Broadjam Artist: <\/b>Jim Aitken<\/a>
Song: <\/b>One Night Stand<\/a><\/p>\n

Reviewer: <\/b>Peter Boynton<\/a><\/p>\n

Positive Comments: <\/b>There’s a lot that works really well in the song. I think your verse lyrics are especially strong – conversational, and with good imagery. The players, arrangement and production values are all fine. Nice work!<\/p>\n

Constructive Comments: <\/b>-the vocalist is very nice to listen to, and I would have liked to hear her sustain some of the notes more. The vocals felt a bit clipped, and a bit of contrast with longer-held notes would be great- especially in the chorus to offer a change from the verse performance.-the chorus lyric is a bit vague and poetic for me – especially the ‘love’s more precious than poses’ line. It feels like ‘poses’ is just there for a rhyme with ‘roses’. The chorus melody is fine, and I’d consider re-working the lyrics to be more specific. I get that the singer’s not with this man anymore, but why? Did the singer fantasize everything beyond that one night stand, or did they have a relationship that then ended? I don’t get enough story, though the 1st verse sets everything up very nicely.-I think you have very good bones here for an even better song! Nice work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
