Brimming full of personality and expression; "Everything's Great" starts at a gallop with frantic piano chords and a driving kick drum.
Enter Witzeman's vocal, controlled and majestic it soars above the chords with passion and a rich tone. He has a wonderful manner in his expression and "Everything's Great" sounds though it has come straight from a Broadway Musical. It is full of character and the content of the song is personal and confessional, allowing us an insight into his wry and precise mind that has given us a song; at 1:00 that packs in more than many manage in 3 or 4 minutes.
Due to its length you will continue to listen back again and again to here every minutia of additions and vocal harmonies that highlight certain sections and the intricacy of the guitar.
This track is a gift that keeps on giving. - House in the Sand
