    OK, I'm guessing that English is not your first language, so if you want to sing it in english then you should maybe find someone to help you with the lyric. This is not meant to sound negative, it's a nice song, but the words don't make sense in places. Hey....it's better than I could do in another language, so maybe I shouldn't say anything, but I figure that if you care about your music you'd want it to sound right.

    Anyway, welcome aboard.  I look forward to hearing some more of your work.

    hey welcome steve.
    the new breed of song, huh? well it was actually a pretty good effort, not revolutionary but nicely played 'adult pop-rock' (think it used to be called MOR) drums are well recorded, as is bass, but both are a little loud in relation to the rest of the instrumentation. in particular, the electric guitar gets lost somewhere in my left ear. whilst hard panning can work on a single guitar, it's more effective if double tracked or in the presence of another rhythm instrument (eg organ) in the right channel. the clean guitar works better.
    vocals are well sung, as paulo says, need to check out the English - you only get away with that sorta thing in Metalenglisch!
    given your equipment, and the length of time you've been doing this, you're doing really well, keep at it. it also doubles our Filipino contigent (Severed Vesper being the other gu!)y

    thank you guys!, for the advice. .
    I'm gonna tell my composer/singer to fix the lyrics :)

    I knew it, the song doesn't sound good!, for me , cause I made the music rush.

    the lead guitar not recorded well
    the voice are nearly live recorded
    the bass are only basic , just a root of a chords
    the rythm are not well constructed, no fixed strumming (guitar)
    only midi bass and drums [no mix]
    my pc is always crashing 
    and
    I dunno how to mix 


    But paulo said :
    "if you care about your music you'd want it to sound right".


    I need work on it more :)

    thankz again. .

    hehe. It actually does sound good, you just gotta pan that lead guit back towards the center... say 20% left instead of a 100% left. Vocals were just a tad buried for me but not to the point where I couldn't make them out, but I agree with the other reveiwer that rhythm and percussion could come down a couple Db to allow the vocals more prominence.

    I liked it but I have to agree the vocals was a bit hard to make out , you need to work on your vocals so listeners can hear the lyrics and your voice .

    Nice start , don't give in too soon . Radio
