| What is the song TEMPO? | 106 bpm |
| What do you like about the RHYTHM? | I love how it isn’t just a simple few beats. It sounds more complex |
| What do you like about the ARRANGEMENT? | I like how they repeat the main line for the intro and bridge but not in an annoying way |
| What do you like about the MIX? | I like the bit of over lapping in some parts of the song. |
| What do you like about the TIMBRE of some or all of the instruments? | I love that you can tell that this is an early 2000’s rock song just by how the guitar sounds and how the singer is singing. |
| What do you like about the PITCH of some or all of the instruments or vocals? | I like that it they are all not super high but not to low so it is almost at the perfect pitch. |
| Are there particular TRACK(S) that stand out? | Some of the guitar tracks over lap each other and it sounds really cool together. Also some vocals. |
| Finally, what do you like about the overall COMPOSITION? | I just love how everything fits together. How it starts with some little guitar and quiet singing and then the guitar gets loud and the drums start and it just fits so good. |
“A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections.” wikipedia.org/wiki/Song
