Hey, Tony,
 
Thanks very much for checking this song out for me and for your input and encouraging comments!
 
I'll try a touch of EQ surgery on the drum bus to even out the snare and kick to see what happens.  I really appreciate your input, observations and suggestions, that's what makes this forum such a great place.
 
Have a great night, Tony!

Hi, Vicente,
 
Thank you for stopping by to check this out for me, and for your observations, kind words and good suggestions!
 
Yep, that first stop was meant to be a bit abrupt, but I might try putting a small pause before the clean guitar starts into the verse, just to see what happens.  I'm also going to experiment with your idea for the kick drum on the choruses.
 
Thanks again for your input and ideas, greatly appreciated, my friend!

Lights Out! Excellent Track Bob! >Shawn

Absolutely rock solid!

Quasi-musical textures and powerful lyrical textures (if that makes sense):  There's a cosmic force here: "Walk Away" hooks strongly on many vertical and horizontal levels.

The rhymes are super-cool, IMHO, and command the clean majestic incantation overall. 

(You can tell I'm at a loss of words. :):):))

My fav of yours to date and one of my favs of this forum overall!

Totally Rocks Bob!!

I too like what you did with vocals and harmonies......the guitars are just Lights Out power rock!! Excellent mix (listening on my cans). Well done!! (I like your other tracks as well).

Hey, Frank,
 
How are you, buddy?  Doing well, I hope!
 
Thanks so much for your input, kind words and observations, I always greatly appreciate your excellent ears!
 
Yes, Sir, I understand what you mean about the three syllable "Walk away" push into the choruses, but to be honest, LOL, I'm not quite sure what to do with it.   I originally intended to have the fourth syllable be a single slapback echo.  ie: "Walk away, (way) while you're still standing", but the delay echo stepped on the word "while" in "while you're still standing", so I took it out.  I thought about just re-singing it as "Walk away, ay", but it still would bury the word "while", so I'm at a loss, although it doesn't really seem that awkward after hearing it a couple times.  If you, or anybody else have any specific ideas or suggestions, please let me know, and Ill be very happy to give it a try.
 
Thank you again for giving it a listen and for all of your good input, advice and encouragement here on the forum.  Have a great weekend, Frank!

Hey, Lynn,
 
LOL, yeah, when I was writing this one I may have been having a flashback from a decade of being on the road playing the biker bar circuit!   But I always thought that music should make you feel something emotionally, up, down, crazy, mad, sad, or happy, and I guess this one gets some kind of message across.
 
Thank you very much for checking it out, and for your supportive input and comments, it's always greatly appreciated, my friend.  Best wishes for a rockin' weekend!

Hi, John,
 
Thank you very much for taking time to give this a listen, and also for your kind words and encouraging comments!
 
Yes, as I mentioned to Frank above, the "Walk Away" part didn't come out exactly as I originally intended, but I really don't think it's too distracting after a couple listens.
 
Thanks again for stopping by on this one, I'm really grateful for your input.  Have a great weekend, John!

Great tune Bob. Great energy as usual and a really fun ride.

Couple ideas:

• the drums are too much in your face, especially the kick. Take a listen to Whitesnake's "Slip of the Tongue". I think that a thick, kinda dull kick would apply more menace to the tune, while providing a good bottom end.
• pull an Ozzy and do the first verse with just the bass. When you bring in the guitars they will sound friggin huge.
• The chorus melody needs to flow better with the beat per Frank. Or vice versa. The Crue did that really effectively in "Wild Side".
