I like it, but i think there you have deviated too much from a natural sound, i think if the vocals hadn't been distorted perhaps the song would sound a lot better

I like the song! so if it"s about love, life & relationship?    If love is grand! and life and relationship is basicly the same, it has it"s ups & downs. Try that with the back-up vocals. example: sing about love, use the back-up vocals  for your ups and downs. and 1/2 way hearable. like a Rob Halford sound in the back ground,  I"m not going to say sack the bassist, but bring him to life, throw a spot lite & a little style to him.

i think you guys could make your solo sound more hard rock then i think it will sound sweet. But on the other hand this song is still sweet.

Thanks, keep them coming...
Unfotunatly i have no bassist to sack, just me plodding round the fret board trying to get a decent bass line out of it, for some reason i have never taken to playing the bass that well, i will keep practicing.

I dont think im able to change the song now that the contest has started, so i will try to rework the vocal with a little less effects after the battle...

Thanks for the feedback q:)

Nice mood, sounds like R.E.M. And I don't know what are thise guys complaining about bassist, he sounds good to me. What I would do maybe is change sound of bass guitar, more treble or something like that.  What you could Improve is sound of solo guitar, bring it to the front of the song... Anyway, nice song...Keep rockin' and good luck!

Not bad at all, might try a clean lead just to see how it sounds but I like it like it is....

is this song just made on computer or something? the bass hasnt got much tone, good song though i like the structure and the solo's, whoever said the solo's should be hard rock doesnt really have much sense because the song clearly hasnt got that feel or attitude and i feel the solo's shouldnt be touched, just instead of having the same acoustic guitar, what is it just 2 chords? well make another part to it, i only listened to it once but didnt notice the chorus and the verse being different, if they are, then add a bridge just so you can have some change, but could someone please answer my first question, about the computer thing

Hi, it's all played using real instruments, but through my recording software... You're right about the bass, it is a bit dull, but im not the greatest bass player the world has ever seen... Once the battle is over i'm gonna take this one doen and try to work the parts that people have commented on... Thanks for checking it out

I think it sounds like early Peter Gabriel. A better recording would really kick ass.

Wow I love this one! Maybe it's because that guitar echoes remind me of some song  by Kendra Smith or Throwing Muses I adore... Nice lyrics and vocals too. Maybe a bit more of panning should make that flanger/phaser sound more clear and come out without overriding the bass line.
Very nice job!

I love the vocal dub, play with moving pan, as on the guitar, good tune, bring up the percussion and ad it some dly, have fun with the mix, as I said good song
