“Reminded me of Owl City. Peppy and upbeat with a playful sound. The lyrics were easy to pick up and sing along to. The sound is very young and today. I see this getting a lot of play on the radio, a classic feel good song everyone can relate to. This is the kind of stuff that makes good playlists.”   A Crowd Review for Late Nite Reading

  1. Meh- I feel like ReverbNation is best at making money off of artists rather than helping them make $

  2. I got reviewed and it seemed fair. Most of them gave an honest opinion of what they did or did not like. You can see how it is laid out on my facebook page Andy Rey.

  3. i found that some of the comments contradicted each other.
    one say the vocalist is pitch perfect and the other says the vocalist cant keep in tune. I mean either you are in tune or your not, right? some say the music is crisp and clear others say its un audible. i dont mind the criticism but i think these things are not opinions. its either in tune or its not, it sounds clear or it doesn’t. so for that reason im not sure if they even listen to your music or just hit the play button and then coppy and paste what they said about the last song.
