Say....this isn't Tina Turner is it?? Wowza...what a Great Voice, and a very nice arrangement........like the rain!!!
I don't listen to Rap, so it is hard for me to comment on the latter portion of the composition, but the sentiment in the song is truly heart felt and honest!! All extremely convincing and believable....and that is what Great Music is all about!! Keep up the wonderful work and let's hear more.........

Way to go Melvin. You have got it down. when you get down south here, stop by and record some of this groovy stuff with me.

You have a very soothing voice. This song was sang very well.Very nice song.

Love the tone of her voice. The arrangement is very dreamy. The background atmosphere of urban life/rain/children is very cool. It takes you to a very peaceful place. The lyrics are very touching. The rap verse is heartfelt and well delivered. Love the chord proggression

Talented vocals. Good intonation. Clear lyrics. Nice story being told. Somewhat catchy tune. Nice fluid relaxing voice. She has a great voice, show it off and let out the emotions.

I Really like the lyrical content by both artist!

I really like the vocals, they sound very professional - I liked the message as well.

I love the message of the song. I like the changes from the opening female vocal section to the male rap middle section, and then back to a repetitive female vocal. The repetitive 3 note motif throughout the song gives it a haunting, hypnotic quality. This is extremely powerful as it continues in the rap section.

Great track!!!! Great Vocals!!!! Great Lyrics!!! I love it all. Your voice is amazing and it rally does shine through on this track.


I chose to do a random review just to get out of my own comfort zone. I'm not a regular listener to this type of music, so I don't know the exact genre it would fall under. My best guess is R&B.

As for the song itself, I thought it was very well done. Your vocals are clean, clear, and in tune. The music is solid, well produced, and unique.

This is so close to a 5 that it just must be a 5 ven thought the average does not show it. This beat is so captivating. I love the vocalist, and then the "rap comes in at a perfect time, and guess what I can understand every word he says. This is important, and we need a lot of and more of these kinds of songs and performances. I really like it. Wish I had this girl singing backup in some of my own songs

Well this is very good. Starts excellently, lovely intro and synths matching with the smooth vocals, very reminiscent of Mary J Blige. Vocals are excellent. Beat kicks in nicely and just at the right time. Harmonies are excellent. Rap section comes in perfectly as well. Overall this is excellent, great job. Top marks for you!

Nice groove and feel. I appreciate the positive message as well. The intro pulled me in which is always a good thing and what it's supposed to do. The vocalist brought a lot of emotion to the track. I was surprised by the rap but it wasn't out of place. It's got a real nice gospel vibe on it but could survive in the R&B market with no problem.

This isn't something I'd look out for but I found myself drawn in and carried with the feel and groove of the song. I really like the use of the background voices.Good work I like it!

Very marketable product. Nice transition from R&B to Rap. Both vocalists male and female made excellent complimentary contributions to the tracks overall quality and presence.

The female vocals are nice and clear. Nice hook! A song that Mary J. Blige can sing.

Phased Rhodes. Yes! Vocals are great. I love the message. Thanks so much for letting me listen. MP

Very poignant song overall - good message. Vocals good.

A good solid balad surrounding a rap break with strong social comment. Warm singer backed by some well-chosen guitar phrases. The rain image brings out the bleakness of the song.

I liked the intro sounds and chord progression. The sentiment of the song seems good too. I'm not much into rapping so not sure of market potential.

This song feels like a conversation in a quiet room on a day when something big happened. Positive message for the most part. Very good singing and strong rap presence. The slow air was filled up with an energetic landscape. Sweet guitar and the other instruments were appropriately subtle. "And we gotta be Godly although we cant be Him." Key.

Nice message.

Nice vocals, good message, and overall good display of emotion.

Very calming track...feels like a perfect song for the credits of a movie...Nice lyrics....good vocals for the most part...

Nicely done with a positive message. Nice vocal quality.

Loved the intro with the natural sounds. Your naturally beautiful voice came in like a clear bell. Understood all your vocals, so beautifully sung. I hear so many songs on BJ where the vocals are not clear...yours was beautiful. The message of this song is really relevant; never heard it quite expressed this way. Very original with the rap inserted there toward the end. This is a song that NEEDS TO BE HEARD AND SUNG a lot, especially in the light (or darkness) of current events, so go for it! Excellent lyric writing. Flawless recording and production.

love the vibe of this song!

Really nice sound on the piano and the singer has a good voice. Soulful with a pop feel.

I love the sound of the phased Rhodes and nylon string guitar in the opening! Excellent vocal sound and performance. I love the production used in this track.
