Hi All,
 
I reworked an old song I had cowritten with a mate years ago, since Im putting together a collection of songs at the moment
 
It was originally acoustic but decided to go more RnB with this version.
 
Again can you point to any weak spots, changes, suggestions, etc

Thanks,

Very pro track here Cian. Mix is very clean with some tasty little elements gliding in and out. The only nit I can think of is on your very first transition into the falsetto. I was thinking when I first heard it, that perhaps the other transitions might be same so as to add a little character or intimacy. Nope....just that one. The rest are nicely done. Very minor nit on an otherwise very well done track.

I like it a lot. I think overall the vocals need to come up as well as the percussion. Maybe the snare is too hot. 
I just have to reach for the vocals (bkg included) a bit.

Really good.....and superb singing !!
 
Cheers,
Kane

Thanks Randy,Rimshot, Kane. 
The vocals are probably getting buried because of the other instruments taking up too much room.
Ive made a few tweak above from above anyway.
 
Any elements distract you is this too overproduced?

Good song but a little bit to much of instruments - less is more I think...

You have a very nice, evocative voice! And you did an excellent job of putting it in the mix just right. I doubt Abbey Road Studios could've done it any better.
Cheers!

Cian,
 
I really like this track. Its a pop ballad/torch number, with a piano in the center and a very expressive & distinctive vocal. The backing vocals are very good. It may be just me (I'm from the deep south/US), but I am having trouble understanding the lyrics. Also the bass snare drum part is metronomic/ repetitive to me. But I have heard more than a few hit records with similar drum parts, so that may not be a problem for this type of track at all.
 
All in all, good stuff.
 
Cheers,

Really nice piece, great melody and I'm a sucker for great bg vocals. Love your voice! I can't think of a thing I'd change. Love how the piano wanders about. Just wow, great song!

Great stuff Cian - backing vocals with all the ad-libs are excellent
