Positive Comments: It reminded me of the Spy Who Shagged Me and The Goodbye Girl. It’s not bubblegum, but I wouldn’t quite describe it as rock, either. I’d probably go with 60s party pop. The very first thing that popped into my head was To Sir With Love, but that wasn’t quite right. The Kinks popped into my mind next, so maybe the Kinks meet the Dave Clark Five, Herman’s Hermits and the Monkees, and a bit of Bread, but more modern. It made me smile right away. That’s unusual.
Constructive Comments: I’m not sure what I’d say here. Honestly, at some point I just like something. I had to listen several times to find anything to to suggest, but: – A glass, a book, a what? ~1:05. That’s hard to hear. – I didn’t like the sustained tone at the end. Don’t know why. It just irritated me. Maybe longer & without the abrupt end.That’s it. Good song. Good production. Well-engineered. Solid harmony.
