Wrote this track with Murray Daigle and Jonathan Pike. Its meant to be a pop song but I just wanted to do a stripped down piano version.
Just looking for overall reaction and feel.
Thanks Bob for the feedback - appreciate it. Its funny about consonants - in classical and competition singing I have been taught to enunciate the consonants but most producers I have worked with tell me to soften them to sound more pop. I actually prefer somewhere in the middle. Thanks so much again for talking the time to listen and comment, its appreciated.

I think this is a very nice song, but wish I could see the lyrics, because as a musician I get so distracted listening to your great voice, and cool keyboard playing. So I don’t really know what your song is about, but I love the sound of it, and the music and your voice are captivating.
Great job!

Sounds a bit haunting. Definitely a song that could do well stripped down like this or with more elaborate production. It is very suspenseful. Your vocals are so beautiful, I had to listen twice. It could easily be placed in a dramatic/romantic film.

1) You have a pleasing voice and 2) your vocal intonation is pretty solid—enunciation if problematic (your vowels sound good, but initial and final consonants in words get somewhat lost, so it makes it more difficult to make out your lyrics)—wish you had included the lyrics with your song. Piano part is a little “pedestrian” (chords a little common and formulaic). But you 1) LOOK GOOD, and 2) YOUR VOICE IS PLEASING (you SOUND good)—and those two qualities will help to make up for any small shortcomings. Best wishes in all your musical endeavors (and sorry if I seemed to come down a little bit too “harsh” on your song—“harshness” wasn’t my aim, but simply honest feedback, and I hope things DO go well with your songwriting)!!!
