Very good indie vibe to this, Tony...very much up my street. Seems to have a strong Liverpool music heritage running through it...and not many places (if any) have a greater musical heritage. You're in good company there.
Great song :)
Ps if you put the lyrics on the thread too...I'd be singing along!
-
Yep, great Indie vibe Tony. It did seem a little quiet though. Thought you're guitar solo single note stuff really complimened this, and yes a big Liverpool vibe la... :)
-
Thnx guys! Appreciate the positive feedback!

Good song, fine melodic chorus and interesting guitar sounds.
The production is a bit low on the old volume side and could do with a boost, that's the one main thing I would tweak. Cheers!
-
Catchy chorus.
Volume is way too low on it. Almost blew my speakers when the next song played ;)

cheers for the feedback i have tried about 5 times replacing the track with louder versions it seems fine my end but people do say its still low i have just replaced it again so dont know if its any better your end....tony

Much better... i mean louder. ;)

Really liked that, definitely my kind of track. Love a bit of uplifting indie. The guitars are super tight. The solo is top too, made me think of Suede a bit. I like the structure of the track a lot and the chorus is distinct with a nice step up in pitch for the melody. Very good stuff.
-
Liked it a lot, good drive and good catchy chorus.
You should post the lyrics though, even if they're not the highlight, people round here like to read them...!
Poptastic.

Yep. The volume is sorted now :) Your vocals need to come up a bit especially in the verse imo. The majority of vocalists hate hearing their voice. It's so weird hearing yourself singing and personally I find it quite embarrassing at times. However you have got to use that unique instrument that you have and that's one of the big things that you have to make your songs unique. So embrace the fecker. Sing it loud, sing it quietly, just sing. 99.9 % of the population wouldn't have the balls to do it so good on you man, la :)

ah i found something i can provide some feedback on! cool tune. this is so reminiscent of 80s stuff like The Bolshoi! i dig it. please post the lyrics. i'm hearing challenged and i cannot make out most of the words... though i did pick up the nice hook line 'like our old love letter'.
-
I totally enjoyed listening to your song Tony. It does have that Indie vibe which is very cool. 8)
I always listen on headphones so the volume sounds good to me. Sorry I have nothing to add, but just wanted to say, aweome track! :)
-
Thnx guys

Great song! Really like the structure and the melody...and that kind of sparse guitar soloing in places is better than my mum's cup of tea. The guitars really provide a good driving rhythm to this and keep the whole thing anchored really well.
You've got pretty much a good performance through all of this...it's the first I've heard from you and I'm looking forward to more.
Thanks for the post!

@macker71165 (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=20758) - 1st listen - Engaging intro...nice gtr hooks, lovely bass right up the fretboard, very nice indeed, just great arrangement. Goodness the quality here is really cool. I think I'd add another track of BVox on the chorus, just to thicken out a bit.
Nice gtr on solo and subsequent Chorus, right my alley.
Superb work Macker
