A review by Thom Speller
(about "Take It Over") This song is great! I love the uplifting mood it generates. The repetetive piano is brilliant and all the instruments blend together perfectly. If you haven't had record interest I'm surprised it sounds straight off the radio. Excellent stuff. Thom Speller, Burnham, UK
A review by Stephen Skrehot
(about "Take It Over") Love the organ. Well, it is definitely original. Not your average beat, it's almost new wave. It's definitely fresh and has character. Man, you've got a good voice when you rolled up an octave, I would never have guessed the singer could sing like that an octave higher. I'm impressed, but something about the vocals during the verses.. could be a little stronger. It's still a neat song: there are parts where the vocals are a little strained, and could use more backing vocals and maybe clean up the lead vocal line and making it more hooky and simple. Good stuff. Unusually fresh. Stephen Skrehot
A review by 'Makarmusic'
(about "Take It Over") Groovy jazzy beat. Vocals could be more rhythmical and have more feeling and energy. They are a little blase until they hit the high notes and then it seems the energy is right. Drums and bass are really tight. Like the piano too. Production is good as is arrangement. Mood is cool, like the musical Chicago/42nd steet or that song about Broadway. Like the break down at 3:30 with that funky piano going on in the background. Has a definitely dancy feel and is swinging towards the end when the band lets loose. Nice work. Makarmusic
A review by 'C.P.J.'
(about "Take It Over") This song was well written, well played, and basically just well done. I really, really enjoyed the vocals nice job, man. Oh, the piano right here around 4:20 is awesome, nice job and good job throughout the song. Everything sounds well balanced throughout the song and its taken at just the perfect speed to set up a great mood. The vocals though, great voice. You have some real talent, keep up the good work.

A review by Kip Reese
(about "Take It Over") The piano in this song is nice and keeps a good mood going. Production sounds nice, and nothing seems to be overpowering or drowning anything out. Not sure about the mood of the song... would be good background music at a get together or something of the sort. All in all this is a nicely done song. § Keep up the good work. Kip Reese
A review by Jason Freeman
(about "Take It Over") I like the intro - great drum/bass/piano work, and it really creates a sense of anticipation for the eventual chorus hook to come. It sounds as if this entire track was created by a syntenic drum/piano instrument, which really takes away from the reality of the track. Yet I still find myself bobbing my head, which tells me that if this track were recorded with real instruments, it really could be a jem. The vocal work is good here, but not perfect. I think this lead vocalist had a lot more in his bag than he's letting on, and I think a re-recording of this track could really bring that to the forefront. The chorus hook really makes the build-up of the verse pay off. Great funk guitar, off time and really spot on. I like the outro of voices on the outro; it really brings the whole track to a proper crescendo. Nice fade-out. Overall, could be a really good track if re-recorded and mixed properly. Good job.
