The B section has an AWESOME chordal shift. &#8220;Monday is Calling&#8221; is a super cool hook for this song. The lyrics are very conversational and the harmonies are dead-on and beautiful. Guitars are also really well-played without taking over the track.<\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>As much as I like the hook of this song, and think that the song works from a perspective of craft and emotion, I think that the marketability is tough because after the initial verse the performance and production sound more like California Country-tinged rock (ala the Eagles or Little River Band). I am not saying it sounds dated, just incongruous with the modern country flair that was established by the great vocal in the first verse.Great job on this!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Joseph CirelloSong: Monday&#8217;s Calling (country)Reviewer: The Bitter ElegancePositive Comments: The vocalist is GREAT &#8211; compelling tone and very appropriate for country music in 2017.
