Broadjam Artist: Ellen Hayes
Song: MY Friend
Reviewer: Kate Carpenter
Positive Comments: Here’s a really pretty song about an intimate relationship with Jesus, praising and extolling Him for being the artist’s friend. The high point/very best song of this is the soulful vocal which truly expresses love for Jesus. Man this lady can SING! I love the key change and the emotional build. My favorite rhyme: way/okay. Also like the summer breezes and angels lyric. Beautiful background vocals. Great mix and production. Nice job!
Constructive Comments: Work on fresher, more original rhymes. friend/end/depend Night/all right. Those space-shipppy percussive sound effects (not sure what to call them) during the intro detracted from the song. “They wasn’t there for me” – grammatically incorrect. They weren’t there for me would fit just fine and not detract from the song. He’s the only one I can depend. Another grammatical problem. Depend ON. How do you embrace His touch? That seems like a strange lyric. Sorry I’m so picky!
