This is a song  I wrote for many years ago. I believe It deserves a chance so I recorded it a year ago, but haven't made a mix until now. I'm not totally happy with the mix, but I thought it would be fun to have some feedback from other people before I spend more time tweaking it.

This song really pops from my speakers which makes for a very pleasant listen.  Every element is easily heard and well panned.  The vocals shine and make for a very good pop song.  It sounds like you put a lot of work into this, and I give you a  well deserved thumbs up!

Yes, It Pops! 
 
It makes me want to pop up the volume. ...Guess this is good and bad.
 
Since English is not my native language I don't understand it that much on the first run. But I guess, this is good since its add mystery to the song. 
 
I don't know that much about production, yet. But guess I know what I like.
 
Good Song. 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Excellent melody, and really excellent harmonies! Memorable treatment of these. Your singing definitely puts me in the mood of some pretty classic '60's pop, which I quite like.
 
For me, the background electric guitar got a little samey throughout the piece - you might drop it out more.
 
And the snare sounds like you have really spent time on the reverb, but it kind of gave me a "recorded in a stairwell" feeling, which I could see fitting the mood/era of the piece (1960's) - my ears in 2015 wanted the snare to be drier. 
 
very nice work, I can totally relate to "I wrote this years ago, just getting around to recording it"  !!!
 
cheers.

@Lynn: thank you very much!!

@PiBoy: glad you liked it. English isn't my native language either (I'm from Norway), so i really don't know what I'm singing about :-D

@emeraldsoul: I agree about the guitars. I might do something with them. And the snare is also a little "too much".

I really like your kind words about my vocals, because I don't consider myself as a vocalist. But I sing a lot in the shower....

I get the 60s vibe too.  The snare snaps just fine for me.  Your vocals are really good and I like the song.  Singing in the shower?  That's some good reverb.   I'm not sure how I feel about the 60s vibe cause that is less than commercial today.  BUT... really who cares?  A good song recorded in any era(or sounds like an era) is a good song.

The 60's vibe was not a goal, but I like classic popsongs with harmony vocals, so it may come natural for me. The commercial thing is not something I care about. I like all kind of music. My next song may be a Kraftwerk inspired song or a Deep Purple rip off (but I don't want to try to sound like Ian Gillan, coz that is impossible :-D)
As you say, a good song is a good song, and I'm glad you like it.

Thanks

very cool production of a good song Roger - nice one

I really like this! Is it you on vocals? A+ mix, thick, rich harmonies—very well produced. Catchy melody too. I agree it has a retro vibe, but not in a negative way. There's a reason a lot of music from back in the day is called "classic rock". When I have more time I'd like to go through some of your other stuff.

This number does have a '60's feel to it and I dig it!  The harmonies are great and the melody really draws one into the song.
Very nice work!!!
