here's my question: do I need to re-do the vocals? No - necessarily But I think you could balance them a little better in the mix This is a very nice song Michael bmc |

I vote for redoin the vocals but you have to be in the mood cause the soul in this song is awesome man ! god your voice is so tom petty meets bowie meets you ! I really like this but I think you could soften the voice a little and then maybe add a little effect to the track hmmm and there is alot of poping and cut out in the vocal and for such a great song it deserves the vip treatment .....sweet song dude ! |

I think it's.... a beautiful song.Really like your writting and use of minimal sound sources here.I personally like a little something on a vocal track to add a bit of sparkle and shine,but given the subject matter the dry vocal track works in the songs favor.The simple and straight forward melody and how you used few sounds really add to the emotion of the song.Very much enjoyed. Blessings, |

yup a good re-mix. the vocals are more centered and greater presence. A good simplistic direct style like how Lennon would do at times. More intimate and a personal message. |

Sublime You are one talented guy, you know that. The vox are excellent, dont re-do them... they sound raw and naked... but they do need a bit of re-mixing... they dont quite sit with the piano... but the emotion is right there. Try a bit of eq and maybe reverb - they sound a bit dry to me. steve |

Why do I have missed this the first time around ? Glad to download it now. I like those strawberry fields sounds near the end and the little wet glockenspiels. |

Yep, yep, yep...... It's a great track. I thoroughly enjoyed it and didn't think it needed anything else. Paul |

Keep The Vocals What this song really needs is some really blippity screeching synthesizers right after the LSD laced chorus that buries "unkind, unsure, etc....." Other than that, I don't see a single thing that needs fixing. Oh wait, did you leave out the vibraslap? You need to go back and add that. Let me know if you need any help, bro. Really nice song Michael. |

pop filter yeah. i would re-sing them. you have a great moodines in your voice, but the pops and hisses take away from it... |

wonderful mood perfect sparse i'm a fan of minimalism i guess. love those flutes! what's wrong with the vocals? thanks |

on second thought ok, if it were my song, i'd add an ambient recording way in the back, just for your headphone wearing listeners. it would be sounds you'd hear out an apartment window. maybe some children playing, a dog barking. something implying domestic. but subtle! subtle subtle subtle but this isn't my song, so it's none of my business... :-) thanks again |

My two cents ??? ... I like the song .. I like the vocals ... I think they just need to be "mixed" and "blended" with the music a little more ... to my ears .. they have that "perched" on top of the music sound ... but the singing is great ... it's a mixing issue ... I have the same issue myself when trying to blend my vocals into a music bed .... and I fight fight fight with that perched sound ... I think some volume tweaks .. perhaps a touch of reverb on the vox and a couple of vol changes in the backing track .. and you will hear what I mean ... |

Very good song! Really enjoyed this. To be honest, in my opinion - the vocals are great. I enjoyed feeling the sincerity of the song. If I gave any advice at all it would be to make more songs! Keep doing what you do, cause you do it great! |

Micheal I like the voice. As has been said above, you have a lot of soul in this performance. You might get more improvement reworking some of the synth and piano parts. Very good song. Thanks Bill |

Beautiful song and sung with heart. I agree with DJ French Toast - Petty meets Bowie. I love the sound the way it is as it is drenched in sincerity. Great arrangement of supporting instruments too. Thanks for sharing! Keep well, Doug |
as it is - and if you hadn't asked I wouldn't have thought it needed anything. The only reason I hear to redo the vocals is the few instances of popping or shushing - but it doesn't really bother me. The vocal performance is excellent - but who knows what another take would be like? I don't see the need to add anything to the mix - I like the sparsity.
Not much help I'm afraid.
