Lyrics

IT'S BEEN A WHILE

V1) You say you love me and that we should stay together well I think that's nice but are you certain you want it the rest of your life???
You say you're ready to throw away everything
and you don't think twice
what can I tell you you're already in mid-dive

CHORUS: YEH I KNOW IT'S BEEN A WHILE
SINCE IT FELT SO NICE WOH-OH, WOH-OH
GOTTA HOPE IT STAYS A WHILE
MORE THAN JUST ONE NIGHT

V2) Sometimes I wonder why people are always crying
all about their lives
and how the grass is so good on the other side

You say you want it-you gotta get out and get it
and you don't think twice
cos if you hesitate boy you're bound to be late for the bus

CHORUS: YEH I KNOW IT'S BEEN A WHILE
SINCE IT FELT SO NICE WOH-OH WOH-OH
GOTTA HOPE IT STAYS A WHILE
MORE THAN JUST ONE NIGHT

BRIDGE: baby I know we've both been through our wars
breaking windows and kicking down the doors
(but) maybe we've got something worth fighting for

V3) You say you're ready to throw away everything
and you don't think twice
what can I tell you-you're already in mid-dive

CHORUS: YEH I KNOW IT'S BEEN A WHILE
SINCE IT FELT SO NICE WOH-OH WOH-OH
GOTTA HOPE IT STAYS A WHILE
MORE THAN JUST ONE NIGHT

YEH I KNOW IT'S BEEN A WHILE
SINCE IT FELT SO RIGHT
GOTTA HOPE IT STAYS A WHILE
MORE THAN JUST ONE NIGHT YEH-AH-AH-AH-AH

Good temporary-feeling sound with a good steady beat and really cool accompaniment. Instrumentation and vocals both are solid.

I like the structure playing between the pre and a'A" part..

I like how the song begins. I like the instrumentation and how the song builds to the hook. I like the quiet all the way to loud. I like your instrumentation. Your vocals are great.

I really like the lead vocals, very unique sound. Very cool sounding drums and rhythm guitar. Very good lyrics as well.

This song took me on a journey as I listened to it. It crosses genres quite seemlessly. It's got some nice '80s synths and drums going on. I think there's some 808s in there? Hard to tell. It has a little bit of a Gin Blossoms-feel to it. I would love to hear more from you guys. I love your style. Keep up the good work.

This song is way cool! This is definitely ready for tv/film. I can see this supporting a lot of different scenes or even ending credits. Instrumentation is great! Mix is nice too for the genre. Vocalist is perfect for the song. Sounds like a working band for sure! Very well done! Just awesome! Changes are great and dynamics build - very refreshing.

pretty good song .. its just got that feel about it that keeps you hooked on...

I've heard this voice before, nice!! It's a good song, with a good hook and a nice melody. The backing vocals are also verry nice, so overall I like the song verry much.

Loved the acapella start, which gives the impression of a soft melody, and the listener is pleasantly surprised by the explosion of rock music, which takes this song to a different level. The artist executes his performance with all the nuances of the melody - first soft and gentle, then he breaks out to accomplish new heights along with the words and music.

I'm in. Whenever another artist can inspire me to get off my @$$ and produce something equally inspiring... It says something. Often I browse these reviews. They are filled with passionate, skilled, and occasionally finally polished productions. Its rare that I get all three qualities in a single production though. Very nice. Bravo.

This is a very engaging song, well produced and very enjoyable to the ears. I really like the dynamic changes from verse to chorus. You have a great mixture of indie singer songwriter into a rock chorus. Your vocals are interesting and enjoyable. The instrumentation is outstanding.

pretty good hook...and i like the vocal. i like the edgy pop feel.

I loved your raspy voice; good arrangement.

Great song, it's stuck in my head....that's a good thing. This could be a hit single!

Really nice commercial tune. Instrumentation works well...nice start at the 0:23 to lay foundation for the hook at the 0:42. Vocals are clear and clean and...very understandable -:) Musicianship is very tight.

Vocal ok
Nice touch with TR808ish beats on verses and drums in chorus, well done
