Broadjam Artist: Fred Kimmel
Song: The Clock Burned Down
Reviewer: David James
Positive Comments: I love the string intro. Great change to the stripped back instrumentation for the verse at 0.15. Beautiful brass element at 1.35. Inventive bridge at 2.15. All round exceptional instrumentation and arrangement. Strong committed vocal performance. The song builds nicely and keeps the listener hooked from start to finish. The song is very catchy…worthy of Elton John or Electric Light Orchestra.
Constructive Comments: This is a really great song. The only change I would make would be to end the song at 3.15, because that feels like the natural ending. I wrote above that this song is worthy of Elton John. In hindsight it’s stronger than most of his songs in my opinion.
