Good, catchy Title and Start!

We are into the song's mood since the first second.

There is good balance and dynamics between the Verse and Chorus.

 

The performance fit the genre and the style is stable.

The one sentence review is - "It's a good song"!

What can be done to make this good song a memorable one?
There is need for a better structure:
Verse - Chorus, Verse Chorus... and it keeps that way for four minutes - not a good way to act!

There are two solutions here:
1. Cut the songs length to 3 min.
2. (The better one) Put a solo in the middle and a bridge which leads to the Chorus - and you've got the winning song!

That's the only "problem" I see here. All the rest works fine! The arrangements, choice of instruments, performance etc. - good work. The Chorus is memorable, which makes it commercial/radiofriendly.

The mass appeal is evident and the overall sound is positive and involving.

It seems like the kind of songs you'll hear on the radio.
This is positive! Folk/Country lovers will be pleased with the listening.

 ***Better recordings will help further this tune.

 ****Have listened to all the songs anyway - my favorite is "1952"!
