It seemed almost too big, too spiritual for the sort of music this listing is asking for, but I LOVED this one (on this, my first listen).Ted

Might want to bring the vox up a tiny notch since songwriting is the aim here, let them hear the words. Wild playing there, Ponch. Call me crazy but there's a flavour of Aerosmith in this.There's something about the chorus that's bugging me a bit. Not sure if I can put my finger on it. I wonder if it's the intervals & how the voice negotiates them. I'd suggest singing 'I believe in higher love, something more that we can (go up) dream of...' also, I suggest you change the last "I believe, I believe" to a soaring "I belieeeeeeeeve". That's what I long to hear. Of course I know this is 'only a demo' but...It's definitely got the "Gypsy Van" touch - great work guys.Hummin'bird PS - Aub, I sent you an email.
