Hmm, very interesting! Great laugh and very realistic, haha.
The song is performed and recorded well with a clever approach and original theme.
This is whimsical, tongue-in-cheek, broadway-esque song professing the reality that so much of what we use in the USA is from China. The honky-tonk, stride piano and oriental melodies are all performed well. The recording/ production is also done well. I could see this in a stage production or maybe a TV/Film production. Well done.
This song is totally unique! Maybe an advertiser for toys made in China will want to use it :)
Cute tune, but all the MAGA stuff is also made in China.
This is great stuff. Very clever and engaging lyrics. The music suits the theme brilliantly. Great musicianship. The vocalist sells the song very well. The production is excellent and the gong at the end is a masterstroke. Superb work all round.
It's what it is - certainly unique!
good topic and the voice fits the production perfectly, Piano which wanders in and out of an oriental flavor was excellent both in performance and score. What I like abut it was the piano enhanced the story line and was fun but not over done - this song is for the stage in a comedy even though there is a serious message there which comes through at the end - enjoyed this well played, sung and produced
My thoughts as I listen to your awesome song: (I like to take notes as I go so this is very real ;) )
1. 5 Seconds in : Sweet Synth!
2. 5 - 10 seconds in - Am I listening to Disney's "Mulan"? hmmm.
3. EVERYTHING AFTERWARDS - WTF!? AMAZING. Friggen hilarious and I need more of this awesomness!
During the last 25 seconds of the song, I was still laughing over the creative choice of lyrics. I look forward to hearing more pieces that keep me on my toes and that ultimately end and leave me hooked, laughing my ass off, and wanting more. Well Done!!!
As a side note, your voice is truly lovely and the production quality is impeccable....Love it!
I can picture this song in a musical. We can all identify with the subject matter, so it has universal appeal. A good touch of humour and reality.
The retro-style (honky tonk?) piano sets the mood for the whole feel of the song in clever contrast to the very modern complaint 'everything is made in China'. The opening atmosphere is decidedly oriental, so a perfect match for the lyrics. I like the intro and the final gong most of all.
* strong vocal harmonies
* tempo changes are unique; novelty/Broadway musical genre
* lyric has a clear universal message
* piano backing fits song stylistically
* a 1920's number with a 21st century theme
Great musical/ drama play song. Super little song.
All the best
The overall impression of this song is that it was created in C-H-I-N-A, until the lyrics take root and the message comes across. However, I loved the Asian take on the melody and the instrumentation was executed with expertise. One would attribute it to a Chinese native. Very amusing lyrics with a delightful twist at the end.
This is a very well put together song. From the Lyrics to the singing and arrangement to the recording and production. Very nice work, with thought given to the harmonies and the pianist going a fine job as well. The background singers and harmonies were done very well. They could have been blended a little better engineering wise. But as a recorded piece they cam out nice and clean. Excellent job!
