Lyrics

Drop of Hope

Angel's staring at the sidewalk
Borrowed suitcase in each hand
Passing faces read her T-shirt
"I'm doing the best I can"

Tear-stained cheeks in the sunlight
A better world's not far away
So take a deep breath of sunshine
And a life to fit the name

She seems to be going somewhere
Never eat their words of wisdom
Her destiny is uncertain and she'll
Drink each drop of hope that's given

Angel's floating up the sidewalk
With a new dream in her head
A Saturday far away
Where she can start it all again

She seems to be going somewhere
Never eat their words of wisdom
Her destiny is uncertain and she'll
Drink each drop of hope that's given

Angel's staring at her sidewalk
With a T-shirt in her hand
Waves to all passing faces
She's been doing the best she can

She seems to be going somewhere
Never eat their words of wisdom
Her destiny is uncertain and she'll
Drink each drop of hope that's given

I love the melody, I love the voice, the overall arrangement is nice. The backing vocals also nice. It's a nice track.

Great lyrical theme it fits the music quite well.

I love the vibe! It has kind of a Lynyrd-Skynyd-meets-the-Beatles to it. I think the guitar parts are superb!

Love the vibe this song gives off. good all-round construction and arrangement. love when Harmonys come in to lift the song. reminds me of "the Vines"

yes I like it, sounds good. A classic sound. Nice tight arrangement, well polished.

Strong rock guitar & vocal. Good use of harmonies. Interesting instrumental bridge. Good dynamic contrasts between verse, chorus, and bridge. Nice (and unexpected) outro.

Beautiful!!!!!! Absolutely loved this. Here's why: Excellent vocal tone that sounded even better than stellar with the vocal harmonies (like at 1:00) and the way the vocalist would draw out the notes so smoothly with beautiful tone, example: 3:25 and some of the zone that followed. Also the vocal only at the end was inspired and floated off enhancing the vibe. Loved the way the guitar supported the vocal so well laying down those big sheets of tone for the lush feel. Thought the guitar part at 2:12 added to the song (which at over 4 min gets a little tricky) making the other parts fresher and adding a (good) change of atmosphere and vibe. Very tasteful and stylish playing. Overall, great judgment on the part of the players to achieve the sound and put everything in exactly the right places. Well done.

cool country rock vibe, loud and clear (thanks!) been a rough night reviewing...LOL...nice lead vocals, like the change up/chord progression. damn nice sounding guitar work...but needs to be clearer...the uh uh uh harmony is VERY cool.
