LET IT GO

What I'm meant to be
Only I can see
Now I understand
What it is & who I am
I don't wanna be
Something to take or leave
And if I wait for life will it wait for me, will I live at all

Let it go let it go if you wanna be free
Everyday everyday you can let the world see
Yeah i know yeah i know that it wont be easy
So here we go

Fear is the enemy
It makes you believe
That you cannot be what you wanted to be

Let it go let it go if you wanna be free
Everyday everyday you can let the world see
Yeah i know yeah i know that it wont be easy
So here we go

What I'm meant to be
Only I can see
Now I understand
What it is & who I am
Every time you're on your own
You can feel your not alone
And you might as well believe
You can let it go

Let it go let it go if you wanna be free
Everyday everyday you can let the world see
Yeah i know yeah i know that it wont be easy
So here we go
Let it go let it go if you wanna be free
Everyday everyday you can let the world see
Yeah i know yeah i know that it wont be easy
So here we go

What im meant to be
Only I can see
Now i understand
What it is & who i am

Dear James,

Thanks for submitting. Listened to "Let It Go"
It gives me great pleasure to say Congratulations and welcome
to the Sublevel Music family. We would like to accept this song
and are open to hearing more.

Taking a closer look at what you have here. Your situation is something that is near to my heart in that you have a song that sounds like you are the artist/band. Not sure you aren't a band but you write like one. So pitching a song like this to another band is very very difficult,nobody takes songs anymore. Although on my label I'm not so close minded to ignore the past and best way to go about getting music out.

I would let another band on my label do an OUTSIDE song. It gives them much greater depth and longevity. And a better CD instead of just a one song 99 cent download.

Now what I'm thinking is making your production recording of this song sound the best it can, perhaps re-master or re-mix re-master. We would pay for all of that of course.
And shopping it as is.
In the song itself I found it to be flat out catchy and memorable. This song works in so many movies or TV shows period.
You can feel the scenes just from listening to song without the visual. That's what good universal songs do!

The song is good in all the most important regards. It feels great. It is catchy,with wonderful melodies. The lyric are NEVER
awkward the words all sing so easily. They are also universal in they do not get over specific. So when this is playing behind a scene of a show or movie it's gonna work, I know it for a fact.
Great rhythm also with accents.
It has a GREAT arrangement and sounds current.

I found it very interesting that your verse was altered in the second verse, the short one to the chorus was very very effective. Was was unusual also was your bridge was the first verse repeated lyrically. I have never seen that before. The bridge music was wonderful, wouldn't have minded a switch of lines there just to enhance it even more,but it still worked.
When the whole package is right, you can get away with a lot more
stuff lol.

Loved the second verse melody. And the chorus is a winner.
Great tag, section as well. You knew how to make an exit.

Again, if this was the "All American Rejects" doing this song, it's on the radio and on TV with them performing it and there fans buying it. We can never get them to do it... So I suggest being prepared best we can to do it ourselves. Also keep in mind once you have something other opportunities present themselves.

But it's a pitch for serious prime time TV and film opps.
I'm so thrilled to share in this rewarding feeling of getting something accomplished with hard work & love of music behind it.
Again Congratulations,

Will be in touch
Sincerely
Mr Knowitall
