Positive Comments: Here’s a classic that feels like an 80’s upbeat ballad type tune that has a beautiful nostalgic essence to it that I miss from back in the day that needs to make a come back. Potetic interpretation of the ship in the sea lost, etc…is nice and create a vivid concept, the winter cold and craving to be warm again..LOVE IT! I can feel the confusion of should there be reconciliation or let it go from the hurtful past so strong!
Constructive Comments: While I love the 80’s ballad feels, I can’t help wondering what this track would be like if a lil more guitar was added to it, get a lil more gritty with the chorus and then again vamping out at the end, but giving the smooth contrast during verses to create that contrast with the production thats is spoken about in the lyrics. Also bring up the lead vocal a little more as it was hard to understand just a couple words, but over all nice work that is inspiring and encouraging and very relatable!!
