I thought I'd upload a new song I made on here.
Been a while since my first upload, but didn't have too much time to record in the meantime.
Anyway, here's a song called steal a hearth.
I'm especially looking for feedback on the higher voice I've been trying out for this song.
First time singing this high, and am still somewhat undecided on if I like it or not.
I'm contemplating only using the lower vocals for this song, so plz let me know what you think.
Thanks in advance!

Fogged coloured windows
Drenched in rain
You can call it innocent
You can call it insane

Your tumbs are screwed
And so are mine
You can call it innocenct
You can call it divine

I know I don't look the part
But I wanna steal you heart

You feel like
Something's bubbling from within
And that same something
Makes bubbles of your skin

And you feel like
Your head's in vertigo
Contemplate the gravitas
Of this thing that you bestow

I know I don't look the part
But I wanna steal your heart

Bums and travellers
And men with minds agree
Yours the fiercest facade
That man will ever see

Scums and soldiers
And the powers that be
Will neel before your tenderness
And do nothing but flee

I know I don't look the part
But I wanna steal your heart

The high voice is good for the song, it gives a color that helps the lower voice, but the development is very linear, without changes that could give a breath, another color, but it is simply my way of see your song... It's a strange song anyway, naif style perhaps, even a little Bealtes.... Sorry, hen I start wandering there is no stopping me. Hasta otro día. Mora

Your vocal is good ... sounds like Glen Hansard. I also like the acoustic style. My only advice would be to alternate between lower, higher and both voices together.

Amazing job!

I really liked the voice overlay and the instrumental buildup is top notch!

[Psmeaney]

Every component is very well done I think the vocals work so well together. It's got potential to steal hearts

Thanks for the feedback everybody. I'll try making the song more dynamic. Either by flipping some of the vocals or by adding some instruments.

Liked it a lot, especially the hypnotic, mesmerizing vocals, and beautifully written lyrics.

Yes, I liked this. Think that the double lead vocals work very effectively.

[Skub]

Yo Almost.

I was drawn in from the initial bars of the song.

Lyrically intriguing. I even like the 'hearth' misdirection,since the hearth of a home is the heart. 

Sorry I don't have time to go into depth,but I loved the song.

[rightly]

well done. This is excellent.
the whole thing
production, words, singing.

There's no fault I can find.

Great job!!

Listened to this a day or two ago....just come back and feel like I know it well...gets into you quickly that 'know I don't look the part' bit...and you get away with just repeating it again and again...it works!

Somehow it's gonna be a lot of a different song if you just go for only using the lower vocal....maybe you could just double with the high vocal in certain parts. For me now the two vocals are one of the things that gives the song or at least the treatment of the song its character.

Nice song!

[rightly]

Just listened again and it was as refreshing as the first listen.
I might follow suit with the falsetto 2nd voice.

Really works on this track.

I agree... the double vocal works very nicely and gives it a lot of character.  You could maybe do another take to really line up the timing between the two as closely as you can, to make it easier to catch the words.  The track itself is special too... very 'modern indie' sounding I think.  I could imagine fans of Bon Iver or The XX getting well into this.  I liked the delicate guitar and the way you keep the track restrained throughout, it seemed to suit the atmosphere of the lyrics.

Hey,

Wow, I am a little bit in love with this, I think it's perfect.  I think it would really work as a duet too with a female vocal.

I just listened to most of your Soundcloud.  You have a wonderful voice and an obvious talent for story telling.

I would likely pick up your album.

Good luck with it :-)

Cheers
