Lyrics

When you've lost the vision
And lost the will
Lost direction
And lost the thrill
Got no motivation
Lots of time to kill
You may wonder why
Life Goes On

When you're lookin' out
'Stead of lookin' in
And always waitin'
To begin
Procrastinatin' while the light grows dim
Amazed that life goes on

You'll make mistakes
Make millions
Tryin' to learn the score
Just when you've thought you'd found the key
They'll change the locks
On the door

But, don't get discouraged
And, don't be dismayed
Don't be too angry
With the choices you've made
Know that tomorrow
Just might be the day
You remember why Life Goes On
Be thankful
That Life Goes On

Nice positive message and the vocalist has a very unique sounding voice.

Musical potential - vegas

The lazy, laidback melody is more reminiscent of blues than pop and could more easily find a market in jazz radio and clubs. The artist's voice does remind me a bit of Nat King Cole, and considering the success he had in his day, I would venture to say that it can be repeated if the right market is targeted. However, because I am not familiar with the genre I can merely offer my opinion.

Leans more into jazz than pop. Nice intro changes. Warm and confident voice works fine over this little jazz h'ors doeuvre. Could lean back and sip on a smoky whisky to this..

Love your voice, good song!

Nice jazzy tune.

Chord progression is nice

Very nice vocals and piano. Most of all I loved the old time feel of it. Very well bone

Yesss. Love your voice dude, got this nice original feel to it. Obviously not your voice but everything else reminds me a bit of early Tom Waits. love these lyrics. Prob my favorite artist I reviewed.

Mose Allison, Ben Sidran...cool!
Very nice, cool words
To be honest, I've reviewed some BAD stuff 2nite and this a breath of fresh air
Cheers!
