Hey Tim, welcome to the boards. Great sound here, although it seemed a little lacking in the low end--kick drum and bass (I'm listening on studio quality headphones). The song sounded balanced in the verse, but the vocal was initially very loud in the chorus, then back in balance with the instruments.I like the guitar break, but felt the vocal got in the way a little in the first few bars.Usually members post the lyric here if they're looking for feedback on that, so that's up to you.Very interesting and unique ending.Vince

Cheers guys,This is really useful stuff, so thank you. I will have a look at the bass issue and get that licked!I completely forgot about the lyrics: Rain On meV1It's rained now for so long,You didn't see me bleed,But hope still grows so strong,Rain was the water for my seed ChorusSo Rain On Me,Now I can believe In life and the better part of me V1The drowning doubts inside Feeding on your fearsSweet apple of your eyeTurns out to be another tear ChorusSo Rain On MeNow I can believe In life and the better part of meCan you see Lifes a dream And we can be free And we can be free Instrumental Chorus x 2

Great stuff Tim, innovative yet commercial.Great arrangement.Great vocs,it's great to hear a singer who draws you in to the vocal,rather that the usual business of,listen to me aren't I great,I can sing 500 notes where the should only be one.Sorry!!!Just my little rant. ; All in all,fantastic.!!! BTW,do you know Karl Brazil,him being a fellow Brummie.
