Re: will this one jump over the country high-bar?
I played it at the mp3 link.I like it a lot. I always make sure I mention again that country is not my genre. What matters is not if it's a very good song, but if it's a great song. That's what will determine if it makes the country high bar. I think it's at least a very good song. (I'm being super-critical in anticipation of the bar.)At the rally, you got to see how Sherrill Blackman listened for killer hooks and other things that make a song stand out. The hook is simple and stays in your head. Big plus! I don't know whether more melodic lift at the chorus is needed but there is a rhythmic change-up at the chorus which does make it stand out some from the verse.All you can do now is submit it and see. It's definitely worth submitting... Good luck!! Casey
I LOVE IT WHEN A PLAN COMES TOGETHER!

Re: will this one jump over the country high-bar?
Great production!Nicely done guys. This song could be a radio song easy.My only gripe is I think the vocal delivery in the chorus could have some more emotion and feeling. The V/C seperation is nice the lift is good but the vocal delivery is a little to relaxed IMO.Thats it. If I dont hear this on the radio next year Im gonna start writin for Celine Deion!!!Devin, Banjo is mixed great to me. Listening on my uber hi-fi audiophile cabinets. Sounds awesome.And hey, better to be panned right than not being panned at all!! M~

Like I said, if they listen that far I think you're safe!I resemble that comment! Just kidding, I like the song no matter which ending you use, Marc
