Hey Jamie,first of all, although a simple chain, it is first class. I love this microphone and it is the best mic I have found under 300 bucks.Your voice is wonderful. I love the way it works in the song.I agree with others here in regards to the song not being right for the listings you mentioned, but this song will find a home.I would submit to some of the singer-songwriter listings for sure.Best,Cisko

Wow, I love this piece! Great job using ambience and panning to paint a huge soundscape. The vox remind me of an old Australian band; "Men at Work"; but the tune/arrangement is way cooler than their stuff. This song will find a home.My only nit, and I had to listen hard to find one: some of the choruses feel a little piled up in the low mids to me. I think the distorted guitar might be taking up a bit too much space.Great track! Let me know when the CD is available.

This production is great. I'm gonna also ditto the country remarks. So far this mic seems like a winner, wish i had picked one up $87!

Nice tune Jamie.I think this could be a crossover. Pop, Country etc. In its current form its definatley AAA.John Mayer-ish.Cant wait to hear it with some tweeks.M~

I just posted an update on soundclick at the above link.I changed a few of the verse melody parts, added some new riffs, and tried to tighten up a few things in the mix. Any and all feedback is appreciated. Few specifics i have are:Does the lead vox sit right through your speakers?Would you consider this AAA, Singer/songwriter, something else?Any freqs or mix issues stick out?Thanks, Jamie
