Broadjam Artist: Theopolous
Song: Climbed
Reviewer: Kate Carpenter
Positive Comments: Nice guitar intro. Very good clear vocals in a spiritual song with a biblical message about Moses and David and (inferred) Jesus Christ. Passionately sung. Nice arrangement. Interesting way to end the song, kind of leaves the listener hanging (like Jesus on the cross?)
Constructive Comments: The song might benefit from a third verse. Why not write a verse about Jesus carrying the cross? There seems to be a bit too much repetitiveness of the chorus words “He climbed that hill alone”. Bring the vocal up a bit. It needs to be a bit more “up front”…sounds like it’s too far back/away in the mix. What is the scripture reference for the verse about David, just curious. “In the city in the dark On streets not easy to depart.” This seems awkward. I would work to improve this lyric. Would you say this to someone? Streets not easy to depart?
