Judges Comments/Suggestions/Feedback
Wonderful melody/lyric. i'd just like to have the music much more dynamic for the second and 3rd verses say. this would add to the emotion and experience. overall very moving well done!

Feedback criteria are carefully analyzed and then given a rating across a five stage range:
1. Awesome (It can't be any better)
2. Very Good (It's very appealing but could use a little finetuning)
3. Above Average (It is showing potential but requires more work)
4. Average (It's just not standing out from the crowd at all)
5. Developing (It's really at an entry level stage and fundamentals must be grasped before moving on)
