Hi,
Good intro like the tune. Good snare and really like your vocals, and its obviously a heartfelt lyrically.
Thoughts around production, your vocals should be louder on the key last lines on the 2nd and 3rd - dry your eyes when and try to get some sleep, its time now your tea is getting cold etc.
I agree you could tighten up the the drums and rhythm. Not sure what you're recording set up is, are you able to follow a click track? I also cant hear any bass? if you need some on a track just pm me and I'll see if I can help.

Hi Neil
Thanks very much for your comments, much appreciated. The drums are more than a bit ragged, following the suggestions from this forum I sat down and tried to do them again, and they were kind of better, although the first take feel had gone, so I think I'll try and knife and fork it to fit - always a dodgy approach, like removing an organ....
The lead vox, your'e right about that it needs emphasising, well I wonder whether a tracking Vox would work here, quite low in the mix? just on the lyrics that you mention, may be a Female vocalist to add colour? Do you know any that might be willing to assist?
I nearly always drum to a click track, you wouldn't think it would you?
As for the bass I wanted it quite low and dead in the mix, almost to imply a bass note rather than to really hear it.
Thanks again
