The story begs the question&#8230;why the silence?  Lovely vocal performance, especially pleasing in the higher range.  Sweet instrumentation. Melody marries with lyrics nicely.  Silence theme is consistent throughout.  <\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>The song leaves me with the question:  What is the silence of the heart all about?  Has the relationship cooled?  Is she mentally ill, not &#8220;there&#8221; for him any more? Are they not really communicating anymore? I couldn&#8217;t quite figure it out.  The recording start is &#8220;rough&#8221; in that the first note heard doesn&#8217;t sound like it was eased in.  Might be a file transmission problem.  Song is probably a bit long&#8230;you might shorten the intro a little bit.  As far as the lyrics, although there are some great word pictures (sirens blaring, baby crying), try for a more cohesive, understandable story.  Just my two cents!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Jeff AshbakerSong: Silence Of My HeartReviewer: Kate CarpenterPositive Comments: Here is an interesting song with an interesting approach to a (marriage?) relationship highlighting the silence of the husband&#8217;s heart.
