Just listened to Stay Around, love your vocals here, really nice instrumentals. Like your lyrics a lot, a gentle and soft song. Glad I popped round for a visit. Wishing you well, Melsi
Once again, I am ridiculously late in the game. Normally I try to offer constructive criticism, but I feel way out of my league here... O_O I can't play acoustic, and I damn sure can't do folk. However, I think the stronger reason I'm unable to give criticism is probably because it's just that GOOD. ______With the exception of the ending. I really think this song deserves a more powerful ending than the standard slow chord. Maybe you could try a longer vocal right there, possibly keeping the slow chord, just so long as the vocal is going past it by a few seconds. ______Or, you could play the chord and then repeat "Can you take me, give me hope, stay around, stay around?" slower and MUCH quieter. _______5.0 stars regardless.
After hearing your other tune, I had to stop and listen to this as well. Pretty acoustic playing. A voice that fits too... All I can say is I enjoyed this very much. Haunting.
Really lovely tune. Beautifully written with a nice chord progression and delicate melody. Good guitar sound and excellent warm vocals.
Cheers

"Stay Around" has a classic folk rock quality which I really like very much. I love the sweet guitar play and the deep expression of your vocal, the golden reverb on the mix and all the accents.
Delightful alternative country tune. Great voicing, subtile mix. Harmonies both from beatles and lambchop. Simple and perfect, magical atmosphere.
