the song comes with a good start and also the guitar tour is not bad. your voice is suitable for the kind of music you do and even the piano plays its part accompanying the guitar in a spectacular way. I do not see any faults neither in terms of performance nor in terms of performance, so I can not give you any negative judgment, in fact I have to tell you that I really like it. the only thing I do not find a blues piece as you indicated but maybe I'm wrong.

bob dylan iis in da house-liked it-love dylan so keiths style caught my ear-not over produced-earthy underground feeling-keep writing keith- digging the groove and the guitar picking telling a story about twist and turns--[laying acoustic music my self with my wife for a living we understand the the feel and mood of this tune-Terry

A superb song lyric about pressing in for the journey of The Overcomer Stunning in it's complex musical composition, which is in contrast to the simplicity to the mellow way the vocalist sings the lyrics. Wisdom and sage advice in a nutshell ..A very unique style and a wonderful talent. I especially loved the guitar instrumental. It called to mind another artist...Billy Joel . Beautiful! I really enjoyed the journey and appreciate the advice right now. Onward and Upward. I look forward to hearing more like this soon!

Strongly influenced by the "golden years" of songwriting; You can hear little bits of Eric Clapton and Paul Simon in his crystal clear travis picking guitar playing. You can hear the insightful advice in his lyrics, via Bob Dylan and Tom Petty. The vocals show an experienced musician with plenty of experiences to draw from in his songwriting. The guitars have a nice, honest recording technique. The vocals may sound better without the slap-back reverb/delay but instead a softer longer reverb with a lower pitch EQ for the reverb. "Rest if you must, but don't give up" is a great line. The recording is clean sounding and a overall a good bed for the song to lie on. It's good to hear a songwriter who's using the genre what it's meant for and not pandering or writing surface level content.

I really appreciate great music like this song very unique and creative well composed and well put together I love the guitar I love the way you think in your writing keep on making great music and never stop creating at anytime I would love to hear more of your music and thank you for sharing your gift with the world keep on going to the next level and have a great day and enjoy your week And God bless you in all your endeavors

Good lyrics, nice progression, and this song is well worth committing to a better recording. Like the piano arrangement, and I can imagine it with a Tom Waits-style sound, small band, with maybe one brass, just a thought. In short, I think it's a good song, and with development, could be a really really good song. Keep twisting and turning, Keith.

Keith Laird nous entraine dans une jolie ballade Folk intimiste. ça commence par quelques plans de guitare blues, avec une voix que la reverb éloigne un peu, mais très vite, l'arrangement s'étoffe. en plus du picking guitaristique arrive un piano finement joué du plus bel effet. La tonalité générale est assez mélancolique, et l'ensemble coule de façon fluide et sans esbroufe. Bref, en résumé, bravo Keith, belle réussite que cette chanson. On en veut d'autre

“Rest if you must, but don't give up” is a salient phrase for this time in this life. TWIST AND TURNS is an important song for the now we are living through. “Life is strange with its twist and turns” reminds the listener to delete the need to understand and keep moving forward. The listener is encouraged to take a break from the strangeness of life. The song repeats: “Rest if you must.” This is done in various ways connected to differing phrases, so maintains and sustains interest. “When care is pressing you down” - “You want to smile, but have to sigh” - “Rest if you must.” The pleasant acoustic guitar begins simply with a chord then single notes morphing into rhythmic finger-picking. Rhythmic piano is added building excitement and giving the effect of a life full of rushing - so much to do to reach the “Victor’s Cup” and the “Golden Crown” that are just within reach. “The goal may be closer then you think” - “Don't give up” and “Rest if you must”… Each time I listen, I hear new wisdom, new encouragement, nuances that provoke thought, consideration. Folk meets Jazz rhythms and vocal move along through the entire song as the Singer intermittently repeats the mantra - “Rest if you must” until the ending when the song resolves simply with “Life is strange with its twist and turns.” The guitar and piano do a quick fade-out which is perfect for this theme and style.

Mention the blues and I'm there, really loved this not to much blues but your vocal is strong with a touch of Lennon meets Crowded house, song is really nice and catchy. Well done my friend would love to listen to more.

Nice track, keep up the good work. A song which most people can relate to and one to inspire. Really love the guitar, but all sounds great! Certainly one to keep an eye out for future releases.
