Kevin, The sad, regretful lyrics and the music does have that "Crazy Heart" feel to it. You're right in that story's groove. Probably could have worked in the movie if you'd had a connection to Jeff Bridges.

My only suggestion is to change the title. I hate "Hey, yeah."

You could easily use a two-syllable woman's name as the hook to begin the chorus instead of "Hey, yeah." Like "Maureen" or "Sandy" or "Polly" (just kidding Polly). There's hundreds of 'em. Pick one. Make it the title and the hook.


Write from your heart, not what you think others want to hear.
