What Fans Are Saying About "Blue Skies, Green Eyes"
“There’s a very grassrootsy sound to the single. It’s remarkably well-performed! and equally well-produced. There’s a clear folk influence that mixes in nicely!
with an Americana sound and some gospel vocal techniques. I absolutely love! Yates’ voice; the emotion he evokes and the attention he demands is astounding.!
Instrumentally, the sound is fairly simple, but elegant. Searing electric guitar, a! tight percussion section, and wonderful back up vocals make this track very!
memorable. I found myself listening to it on repeat for ten or fifteen minutes! because it lends itself to that. It’s infectiously catchy and fun to listen to.!
Doc Yates’ website is very brief. It would seem that this is even his first single.! Once the independent music community gets a hold of this song, I hope that!
online presence expands. Doc Yates’ ‘Blue Skies, Green Eyes’ is one of the best! indie songs I’ve heard in the past few months.”! !

"Great flowing folk and alternative sounding tune. Awesome vocals! Love how he is able to produce his voice that way, and it's extremely pleasant to listen to! This beat is off the chain with the background harmony and melody! Excellent arrangement. Almost sounding like an upbeat Nirvana song. I'm honestly surprised you haven't made it big already! Perfect length and the song finishes just as beautifully as it began. Excellent job! I wouldn't change a thing, at all! Great beat, great melody, and harmony and great vocal ans arrangement period. I would listen to this a million times over and still enjoy it!"
"Those of bass drum and bongos in the beginning sound interesting but good. The bass guitar in definantly awesome. The vocal are good. The guys voice is different in a good way. This song definitely makes me want to get up and move. The lyrics are amazing as well. Awesome chorus! Great song"
"I really liked the beat at the beginnning at the song. The vocals really suprirsed me! I was suspecting something different throughout the piece. The words of the song really stood out since the singer was very strong and confident. I really like the background singers throughout the piece. I would really like to listen to this piece again, becuase it really spoke to me. The instrumentals really showed me a different perspective to the song that I would have not have seen."
"Nice soothing and chill beat, the guitar part is catchy and calming, and the lyrics are catchy especially the chorus it sounds like it would work in a movie soundtrack. Good for easy listening and for singing along to around a campfire or something, would sound good on the radio"
"I like how couple of artist sings at the beginning of song. something like 'oyee ye oh maaa' it will make the audience sing along. it also continues between the music quite often. the vocal of the artist is quite unique. i admire the music because its different. its slow and something you can sing along with."
"The drums, the bass, The artist tone voice, verse, echo makes the harmony sounds so good to my soul. This record is very skillful an interesting to hear an review this record. The artist has potential. The instruments are creative an talented an well balanced. His rhymes, lyrics, are strong an powerful. he will succeed"
"The beat of the background music matches well to what the wrist is singing about. The message the artist is expressing is very clear to listener which makes it easy for listeners to understand. The tone of the song is very soothing and nice to listen to. The story line is beautiful."
"The intro has a very strong beat. The verse in this song is very original in its display. In a crazy way it is one of the best examples of true skill. " oh way oh my my" is very catchy. This is the type of song you want to get stuck in your head and will get stuck. That is a very good thing. The lick the positive feel of the song. The mellow vibe goes well with the lyrics. The vocal of the artist are like none I have ever heard before. The is a pain in his voice that most artist don't have that can draw you in and make you pay attention to what is being said. The band provide good support to the singer but did not really stand out. The skill of the instruments being play did paint a colorful and vivid picture."
"A great vocal intro with strong male chorus and gave the song wonderful atmosphere of fun. I can see this being a summer jam. I was bobbing my head along to the beat and melody of the song and starting to sing the chorus along with the band. Reflective lyrics with a lament about a break up that makes the song very engaging."
"This song is so very unique that I had to listen to it and the more I listened the more I liked it. The drums sound like they're straight out of a hippie drum circle. With great rhythm grooves that compels you to sway your body back and forth. The acoustic guitar while not complex fits just right to the drums. The singers voice is the most compelling part. A cross between Bob Dylan, Eddie Vedder and Native American Chants that grabs you soul and won't let go. This is a song that you can either sit around the fire jamming with friends or sing along in a pack arena. Great song that I want to hear again. 10/10"
"The beat in the beginning really pulled me into the song. I liked the voice of the singers who really knew how to control their voices. I liked the guitar solo a lot along with the beat going in the background of the song. the song made me feel good inside and made me feel happy"
"Cool, the opening of the song reminded so much of Bray song! If you watch wrestling, you would know what I am talking about. The melody of this song is very original, and for a country song, that is saying something. But though it is original, it just sounds so simple. The vocals are fine. This is a really great song that everyone should hear."
"The beat is really nice, it wraps up the song very well. The beat and lyrics mix well together. The singer has a phenomenal voice, the singers vocals are spot on. This singer has true talent. This song is very fabulous and spectacular. I would defiantly listen to this song on repeat. This song can appeal to all different types of audiences"
"I like this song a lot. It makes sense to me . I like your melody . They are very hart warming and deep and clear . They are vey powerful. I like the tone of the song. Your vocals are very deep and clear and strong and every meaningful .your lyrics are very powerful and strong . They stand out . I like the instrumental you used for this song . It is ever peaceful. You are a every creative and stong artist. I feel like your song should be shared so all can hear"
"Right off the bat this song gives off a happy vibe. The beat is wonderful and I feel jubilant when I listen to the song. The background instruments are positive and well put together. I think the artist has an exceptional voice. I feel like this song could be very popular among the indie/alternative genre. I would enjoy listening to more of this artist. Overall, this a catchy song with a feel-good beat."
