Studio produced! I did the guitar, keyboards and the vocals obviously haha and the rest were other musicians!

I really like this.... Not sure if 'crashing' the lines together was meant but somehow it works but it is a bit confusing - Just my 2cent worth though....

Great video too!

Katie that's a fantastic song, wouldn't be out of place on the radio and in fact I've heard a lot worse getting play time lately. You should be proud of yourself. And if your user name reflects your DOB i.e 96 then you've got a great future ahead of you (and even if its not lol). I'll keep my eye out for your stuff. KUTGW.

Katiesmusic.... I seriously think you should go to this songwriting camp in Dublin - Have a read of it and if you like what its all about, get in touch with the guys there

You're definitely the 'right stuff' they're looking for!!

I deliberately didn't watch the video, just listened to it.

At the end I didn't know what the lyrics said. The phrases were catchy, but many lines were drowned out by guitar solos and drums. The production was too professional (or tried to be.) The sound dominated. But the overall impression was that it could be good. I thought that if it was simplified it could be something like Heathers "Remember When".
