The harmonies really make the song complete. I heard a little percussion but at first I thought it was just your hand hitting the guitar while you strummed. I didn't really notice any bass. No matter, the addition of the harmonies was the topper.

Nice job.

Nice job.

 

 

The bass is nice and clear on a CD I burned. It is plenty audible on the USB connected speakers that I plugged into my laptop. They are made by Cyber Acoustics and actually what I use when I am initially mixing on the laptop. I listen to the completed mix on my Roland reference monitors to make sure everything is okay at the end.

I might have to follow Ellen's advice and give this one away to someone who can sing it. Some of the lyrics maybe could use a little tweeking, but I think it mostly needs a good singer to pull it off. And a good band to play it. I'm just a hack songwriter wannabe
:)



I did not mean to imply that by giving it to a different singer you were not able to sing it! In my experience, having someone other than yourself sing something you wrote can help a song realize it's full potential. Especially when it's already a good song, like yours.

Just a quick note here. I was away for most of last week and I finally got done listening to this month's VOM. Great job as always guys and thanks to all who listened to my submission and commented. It is a tough piece to play, I've done it better and believe me, I have done it worse. But it was a one shot take so...

 

How many weeks till the next one???

Oh I know Ellen, it is I who insist I can't sing it! :)

I knew it the whole time I was singing it! :)

But still I sing it! :)

Because it's there! :)
