COMMENTS:
"Excellent vocals. Great guitar work. Wow, I didn't expect the drums that come in later in the song - they remind me a bit of the drums in "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" by Genesis (just the sound and the intensity). Before the drums came in I thought I had the rest of the song figured out. But no, you had to go and surprise me. Not to blow smoke up anyplace but this is brilliant."
Mika Salakka from San Marcos, Texas
“I love it. It sets the mood of just driving down a long dark highway at night, in the rain. I was ready to comment on the vocals stepping out of context, and then the lyrics answered, GENIUS!”
EnVayne, New York
“What a great performance!”
Xodius, New York
“Excellent experimental jazz song....the lyrics are very original.”
Mullos, Chicago
“As long as he keeps running away... Great Hook!”
CarbonStar, Missouri
Are Google Ads a good idea for independent artists?
Ads by Google are everywhere and the reason for this is that every time you click on one, the owner of the website gets a few cents. For well known web sites that get tens of thousands of hits a day this can lead to significant ad revenue, for small web pages though, it usually only results in a few dollars a week.
As an independent artist, should you put Google Ads on your site? Find out some of the pros and cons here.
