That's what she said

I loved the simplicity of this song it really works. One of those songs that needs real drums, be worth looking into that. Bit more passion from the vocal delivery, tell me what the words mean! the tone of the vocal is really nice. This song is authentic because of the use of a "regular expression".

I would not be worried about using touch of Melodyne to bring the vocals closer when you do let your emotion in.  It is not as if you do not check the tuning on your guitar now is it?

Will keep the furry ears open for the remix.

Steen, I want to start by saying that I like this song, and I much prefer the newer version.  It was well worth your time to redo this, and now your voice has some flavor that works for you.   As Cian said, the drums might be worth your time to give this production a bit more depth.  Otherwise, good job.

If you replace the drums, or even throw in a fill once in a while, it'd be a major step up. It's a pleasant tune, certainly!
I like the spacey synth pad, and to go along with, maybe your drums could be electronic or such. Go 80's!

Thanks for the comments. I'm working a bit more on the drums. It's just never been my strong point.

Your link on top of the page takes you to a song called Nomansland.

Now that I found this link, I'm listening to this also.

I like this song quite a bit.  The lyrics are "real" and are really well done.  I like the vocals quite a bit.  They remind me of some 80s post punk groups like The Alarm.  I love the simplicity of the instrumentation, including the drums.  To me, to have anything more going on would detract from the song itself.  

My only crit (and I know you said it's the final mix and it's not going to get any better), you can hear extra vocal noises like lip smacks and breaths between some of the lines and especially at the beginning before the vocals start.  If it's not too late, I'd go in and try to edit those out.  

Honestly, that's my only crit.  As for the song writing and instrumentation, I absolutely am in love with this song.  It's like my life before I got married.  I can definitely relate to the lyrics.

Thanks for your input Gregg. I appreciate it.
Link has been changed. I didn't notice the noises. I moved away from headphones for mixing, which I probably why I didn't notice.
Simplicity seems to be the thing theses day if you listen to the popular songs on the radio. Far from Spector.

Hi Steen,
 
I am currently listening to the final mix.
 
On the whole, I think you should be proud of what you have done here. You say, "it's not going to get any better," but I disagree a little... Okay, leave this one where it is, and then apply what you have learned on your next project.
 
To be honest, I think you have a fine song at the end there. You have a good voice too...
 
cheers

Thank a lot Andy. I really appreciate it.
