Prenevost Music: Nov 26th, 2013: Your Quote “You make me dizzy makes me smile”
Your Review: Carmenne, I really like the feel of this song it has a real 60's groove. I love the distorted bass guitar. The melody and harmonies are really cool like a Monkees or Partrige Family tune. Nice vocals and production. A little more 60's feel than I need right now but I will be watching for the right opportunity for this song because I like it. I think it's perfect for a romantic comedy. Frank - Prenevost Music
