Review of Hey Kate!:

Very polished work
Great guitar tone here. Professional production.

Great harmonies during the chorus!

Very surprised by the chord changes at the end of the chorus. I was expecting something more generic, but what you did was unique and refreshing.

Now, even a good song like this can be ruined by a bad performance, but there is not even a single note in here that I can say negative things about. Excellent performance.

Good song + good production + good performance = 5

Great job
