Score: 10

...and I personally find the title and comments in contrast to how I perceived the song. The distorted guitar riffs felt heavy, depressing. The thuds of the drums and the bass line also suggested a heavy theme. The keys/organ suggest hope, and it suggests that the persona sees a light out of the dark he is in.
But that's just me.
Here's a treat -- impromptu lyrics starting after the 1:05 drum break:
The streets are cold, I walk with the thoughts of
what I see for me ahead.
Tomorrow? I don't know.
Oh tomorrow, I don't know.
Today feels just like any day,
no different than yesterday
and tomorrow, I don't know...
but I know there's still a ray of light
to shine down on me.
You'll shine down on me.
(Ooh hoo woo hoo...)
(Oh... oh-oh-oh...)
And now the review:
Pros: Near-pro recording quality. Deep bluesy feel. Excellent jam session.
Cons: Meh... hmm... just the title I guess (and maybe it's just me).
Tell you what, I'll pick up a mic and try to do impromptu here. ;-) Pardon me in advance in case I suck. 5 and 10.

Hmm, I can see where you're coming from with that. I agree with you on that one man, thanks for that.
The lyrics are nice, I'll see what I can do about adding to 'em and finishing 'em up. I like what you have though!
Just the title, well that's definitely inspiring man!
Thanks for the great scores and review!
