More "Song of the Year" Reviews!!

Just received four more reviews from "Song of the Year" and I'm really happy to share them with you in this blog. These are four more tunes from my "Texas in the Man" album which we are trying desperately to make available to all of you as soon as possible.
The lyrical aspects show a clear story and theme with an easy to follow musical formula. The wording is engaging and inventive with colorful, evocative imagery. The chorus has a strong sense of originality with very effective lyrical structure. The arrangement show clear and precise ideas that are adapted to music very easily. The overall sound is traditional yet has a contemporary sound that is unique and refreshing. The intriguing guitar introduction grabs the listener right from the start. The performances are stellar and accomplished. This is well conceived and composed. The ideas are presented in a clear and professional manner. This is an exceptional song with formidable hit potential.
The title is one of the elements of a song that a listener will remember and look for, but only if he/she likes the song. "Ain't We Got It Good" is very compelling. The first thing a prospective fan will hear, besides the intro, is the first line of the lyric. The lines are intriguing and awaken the listener's interest and convey the patriotic message of the song. The overall arrangement and precise, clear ideas propagate throughout the entire song. The placement of the chorus and the phrasing work as an unforgettable hook. Great job! The song's devoted and touching appeal makes you feel familiar with every line of the reflective lyrics, which in turn make this relatable to the audience. Great work! It is enjoyable from title to the last note!
The lyric is accomplished and there is a nice story behind them. There's good emotion through the song and the musical ideas show clear technique for writing. The title is a wonderful choice. The composition is thought out through every detail. Very good job! It is a pleasure listening to this composition. The listener feels familiar with it since its beginning. The chorus is impressive and involving. Great job! I cannot but praise the originality of the songwriting and the good taste about the overall arrangement and performances. Traditional yet with a unique style that represents strong songwriting talent.
The lyric is soulful and thought out very well with a pleasing upbeat melody that implements the mood precisely. This song has the essence of country with blues sensibility. The title has a wonderful place and this makes the song very memorable. The song is marked with an accomplished composition and powerful vocal performance. Your professional approach to your craft is stunning. I'm most impressed. The musical implementation has strong resolve and a playful sound that gives the song life. Great job! The composition is entertaining and professional. It would be fruitful to get it to an established artist(s) with a suitable style to capture the rhythm and soul of this composition and propel it into the musical charts.
I hope that these reviews didn't fall short of the reviews that I receive from the people who count . . . the reviews of all our friends here on the internet. Just wanted to take a moment to share what "Song of the Year" had to say but I'm really interested in hearing more from all of you.
While "Texas in the Man" is just about to be released (fingers crossed) we are already in the studio working on new music for the next album. Sammy has almost completed his solo album, tentatively entitled "Undiscovered," while I've been busy on a forthcoming album entitled "Urban Heaven." Sammy and I are working out ideas for a duo album which has many prospects for being a whole lotta fun both in the studio and on stage. And finally, we are narrowing down the prospective tunes that we'd like to put on our Six Gun style Christmas album which we hope to release by November 07.Thanks for stickin' with us. We sincerely appreciate all of the wonderful support that we are continually receiving from you and we hope to continue to bring you tunes that you enjoy hearing again and again.

Stay Safe
