So it's 2am here and I JUST finished this. I've been working on it for a few days now off and on. *Mostly on it seems*


A few things to keep in mind:

...
I'm not a singer. Just a guy with decent pitch and who wants to learn to sing. Oh, and a new microphone setup with gear = toys. And is on vacation which means too much free time.


Anyway, there are still a few sections where I'm pitchy, could use better lyrics, etc... I'm still learning here, but any constructive feedback would be awesome :)

Check it out - see what you think :)



Note 1 - There is no note 1. Move along. ;-)


Note 2 - I played all of the instruments. I even rented a contrabass to play the bass parts!



Note 3 - I'm lying about Note 2 - I didn't rent the Contrabass (big upright bass) but I DID tweak the sound in my keyboard and played it there instead.

lol nice!! I actually believed note 2 before reading note 3:tongue:. For someone who isnt a singer, its pretty good. Of course, there is some parts that i think that didnt felt right( by that i dont mean the pitch but the notes you sang at about 0:50-1:00). For me it doesnt seem right, but this is your composition, so it must be right? Is it?

Thanks for the feedback!

Actually it's a good point. It wasn't the lead I was debating as much, as the harmony there. I wasn't sure about the harmony which probably changes the context a little bit.

Thanks for listening... Do you have suggestions that might have sounded better?

For me its a little bit difficult to say cause I dont really sing, so i dont really know how what to suggest. In what range did you sang? Maybe if you know it'll be easier for me to help you i think.
