I've got lots of ideas, if you need 'em. |

Location: Tennessee | Way to go PEZ. Writing new songs is always hard, posting them up for others is even harder, but somehow you make it look easy. You've definitely got your own sound ... which is important to have as you become more famous. You want everyone to know it's a PEZ tune the same way you know it's The Beatles when you hear them.
Feedback? Only this ... you might want to consider dropping a minor chord in the middle of the verse as a little bridge ... the lyrics should support it and it adds a little tension to the situations that Shooter keeps finding herself in ... then come back strong into the major key for the chorus. And try altering your strumming patterns through the different parts of the song to add to the drama.
Just a thought from someone who DOESN'T have a gazillion youtube hits. ;) |
