reasonable on getting the master rights. I agree that it probably has film/TV potential so I plan on doing that.Dean and Wig - Thanks for taking the time to comment. Matt - Thanks for the kind words. Good advice on the library placement. If I do go that route I'll try to insist on non-exclusive.Thanks everyone! Now for the hard part... getting someone to listen to the damn thing.Cam

Thanks Derek... not sure what I'll do about that yet. I went round and round about the title, trying "All You Have To Do", which is really what the song is about, but it seemed so blah that I kept coming back to "It's Not Impossible".Cam
