Song: Back To Yesterday
Reviewer: Michael Porter
Positive Comments: I think the singer has a fine voice. He is very warm and friendly – with just a touch of sadness in his vocal performance- as is appropriate for the song. It is subtle – which is should be. Plus the arrangement is very good and again – fits the mood of a love lost.I have listened to the song twice now.
Constructive Comments: The lyrics need some work. The first section of the first verse is fine as it sets the pattern. And it starts with “Back” which foreshadows the hook BUT in the second section of the first verse you need to avoid using words that will appear in the chorus i.e. “yesterday” and “back.” Your hook is “Back in Time” so save that word for the hook line! And you end the chorus with “yesterday.” After the first chorus, that next section is fine but THEN you repeat the chorus and in the next verse you basically say the same thing again. You don’t need that third verse. My favorite line is “…etched in stone” I suggest verse 1, chorus, verse 2, chorus, a bridge and chorus.
