Well done Olivier!  I really liked your guitar tone.

Very nice.  I can understand every word.  The song and the recording are both well done.

Nice song Olivier! I will say that the brush on the snare is a little too up front for my tastes. Guitar work is very tastefully done. You did a good job singing in a non-native language.

Dan

Please feel free to post the French version if you have it!
 
Nice job of translation. I'd agree the brush snare needs to be a little lower, and it sounds like you have compressed it maybe? I dunno, perhaps try it with the compressor off. It would breathe more.
 
Vocal is nice, just simply seems to fit.

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your comments

Thank you David.One of the best product I got is a load box which allows me to track the guitar directly from the amp ,then add a speaker impulse and almost nothing else.

John,thanks ,I've heard that once you are more than one year old they are certain consonances you cannot hear and identify anymore so I'm glad you could understand despite the prononciation .

Hi Dan thanks,I agree thoose brushes are quite unreal much too loud got to go back to it.

Thank you Tom. It is not actually a translation ,I wrote it directly in english but with my french songwriting processes.
Well you must have been directly in my computer because yes ,I compressed the snare buss and I will look forward following your tip.

All the best.
Olivier

hi,
I changed the mix,disabled the compressor on the brushes and cleaned a little bit the low frequencies on the voice.

beautiful.  You sound like Ringo Starr trying to fake a french accent when you sing in english!  Bet you didn't know that....

Hi David,
Thank you for listening.
I must admit that I absolutely didn't know I was Ringo Starr's reference when it came to sing in english with a french accent😇.
Cheers,
Olivier.

hi,
changed some things in the mix...
Brought back brushes after the bridge,seems to come a little bit more coherent,however I can hear voice is not good.
It might be a matter of language ,or tone a little high for my center or a lack of commitment in the singing.Anyway it does not sound so,I will have to go back to it ,maybe translate it and go to it in my native language,or retrack it with a better level of concentration.Another option is that if one of you is interested to sing it I can transmit the playback.
One of the pleasure with singing in a foreign language is that you dare to tell things you would not if ou were really aware of what you are saying but maybe here,I went too....far.
Cheers.
Olivier
