The lyric is well written. The singer has a smooth voice and always in tune. The instrumentation is nice. The recording is nice and clean, all instruments are properly balanced with the vocal in front. This is a song that subtly says that you have to keep on keeping on through the rough and trying times.<\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>This song is so nice that what I have to point out may seem a little nit picky &#8211; but there are no major things. In the first verse there is a mix of points of view. &#8220;..I can&#8217;t explain..&#8221;, &#8220;..we&#8217;re never shown&#8221;. &#8220;..You fall in love..&#8221;, &#8220;..I don&#8217;t let it break my heart&#8221;. The points of view should be consistent so as not to confuse the listener. Also, I hate to say it, but the rhyme of heart\/apart is ..ah.. really well used. In verse two there is a mixture of tenses. Keeping tenses uniform is another way to make the song tight. &#8220;Sometimes it WILL all work out, sometimes it won&#8217;t.&#8221; Also there is another instance of points of view &#8211; &#8220;..we&#8217;ve got to learn&#8221;, &#8220;..your fingers burned&#8221;. These are small items in the big scheme, but they are important to the cohesiveness of any song. To make a song lyric tight, keep the points of view and tenses consistent. This helps to guide the listener through your song and not confuse him\/her.This is a lovely song overall and I would like to hear more of your music.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Bob BentleySong: Rolling OnReviewer: Phil BouldryPositive Comments: This is a pretty, smooth, country song all the way.
