I&#8217;d kick drums in at :25.  Bombs flying\/children dying is too cliche.  You&#8217;ve got something on the vocal track&#8211;hard compression\/autotune??  that&#8217;s making it sound a bit weird.  Also I think you could getter a much better vocal take by relaxing in the performance more and don&#8217;t worry about being operatic.  By the middle of the song you&#8217;re wearing me out with too much heavy handed, slow syllable and intense singing.  The tune needs to breathe more and bring more in from the instruments to give it more audio interest.  The pop string parts are too sappy for this tune.  Don&#8217;t take this wrong&#8211;I think this is a really good start on a great tune.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: MGBSong: WOULDN&#8217;T LIFE BE EASY?Reviewer: Jeff RobertsPositive Comments: This could be a Pearl Jam song!
