[hit single] "betty-jane"

[enroe]

I don't see this as a autumn hit... more like spring hit in 2023
is this some autotune on your voice?
cool you made the picture be yourself

Ahh, I see you're more future oriented: Spring hit of 2023.
No, there is no autotune or anything like that on the vocals.
However, we shortened or lengthened some syllables during
fine adjustments. It may be that the sensitive ear hears
something like that.

cool you made the picture be yourself

Thanks - also for that. I drew the image with Inkscape. Of
course, the idea and the feeling for proportions are important.
We believe that some kind of visual representation can move
a song forward a lot better. Maybe.

Great chorus. Love the tune. Good vocalist.

Thank you, vstdls!

The chorus is one of your best with great use of backing vocals. The guitar solo at 0:58 is terrific. A KVR hit single for sure.

I think a lot of us make choices similar to Betty Jane.

Nice work as usual.

Frantz, thank you for your confirmation and encouragement!

enroe,
Thank you for the reviews! Now your song: there are some very noticeable pitch tweaks on the vocals, but the song wouldn't be quite the same without the vocals because they sound quite good overall and have nice tone and melodies. Instrumentally, everything sounds nice. Audio quality is very good. Nice song and recording!

Thanks Aaron! I really appreciate your expert opinion.

Cool track. Joe Strummer vibes.

Thank you, eassea!

The first time I listened to this, I liked the second verse more than the first. I think the first verse has a much more "low-key" style and sound. By the time the second verse comes along, we've had the first chorus and solo and energy levels are higher. I think this makes the second verse more "comfortable". After subsequent listens, I'm more in tune with the relaxed vibe of the first verse. Having listened to lots of Prog-Rock in my youth, I'm quite at home listening to songwriting whose features may be a little off the beaten track.

Good work

Sorry for only getting around to reading this thread now.
But here we go:

You really listened to the song at length several times.
We appreciate that.

The first verse is accompanied and supplemented by the electric
organ, the second mainly by the electric guitar. Finally, the third
verse is the most relaxed, it is accompanied only by two clean
guitars - maybe that could be your favorite too?

Oh - and fourth there is the break "Ohh Betty-Jane it seems
the cooler you are the deeper you fall" - this break is also
accompanied by two clean guitars.

In any case - seismit1 - it is always a matter of weighing and
balancing how the tension should develop over the various
verses - and how it works. Thank you very much!
