That is a really good song, with really good singing, and some interesting chord changes.

One criticism: The guitar solo has too much reverb on it, it sounds too far away from the rest of the song, I think.

Thanks for sharing!

And it is. Beuatiful, I mean.
I love the guitar accents in the verses. Very nice! The piano chords seem a little too soft/weak for these strong accents. Perhaps some harsh compression or layering for sound design reasons only.
This is very well arranged and varied. The guitar solo sections are brilliant! I didn't see that one coming. It's almost bridging the styles of decades.
Great guitar sound overall. And nice punchy mix. Very classic. It would be interesting to hear how the piece might sound with a modern mix style mix as well.
Thanks for sharing! Great song and, let's not forget it, good lyrics!
