Great tune and an interesting topic. Made me wonder if you were referring to fluoride and
mind control. Or perhaps someone really did slip you a micky.
 
The production was very good and cheerful. I think Acid Polka is just the right style.
 


Yes Tom. Fluoride is the topic at hand. Thanks for your kind words.

I like your song and the production is slick. There are plenty of suggestions here for tweaking the mix, but you've done a fine job with it already. Tweaking might make it "better," or worse. Who knows? I'd mark it finished.
 
If your Soundcloud tags give a clue to the meaning of this song, you might not know that water fluoridation was a big hoo ha in this country in the 1950s and 60s. Many right wingers thought it was a communist conspiracy and fought mightily in the press and water district board meetings throughout the land to stop it. I think it is a nearly universal practice now, which may be why there's a segment of our society which seems to be crazy.


Thanks Larry. Water fluoridation is still a major issue. I buy bottled spring water which I hate as all that plastic doesn't help the planet.
(I do recycle it though)

Very catchy and cool modern pop song with great songwriting, clever lyrics, well played instrumentation and excellent vocals!
 
You've also got a fresh sounding, radio-ready mix that sounds fantastic.
 
Dynamite production, Daryl, great work!
 
Best Wishes,

Sounds pretty good to me, nice mix.  I agree the hats/shaker sound could be curbed a little with a Lowpass or drop in volume to leave a little more room for the vocal.  my only other Crti. is in the verses I found the synth pad that is shadowing the vocal melody a little distracting.  Sounded like an odd vocal effect at 1st, then I realized it was a synth.   Take it or leave it.  That's my 2 cents!  Nice work though!


Thanks for the words of advice Chuck. I appreciate it
