Thanks! Yea the double tracked vocals throughout just kind of go with that sound from the early 2000s which is why I left it all the way through. If I wasn't going for such a specific thing I probably would have done what you said :-)

Pretty cool tune.... That lead guitar rips right through the mix.  Not sure if that's a bad thing or not ... (It works). I think the double tracking of the vocals does get that sound you were shooting for but perhaps using it a bit more judiciously would have resulted in a much better result? The guitar tone is unique though and kind of puts your signature on the song.

So you made the lyrics too. I just realized. Great job! I have done lyrics twice and both time they were wierd.

Haha yea lyrics too. I used to do a lot of comedy-rap stuff (still do, but I just don't talk about it much as not to take away from my "serious" music haha), so writing lyrics is something i've done for a while. Still not my main focus though.

Ok, so you are a man of many talents.

I really hate the old whiny pop rock of that era, I think you have nailed it in terms of what you were after. Good work, just not my kinda thing.

Haha, perfect :-)
 
And I wouldn't say I hated it, it did its job... which was background music for being drunk at parties trying to meet girls... But I don't think I'll be making a playlist of New Found Glory and Good Charlotte songs anytime soon haha.

Nice one, David.  I didn't see that one coming.  You did a good job of capturing a vibe that's actually been around longer than most people know.  I hope I get a chance to see the movie.  Have a good year!

Thanks Lynn! :-)

Short and sweet. This is nice. Well done!
