Yet Another Pop Song

Here's a thinly-disguised lament for lost youth and cautionary note to same all in a somewhat pop vein.  It was tracked and mixed with SONAR Platinum except for the electric guitar lead which was recorded at StudioPros with some further edits and effect enhancements added later in SONAR:

    This was very nice. Good performances and the composition was also good.

    It sounds well recorded and the mix has a nice well balanced sound.  It could do with some vocal harmonies plus a few well placed Oh's and Ah's also some little processing on the lead vocal to just give it that extra something, and I am not talking about  auto-tune or any of that sort of thing, little touch of distortion perhaps a more sympathetic reverb, something to just thicken and give more body.  As for it being "Another Pop Song" any song that is popular is a "pop" song.
