Hi guys.
Was messing about in the studio and nothing was happening.
One of those nights when nothing bites.
I ran through a couple of drum beats and this one just kick started the full process.
Just Goes to show if you hang about long enough something floats to the surface.
Hope you like it.

You're risking everything with what you're searching for
That's not the way to live .
What are you looking for?
You try to make it happen
,try to carve it out
Try and mould it all
to your dream.

But it's a long way down ,
the gutters not sweet
And There's a chance  you'll loss control

But that destination
You won't find
Your always chasing rainbows 🌈
You only segregate your heart and mind
Your always chasing rainbows 🌈

And every single dice you roll
Is not enough
You're holding out for that 6
You always want to run
It's time you took a walk

But that destination
You won't find
Your always chasing rainbows 🌈
You only segregate your heart and mind
Your always chasing rainbows 🌈

But it's a long way down ,
the gutters not sweet
And There's a chance  you'll loss control
But that destination
You won't find
Your always chasing rainbows 🌈
You only segregate your heart and mindYour always chasing rainbows 🌈

Life is not about the number of Breathes you take, it is the amount of times your breathe is taken away

a rhythm that works makes it all work and flow... this starts out so nice... like some of the great pop rock hits of the 80's like "Missing You" from John Waite and maybe a hundred other examples... but they were popular for a reason... this sure enough works... heavy enough for many rockers and ballad enough to mesmerize the others...
a very nice and well crafted song with a lot of bang for the buck...
your voice fits this style perfect imo... the keys sound nice..
bet there is a banging lead in store too...

Loving the 80s feel and your vocal work is stellar.

Good song, its got an 80's pop rock feel.

There are some great layers built up with the guitars and keyboard sounds.
