Earle....Really like how the vocals are recorded....this is a good song and

The silent "H" is for "Hella Good!"
Never quite know what you'll get in the "other" category. This is just an
all-around nice song. The flute (or Irish whistle?) is a gem in this piece
as is the (what I'm guessing is) the accordian. Your singing is terrific.
Your voice is confident and natural, perfect for this modern-folksy
style. The lyrics are very well written. You might consider including
them in the song description. I think this is a great song, but sort of
wish the chorus was a bit "hookier." The verse sort of slides right into
it. With more of a footprint for the chorus this would definitely be one
of those rousing sing-alongs that drags whole crowds to their feet!

Past is present
Another from what past? The song has a great sense of presence both
in instrumentation and singing. Love that flute/penny whistle and
accordion. Combines Irish-Folk and Country-Rock elements. It almost
begs for additional voices - a choral treatment as it progresses.

St.Andrew ...
.. would be proud of this use of the Scottish flag .. good one jie. Like
rschletty I particularily liked the accordian/squeeze box and penny
whistly bits, could come up a bit .. especially in the instrumental break
bit.. excellent work on the vocals on this.

I can agree that it needs something to make the chorus stand-out
more ..
I also thought the little bass line shift was going to do a "man who sold
the world" bit for a minute ..

from "Feeling is the greatest .." you could consider some harmonies to
boost up this section ...
