Very nice. Good hard edge, but not metal to my mind because you're not screaming and I can understand every word (thank you for that).

@ Jean-Louise: Nice job.

Very good, catchy riff and a good message behind the tune.

PS. The drawings were a nice touch, thumbs up for your daughter!

Steve! You of all people should know Metal has nothing to do with screaming!

You're right about it not being metal though, but for the wrong reasons.
The bass is not heavy enough, the main riff is slightly high-pitched (not a reason on itself) and has too much of a hard rock feeling, the guitar just misses this thickness required for metal, the distortion could be in a different setting to get it a bit "warmer", and the drums are too slow.
(These aren't bad things, they're just reasons why it isn't metal)

Very good song, and I really mean that. But it isn't metal (I don't think you wanted it to be metal per se anyway)

You are quite right, I wasn't trying to make it a metal song, just a more hard, rockier song then the last one which was very downbeat due to the depressing subject matter. I'm really glad you liked it

Why would I know that? Every time somebody shows me their favorite metal that's what I hear.
