I enjoyed the instrumental sections of this song the most. The changes in rhythm are good also. I thought the lead guitar did a great job also. It was nice to hear some back up vocals and harmony.

Interesting
I like the woman's voice and the lyrics are good. I'd like to join this band.
- Joe_Guy San Carlos, California
Entertainment here.
An enjoyable song for sure - catchy enough chorus line, fiesty lead guitars. If I were more mature, I'd resist the urge to point out the lead vocalist's resemblance to Geddy Lee. But I'm not, and that's OK. Good song.

Too Cool, subconscious reality!
Tight mix, clean and crisp vocals--very talented lady! Sharp guitar licks, never stepping on the melody, but right out top of the production. Great lyrics...you sure this isn't already signed? Should be.

Hey Mister reviews
Oh Yeah, You got a sound here
Great band sound, very well mixed. You take what is usually a tired guitar sound and add some nice licks that keeps it interesting. Drummer and bass player are tight on it. Vocal are good. Lryics . . . hmmmm . . . I would have made this a "call back" song and just repeat the first and second lyric, that is what you did for the last verse. The "time/dime", "wind/in", is pretty weak, especially when you have such a good hook line.

It's nice to hear Mark Knofler references in a blues tune, nice choices, the vocal is adequate but the groove is interesting and the production is solid, nice job.

So Long Baby reviews
So Long Baby
There's quite a country feel to this Rock track - at least until that awesome guitar kicks in. This Halifax, Nova Scotia, band puts out some pretty good music with good composition and reputable musicianship anchored by some great guitar work. I particularly like the vocals by Krista on this and a couple of the other tracks - no offense, guys.

well written and performed flawlessly. Would expect to hear a song like this at the end of a movie during the credits. the sound is a bit dated coming from the late eighties. Extra Credit: Female Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Bass, Production -

Rythmic, gritty, yet soothing Rootsy-Rock
Great vocal sounds. Reminds me of some Lucinda Williams. Very laid back and soothing in the (vocal) approach- probably the song's strongest attribute. The guitar playing features a great sound & direction- not to mention a top-notch performance! Wow. I can't stress enough how well the guitar (leads) are played here. This track is full of gritty style and grace. Dead-on in performance and songwriting. One of the best tracks I've heard lately-quite impressive and cool. Keep up the great work.

Nice yearning
I got sense of yearning from the vocalist that was both sad and sexy at the same time. I don't know if that was your intention, but it seemed to convey that message to me.

Sometimes Love Isn't Enough....
Very mainstream modern country sound. Drum puts us on the second beat suggesting movement uphill. Acoustic and electric guitar - introduction ends with dah-dah-dah-Dah - do - do - do a subtly indication of the direction of the lyric. The guitar break is played with a cry and general sadness, filling out the theme. Bass underneath with dah - dah - do, do - dah, suggesting resignation. Vocalist handles the lyric quite well. Lyric is a very singable pleading. "Lord help now, 'cause I'm all alone" stands out. The rhythmic shift before the break and before the conclusion is ok, but the song would be fine without it.
