Good mood setter! This could be a great pitch for licensing opportunities. I could hear this in the background of any number of scenes in a movie or tv show...urban bar setting, etc.

Did you like specific instrumental parts-somewhat--I loved the guitar.
I wanted this song to take me on a musical journey..
1) Does my intro make you want to hear the song? yes 2) Does my opening notes draw you in and make you want to hear more? Yes 3) Is my melody interesting? Yes 4) Does my melody get stuck in your head? yes 5) Does my music stand out and take the song to a higher place? yes

the vocals are awesome. the mood is captivating, smokey, sultry. At first I was waiting for actual lyrics, and by the end, I still couldn't tell if there were any, but it kind of didn't matter because the vocal quality was great and I was entranced! The background guitar, drums, bass were all great, full of reverb and atmosphere. I loved it.
