Hi
I really like this song, and at risk of repeating previous comments, I love the synth that comes in at the chorus, and the melody works well as it is, it doesn't need any more.

Great title and a really good listen. Sparce insistent backing, lovely vocals and fab synths. I particularly like the 'organ' synth on the chorus. The only thing I'd consider is a perhaps some harmonies there as the track builds.
Good luck with the ep, it sounds fab.

This was fabulous - OMD but with a much better vocal
What would have improved it for me would indeed have been a slight variation in the vocal melody towards the end - just take it up one note on one of the repeated phrases and then go back to the repetition. Perhaps that would reinforce the song's theme of trying to get out but being unable to do so?
But that's me struggling to find something really.... It's great as it is.

I found the simmering fit the lyric. I'm pleased with how concise and sparse the lyric is and with the vocal delivery. Vocals, for me, held just the right mix of too-tired-to-care and just-about-had-enough - to underscore the lyric.

Love this. Dirty tension builder. My heartbeat got faster as the song progressed. Could totally see this being played on a gritty urban film.
Not qualified to give advice on any improvement I'm afraid. Good work

I have to tell you that I've been plugged into some grass roots groups on Facebook here in the US and feel this is going to appeal to them big time. They're going to eat this up like a pig roast on the 4th of July. Their numbers are legion and growing. I can see this played at rallies all over the country. The marketing potential for your music there is outstanding. You can bet I'll be promoting it whenever possible. Excellent work.

Sorry Diggs,
My iPad doesn't like Facebook. The page just keeps reloading so I can't listen to it.

Beautiful vocals, sexy, creating for me James Bond'y feeling.
I loved the use of guitars in the arrangement.
Nice use of instruments, I loved the automation, and how you take them out and in.
Nice work.
