A new song which yearns back to simpler days before being successful.  Although I haven't yet tasted the fruits of musical success.

Very nice man. Cool, calm, relaxing. If I can mention constructive comments... I'd bring the vocals down and back a bit to give a somewhat haunting feel. Then in the chorus add a vocal harmony. I think that would really tweak this into an even more beautiful gem. Hope you don't mind my thoughts ;D.

I agree. The vox is strong enough to survive some treatment. Breaking it up a tad with a load of reverb would add that nostalgic, haunting sound (just like old the radios before DAB).......

Sounds good as is though......


Great post!

Very nice work. This is a well constructed song and you've recorded it extremely well, the production and general feel is great. Great guitar playing as well, subtle but well done and a nice controlled solo.

A couple of thoughts from me. I'd be tempted to add some more guitar in the chorus to differentiate it a bit more from the verse and to help build it. Vocal harmonies on the chorus would be good as well, as dragonshade suggested. Your pitch on the first "Radio Days" in the first two choruses is a little uncertain, and some backing vox would strengthen the vocal change from the verse. But these are minor, it's still a very well done song.

Cheers,

Nigel

I like this a lot - great performance! A complete song is the toughest thing to do with an MBR, so congrats!

Hope to see more,

Mark

Great job with this song,  fully realized, well played, really great lyrics, that melancholy feeling is deep here.  It sounds very deep.  And really nice atmospheric solo.  It all adds up to a great song.
