Laureine,

I like the premise of this song (we are all The Same.) Encouraging, unique, uplifting and right on.
I also like "sound" of this song, it's unique and different. A very tasteful sound selection that complement the singer perfectly. The arrangement is outstanding as well. The vocal performance is stellar with excellent phrasing and pitch. She has the delivery of Corinne Bailey Ray, the feel of Adele and the taste of Sade and at the same time, is very unique and stylistic. Fantastic job. I would love to hear more of your stuff and I could see a label doing back flips to get you signed. Kudos to the producer and arranger as they delivered a world-class, broadcast ready product. Also kudos to the engineer who recorded the voice. Perfect mic selection and eq. Excellent work.

The opening string line, which I love the intervals and sound, moves from the major to the minor 6th with a passing note on the major 7th. If this was my song, I would lose the major 7th as it references a common pattern from the old "doo-wop" songs and tugs on the quality of the arrangement.

This has the potential to be a perfect lyric for this voice, melody and production, but it's not quite there. I think the premise gets a little lost and more lyric development would be helpful. It appears as if this was a poem translated to a lyric. "Woooo the world is going down" and "woooo it's written in the sky" are the opening lines and don't connect to the rest of the lyric. The opening line is critical and needs to set up the song. Also note that both lines move down the scale and this is the only place in the song that I feel the singer might be a little vulnerable with pitch. Although I love her tone, especially on the word "down", these lines could be removed altogether..... It also moves in and out of first person. Maybe if the chorus was a different set of voices singing the harmonies, rather than the singer, it might work more effectively.....The vocal performance and the production make the lyric better, but not memorable.

At 2:37 the word "same" comes in on a note that is in the piano chord that follows it. I would pause and land them together as it is a little bumpy at that point. This is not something that needs to be changed immediately, but only if you take another pass at it.

I have a tendency to pick apart the songs that move me. This is the case here as its creative and one of the most unique pop songs I've heard in a while. After reading what I just wrote and listening to this over and over again, I have the inclination to delete everything I said and just "shut up." But I don't think it's what the writer asked for.....A little more development of the lyric and I think there is a big winner here.

Great job and please let me know when you upload another song. This one is in my Pop playlist.

Thanks for this.
Hope this helps! Best of luck.

Roy

Roy, Thank you so much for the opinion and definitely we will let you know of our next production. Laureine is 14 yrs old and this is her first recorded song. I am sure she will get better as time passes...

EPC, Amazing that she is only 14. This is phenomenal for someone that age. Great work and she is definitely on her way. It's just a matter of time. Best of luck, Roy
