Myself and a friend of mine started writing some songs recently, this is our first attempt at writing and recording. We recorded it in one take so try and see past the obvious mistakes that spending more time on it could fix. Enjoy!!

good production on the vox, the guitar lacks a bit of brightness, or roominess - could do with a subtle stereo delay or doubling effect. same counts for the tambourine, or maybe it's because all the parts are panned dead center, so the tune has no stereo image, apart from the backing voc! BUT... but that's just the production side of things,

and I'm merely being as elaborate regarding that because this is your first upload, and you're live in the chat right now as I'm writing this

as for songwriting, effective! good chord progressions, good build-up, sensitive, though rocking aswell even though merely acoustic, keeps me listening, and looking forward to more of your work!

welcome to the amp!

here are some people who thinks the one take recordings is not the best way to get a great tune, but i think they must hear this piece!!

sounds good, kaine.

about the song, it has a good harmony. i like it 

great job man, i want to hear more from you....

i really like this one i'll go into detale a bit later

Nothing wrong with this song    Sounds like your really singing from the heart. Nice vibrato. Well done.

u have a nice voice

the song is well costructed too.......
great song

wellcome to the amp

For those who don't know, its our first time uploading a song. Thanks for all the comments, this is the kind of positive pressure we need.

Cheers all!

hey, good song. good voice.

Well, you have certainly come in with a decent song....  You should always come in with crappy stuff, so people don't expect much... then WOW them... hahaha.....


   Seriously though, this is really good... I disagree with eveything PX said, except that one part... oh and that other part too....  Oh and he is kind of right about that other thing as well...  so, Anyway...  

    Welcome to the Amp, and Can't wait to hear much more!

this is my new favorite song on the amp. Good job.

The guitar doesn't seem..full enough. It seems hollow, and that could be both the settings on the guitar and the mix. I don't know how to describe it, but its like it's playing inside a glass case or something.

The vocal recording is fantastic, some of the best I've heard in a while, and I really love this chord structure. I'm really looking forward to hearing more.

Thanks again guys, its official, this is my new favorite site, if i keep going the way i am I may have to pay Betty ford a visit!!

I know what u mean about the guitar sound, I would prefer deeper tones myself. If i get a chance Ill work on it.
Thanks again for the comments, keep them coming.
Cheers!!

guess you recorded the guitar plugged directly in the mixer (if you use one). Thats why the sound is bit thin. Cause a guitar works with another impedance. You can make a bigger sound in the computer by using an amp simulation. There are several for free.

there is a good practice on the vocals. would like to hear more of you. a wonderful piece.

Thanks Triton,
is there a particular type of amp simulation that u recommend? if so where do i get it?

Ok thats it I've had it now.... *PsykoTroniK stands up and raises his hand* "Hi everyone, I'm PsykoTroniK and I have an addiction...BANDAMP.COM!". 

It seems the more I go into reviewing songs, the more I like what I hear. This is a great song dude! Again, unfortunately, I listened to it off my laptop at work so I can't reaallly comment on what everyone's commenting on which is the sound of the guitaring. BUT... I can say that I love the feeling in the guitar, the sensitivity, even the melody played on it. You have a good voice too and your use of emotion with it. Although I listened to this song through speakers that aren't able to delived a bit of bassyness or so, I have to agree on the guitar needing maybe, I don't know, a stereo enhancer/expander, giving it the double sound. Panning might be sufficient for the tambourine's side of things I suppose. There's just one part that felt akward to me in the first chorus inbetween "...you need (here) is all you need..". It felt like the lyrics was gone too long inbetween there, and I'm not even exactly sure how the lyrics went now either. The rest sounds all great. Nice goin'.

I'm looking to review some nice rock songs or nice love songs. Know of any here I can give a go?

i was goin like ok, nice song blah blah....until you started singing...you're voice is DAMN GOOD!!!!!!!! it reaallly made it more than just 'nice'

THis is an impressive effort, first song or not. and its a one-take! wow.

keep it up!!!
