Reviewer: Jeff Roberts
Positive Comments: Of course this is Lawrence. Very original tune and good lyrics. I particularly like the keys in this one, and the pad/swells on the dropouts sound really cool. It’s a treat to hear another tune from LW, and this one is cool.
Constructive Comments: First off you know I’m a fan. The guitar lead tone is anachronistic–it doesn’t sound like the period you’re singing about–it’s too overdriven and gritty–it’s Steve Vai when the tune is about Page/Bolan etc. I do like the 2nd lead part that comes but the tone is too harsh. Why not drop the lofi vocals–it’s almost like a mask that you hide behind. Sing it straight out one time!
