    Pretty good. To my ears the guitar and also the singing are a bit loud... and maybe a bit too much low end left in in general... and also maybe use a little cut between 200-500.
    Just my 2 cents... maybe just 1 cent...

    No complaints on my end. Sounds great and a terrific performance. You play a lot of instruments very well.

    For my pennyworth I don't agree with humanrock at all, in fact I think the guitar should be tracked twice and panned right a tad higher than left, and the vox down a tad and center ... This is a great song without my thought castings and I wish you well with it, well done

    I liked it.  Great straight-ahead rock song.   Mix-wise maybe a little mud in the lower-mids but that's just a minor thing IMO.

    Nice performances. Great vocals! I wish I had a voice like that. 
    Good song with some nice hooks. 
    I like the drums more punchy, but that's just a matter of taste.

    I think this is a fantastic mix with killer performances. And it so 80's without reservation or apology. The album is entitled "Eye in the Sky." Are you serious? 
     
    I love it. Very pro job here.

    Thanks.  I simply had that jpg of the eclipse, so "Eye in the Sky".  Once I fill up the album with enough tunes for a release, I'll likely do something different.  Maybe not.  Who knows at this point.

    Nice one!  This number has a great commercial quality to it.
