Hot off the press, especially need feedback on "All In," as this song is "on the edge." I am trying to complete song choices for a concept album I have written about a man searching for truth his entire life. And then this song came two days ago. I finally have it completed enough to get feedback. A heavy duty subject, need to know how this hits you, as written. I can take it!

WARNING: Jesus/Satan theme (but edgy)

EDIT: The recording above is the newest version, posted since DonM first replied.

I like the concept and many of the lines. I think you can tidy up some of the lines a little, but you usually do on subsequent drafts.
I like it but not sure it's finished.
But what do I know?

Hi Bill (and Don by default... LOL!)

Man, that's some song. I believe it has fantastic commercial possibilities. Naturally, it would depend upon which artist performs it but I can hear it on the radio right now. Loved your performance as well... and, if you go for an album... it's a strong song. Congratulations and keep us posted.

Bill ... strong song ... I love the irony of the devil being beaten by three sixes - 666 - which is often associated with the devil himself ...

Very cleverly written. I could see that on a Christian radio station.

I'm Jewish. The song doesn't do much for me.

I like that the song tells a story. Pretty music and melody. A great vocalist could take the song to a much higher level.

"All in" isn't the catchiest hook. But the story might be interesting enough to make up for the lack of a meaty hook.
