With every mix that you put up on here you improved upon the previous one. So you've done really well.

Good song Sean.  I remember the earlier version and this one is greatly improved.  Nice harmonies.  Like how the full band kicks in later.

Well done in humble opinion. Sounds very good on my system. Awesome guitars! Great vocals and mix!

The initial start to this song is really harsh with the over use of effects on the guitar. Once it backs off a bit, it's no so hideous and the song sounds a whole lot better. The vocals weren't bad. I lost interest in the tune rather quickly though because it doesn't go anywhere.

Gusrogers - Thanks for the encouraging words. I do think that the song improved with each version. A lot of people here on the forum were a big help in that regard. I learned a lot in the process. Most importantly, I learned a lot of what not to do. I think that Herb brought experience that I didn't have and made it even better. 
 
Mike - Thanks for the comments. I went from a rocked out version (someone compared it to Guns n Roses) to a much more subtle acoustic version. I just couldn't get certain things to sound right (i.e. the acoustic guitar and the drums). I told Herb I wanted it to sound like a rock song and this is the result. He used Band in a Box for the drum parts. Now I'm seriously considering investing in that in the future, since I'm not a drummer. 
 
bayoubill - Thanks for taking the time to listen and give feedback.

pistolpete -The sound of the guitars in the beginning is my fault. It's part of the "old" mix. IIRC the only effects on the guitar are EQ. It really did sound harsh, and I think I EQ'd it to death trying to fix it. A victim of the law of diminishing returns. It started, I think, with a faulty recording technique. I turned the treble up on the mixer, trying to make the guitar sound brighter. Then I tried to remove the brightness with the EQ. As for the tune not going anywhere, well, I take responsibility for that as well. I'm sure that a lot of people agree, since it hasn't received many plays on soundcloud...I think half of the listens were mine, and I'm getting bored of it too =).
