Members collinwho Posted September 2, 2008 Members Share Posted September 2, 2008 That intro is waaaaayyyyyy too long. I honestly thought I was listening to an instrumental and was in the process of clicking over to the other tab to close out your page . . . As for whether it sucks. I've heard better, I've also heard worse. I think it definitely shows potential, and with a little help from a good producer, it could definitely be pretty good. In reality, though, it doesn't matter if anyone else thinks it is good or not. When it comes to original music, the only person you can play for is yourself. It simply isn't worth it to try and figure out what other people are going to like/dislike. If you think it is good, then don't worry about what anyone else said.

Members Annoying Twit Posted September 2, 2008 Members Share Posted September 2, 2008 Well, I don't claim expertise in these things, but I think the lead vocal needs a lot of work. In terms of production, it doesn't seem to sit with the track, it sounds a bit like someone singing along with something on the radio. Perhaps the standard compressor -> limiter thing would help. But before that, I think (but what do I know) that she needs to practice the song a lot more before recording and do more in terms of interpretation. The interpretation sounds a bit perfunctory to me, not like she's giving it her all. Needs more emotion somehow. Maybe. I think I heard the occasional bum note too. Practice would help there. I have to agree that the introduction is too long too. I don't know anything about the music industry, but from the track on your myspace, I'm not sure you're putting your best foot forward.

Members shnoogumz Posted September 2, 2008 Members Share Posted September 2, 2008 dude... the intro's like a minute and a half. cut it down to just a couple of bars. the lead singer is off-key the majority of the time, and to me the chorus sounds a bit too wordy. the vocals sound weird against the instrumentals, but that's a production thing so it doesn't really matter. the drums sound too over-the-top to me, and the guitar's a bit cheesy (especially the lead riff at the end). finally, it ends way too soon. it needs to be longer. that's my input, fwiw...

Not a huge fan. The bass line is really the only part I like, to be 100% honest. But some of what bothers me again can be cleaned up with a sound guy/producer thing. But what others have said: screw opinion. tastes are too varying. You're listed as 'experimental' and this song fits that. Keep up the good work.

Members Brother Mango Posted September 2, 2008 Members Share Posted September 2, 2008 The music is ok, to me. The vocals sound like they were casually slapped on after the fact. Plus, the vocals don't have the energy of the music. I can imagine her singing while reading the lyrics and rolling her eyes like, "what am I doing here? My agent said I was auditioning as a backup singer for Steely Dan." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Super Bass Posted September 2, 2008 Members Share Posted September 2, 2008 Screw what that person said, go see the producer. At the very least you might get some advice from him that will help. I think there's a lot of potential in the song, but as others have said the vocals need a bit of work.

Members BassMaster General Posted September 3, 2008 Members Share Posted September 3, 2008 Everything on the internet has some {censored}tard who has to chime in to say it sucks. If you don't have at least one you should make sure your site is working properly.And I can't really add anything in regards to critique that hasn't been mentioned. Good luck!
