Great guitar work. Did you record  this as you sang and played? I liked the beginning, as you added a second guitar. I loved the pictures you painted with the lyrics, although they seemed to wander a bit&#8230;.writing a good angel song, is tough, but you did a great job and are on to something.<\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>So, I just want to give you some constructive thoughts about how to make this song better. The vocals are a bit pitchy, that is why I asked if you sang and played as you recorded this song. If possible, it always better to split them into different tracks so you can make adjustments later. Using a digital DAW program is it easy to fix sections.I love the simplicity of the song, but was hoping for the song to add a few other instruments to help build it. As the second verse kicks it, it would have been nice to add a simple drum track and bass&#8230;and as second chorus kicks in add some strings and maybe a simple vocal choir track and also add some backing vocals&#8230;..This is really an inspiring song and deserves some tweeps.Finally, I&#8217;ll suggest you go over the lyrics and clean up and simply them, so there is a bit more space between the lines&#8230;.they seem a bit rushed in a coulee places&#8230;.Anyway, REALLY nice song and I hope you find my thoughts as something to ponder. I&#8217;d make a vocal-guitar track like this one and one that has more instrumentation and embellishments.Thanks for sharing&#8230;.best of luck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Steve Dafoe &#8211; SongwriterSong: My Angel (Folk, Country &#8211; Alternative)Reviewer: Chet NicholsPositive Comments: A sweet, sweet, song with a great tale embedded in it.
