Did this a few weeks ago actually.
The vocals are mixed too loud, but I didn't mix it so don't blame me

I just did the music, well apart from the guitar and some additional noises.

It's probably not gonna be changed so don't bother writing an essay about changes I should do to the mix.

Regardless, I thought somebody might enjoy it anyway.

See you again

If the lyrics don't seem to make 100% sense then that's because they've come from three different sources. Long story. Enjoy.

Glad to see you took my advice and skipped the essays

You're right: I enjoyed it (anyway).

No essays.
Cheers

That's very sweet ARmadillo. The vocals and the melody reminds of some early 90s brit-guitar pop groups but the whole song seems very fresh and of course could be better if mixed properly.

thanks guys. I'll take that as the slang "sweet" (kewl, wicked etc.) and not the "that's a very sweet son you got".

I love the melody on this! nicely done. I love a glitchy sound.

Pretty cool. There's a lot of good stuff in there. I think the main vocals are little too upfront and the note when the singer says "would" - as in "I would see you again," sounds slightly sour to my ears. But that could also be related to the volume. The mix is clean and bright, I just think you could emphasize the percussive stuff and the instrumentation in general a bit more.

So where do the words/vox come from?

words/vox. It's an english guy I did a collab with, done through a UK musicians forum I'm part of. He did the guitar and vocals. Basically we had a "collaboration competition" just for the fun of it and to get some music going. He (the vocalist) grapped the lyrics from 3 songs other participants had made and squeezed it into one. He obviously didn't use their melodies, just the lyrics. Quite a funny and clever idea.

Thanks for the critique. Totally agrea about vocals too loud, as I mentioned in my first post, but he seemed to think it was ok, so....

Oh yeah, I see that up there. Well, it just goes to show why singers shouldn't mix their own songs. (I speak from experience - even though I hardly consider myself a singer.)
