    Not much to go on, timing of the guitar sounds a little off and it is perhaps a little like I have heard it before, which is always tricky.  I sit on the fence, unless it is pointy, until I hear some more.

    That's kinda like saying: I've got this book I wrote and I want to start it with "Call me Ishmael" but my writing partner wants to start it with "Call me Gary". What do you guys think?

    But if it were I'd start with "Some know me as Bapu".

    I hear nothing that suggests this could not eventually, with a few timing tweaks, be the intro to a song.
     
    hope that helps!

    p.s. I also predict you are going to end up with a different collaborator  :)

    Singularly it sounds fine. But without the rest of the song, there is little context. I can say this however; this short piece has more soul and energy than any completed song I ever did.

    Please support my friend, Hannah Victoria Stock, simple by viewing her IMDB profile.
