There is a lot of variety in the vocal delivery, which adds interest and contrast. The diction is very clear. The lyrics are interesting and amusing, with an unusual take on the seasonal theme. The sleigh bells add character. The chorus melody is catchy and lifts the energy level from the verse. The harmonic structure is simple but effective, and suits the mood of the lyrics exactly.<\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>I think the arrangement could benefit from a little more clarity at times, maybe with some more movement in the accompaniment parts&#8230; maybe there could be some more instrumental riffs interspersed with the pads, in the gaps between vocal phrases, just to add a little more interest (there are a couple near the end, which I like)I think the vocal could do with sitting a little lower in the overall mix or else being blended in a bit more with the backing&#8217;s reverb. It just sounds a little too exposed at times, especially in the intro to the chorus, where the level is higher than in the verse.Nevertheless, this is a great song, I enjoyed listening to it, and wish the artist every success. They know how to construct a well rounded and attractive pop song, with humour and personality. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: larry costaSong: Dancing in the SnowReviewer: rob colleyPositive Comments: The vocals are great with a real engagement, and lots of personality.
