I think this needs to be faster - and if I had more time, I'd put the two verses together...there are also some issues with the banjo loop clashing with some of the melody - but it got the flavour I was going for... I was thinking about all the things they tell you when you're younger like "wait until you're older" and all the advice I was given, and at the end of the day, you better please yourself because you can't please everyone... :)
I Won't Wait
They say wait until you're older
the hottest passion will grow colder
but I won't wait,
no I won't wait
They say go slow don't jump the gun
you gotta walk before you run
but I won't wait,
no I won't wait
Life's a clock that's countin down
and in the end you're in the ground
too soon old and wise too late
I'll make the most of all my days
I won't wait,
I won't wait,
They say youth is wasted on the young
and time flies when you're having fun
so I won't wait
no I won't wait
Life's a clock that's countin down
and in the end you're in the ground
too soon old and wise too late
I'll make the most of all my days
I won't wait,
I won't wait,
They say it's all been said and done
and that you just can't please everyone
so I won't wait
no I won't wait
Life's a clock that's countin down
and in the end you're in the ground
too soon old and wise too late
I'll make the most of all my days
I won't wait,
I won't wait,
I won't wait

What a catchy tune! You've probably heard it before, but you sound like Dolly Parton.

Oh this is delightful. Love the banjo picking and the sweet vocals and beautiful harmonies. The tempo sounds just right to me. The I won't wait lines being shorter than the verse lines is a lovely change up. Some nice space and the banjo gets to shine a bit. That picking pattern is really cool. Love your song!

Nice rhymes and really rhythmic and love the banjo, the production is really good for this, great sing and very relatable. Live life and make music!! I will accept only three songs, but hope that you will make it back next year....I was missing you!!!
