Good Guitar....good feeling...tweek the arrangement a little...double check your lyrics.... With a little work, this could be a really good song for you.

I dont think he's tryin to sound like Bob Seger. This is his take on the song. Which is fine that it doesn't sound like Bob. At least your nice about it though. j
