This song is not in a battle


Number 4 of more.....
Something recent again originating as two hummed lines bringing together a few ideas I had floating around.
A vocal with a little too much tremolo ?
Any one got some vocal recording / end production tips please fire away, it is what I would like to do right !
The words, for those of you who like to sit there singing along!!!

Even when I hold her hand
She is not mine
Even as I let her go
She stays

Even as I call her name
She brakes down and cries
I know that you love me
I can see it in your eyes

How can I ever tell you just how I feel
When everything has somehow gone astray
How can I ever tell her now that I love her so
As I stand before you now she's gone away

Even as I give her all I've got
She still goes and makes it more
Even as I tell her that I understand
She still goes and tells me what its for

If I were to tell you that there's no way out
Would you still want me to take you home?
If I were to show you what it's all about
Could you then ever truly be alone?

Do you know where lovers go
When it's all gone
Do you know now why hart ache sings this song?

Does this song not follow the Rules? Please Report Abuse

Nice one, Kings! Um..needs some music, obviously.  Production seems clear enough.  I leave the rest of this space for Marino and Maxdb....

phasing is way too hard but it sounds very traditional. good voice for this kind of song. and it doesnt need music. pure acapella. perhaps more voices as backing vocals?

Not entirely keen on the vocal production, but I feel the words man. Nice work.

PS. I'd remove the tremolo, put a less dramatic reverb on it, and tweak the EQ/compression on the vox.

Peace.

WOW! Thanks ALL !
Dave I will try out your suggestions, keep em comin they are appreciated !  
I do cheat in that I just chuck it all through GuitarRig lol, the tremolo is in there somewhere! Though this has got an extra reverb , leveler and the WaveLab EQ, I'll just have to get re-tweaking.
Map : M and Mdb had commented on "Sindres lost Winter Song", I just wanted them in the right place !!!
Triton, I think I just might try out some harmonies and alike on the next one (if there's call for it) , there's just no real chorus to this. I'm probably a bit apprehensive that it will become a bit too bizarre once I make a start at it!

The lyrics are nice. The effects on the vocals are a bit unnecessary, and I don't really like them. Um..you're not a good singer in any stretch of the word. Your voice is very 'rough' (in a good sense) and not at all fluid. Maybe thats where the phaser comes in? Needs music of course. Other than that nice job man!

So you finally made it. 
Cheers for the comments.
I agree with you about the effect, but it was not 'unnecessary' as I was trying out effects at the time, and my recordings have a 'studio' damped sound with no space, just voice, so I'm still looking for an 'effect' for my acapella stuff.
So I'm not a good singer? At the moment I have 2803 posts on the Amp, check them out.... I dont think I've ever said I was a good singer........I just love singing and I also love the sound of my own voice ! lol ....... and I can at least hit something that resembles a note............and keep it!

Vince................................

You play something that 'feels' like it should be playing with this and I'll either fit and mix these vocals to it or I'll re-recorded it to your track.

Maybe that was a bit of a quick judgment as this is the only song I've heard from you so far. I have to check out the rest.    Also, what does you having 2803 posts have to with your singing voice? That doesn't make you a good singer,  just that you've been here longer than I have    

Maybe try a light reverb for acapellas? But, I think your voice is more suited with music in the background. We all know I'm not a great singer either, so I hope you know I'm not trying to put you down man. Good luck.

Edit: I meant 'unnecessary' in the sense that it sounds like it's being used to mask something, when it would probably sound a lot better dry. So, the only critique I have is lower the effects a bit, and I think you'll be good to go
