Nice vocal Beags and the song works.
My only crit is the drums come over a bit 'squeezed'

I think the background vox could come up, but otherwise it sounded pretty good to me. Nice job.

I agree with Wayfarer the song is good but the mix needs beefing up along with backing vocal, lead vox is good otherwise. Everything is recorded Ok, so i just needs a bit of aftercare.

Sounds good here; vocal reminds me of Warren Zevon.
Well done.

Nice one Reece! It all sounds good to me! I agree with Thomas above, it does have a touch of that Warren Zevon sound - especially the vocal presentation.

Hey Daryk me mate! thanks a bunch for the compliment and the crit! I've adjusted the compression on the drums and uploaded a new version - please let me know what you think! Wayfarer

Hey Bill - thanks a lot! I appreciate it! bumped the BGVs on this version - please let me know if that works! SupaReels Music

All sounding pretty good except the drum kit is not what I would have used. Sounds too tiny (to me).
Personal taste and all.

Great work guys! Loved the words. Nice vocal delivery Reece. It's got a great sing-along quality to it. I can see the congregation at my church singing it during worship service!

I love this song really pushes a message home. The mix on the vocal is so much improved and brings the song to life, the one thing I noticed is the rhythm guitar, it sounds a little flat to me compared to the whole mix, I would add a tad more EQ and perhaps the ST2S-3 (stereo Imager) that comes with Plat ...just for the fairy dust, however this work is top notch with great vocals so I hope it does well !
Regards
Steve

Thanks so much Steve! I'll look at the rhythm - but which rhythm are you talking about? we have several in this song, actually, played by two guys - one on the right and one on the left - and sometimes they played different tones on verse than chorus or bridge. help me find the area you're talking about and we'll take a look at it! thanks again also on the vox comments!

Overall mix comes through clear and the vocals sit nicely on top. Not a fan of the drum kit either though - sounds a bit thin, sorta like a smiley face EQ thang. The song and performances are real solid though.

Hey Steve, thanks so much for the comments! I did change the drum kit in between initial posting and when you heard it, some have said the new kit sounds better but maybe I still don't have it right? appreciate the comments on the performances!
