Broadjam Artist: Ante Novaselic
Song: DREAMS
Reviewer: John Walradt
Positive Comments: Get up and get it on! This alarm clock rocker is like a Bryan Adams/Richard Marx composition with a terrific female vocalist who can enunciate clearly within driving electric guitars. This could fit in tv placements wanting current pop rock songs with a message about getting on with life.
Constructive Comments: This is a very good song well mixed and mastered. Any constructive comments would be nothing more than personal taste at this point. My own quirk would be to experiment with extra guitar notes to fade out at the very end. About the hook (melody) and originality…the melody is very good by anyone’s standards. It may not be a “California Dreamin'” or “Stairway to Heaven” which would make it stand out as unique (I’ll lay odds you’re capable of it!) but it’s above much of what I hear and is still terrific. Originality…it says things similar to other motivational songs but still lyrically excellent. I can still listen to this and pick it out from other songs. That’s pretty darn picky, though. Overall, it’s excellent.
