Love it!  I've always been a sucker for this type of music, though I don't know what to call it.
What is that affect on the voice? Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Optimus!
 
I used Waves doubler on the verses, also their pitch correction and H-Delay. The last verse is just a filter from Wave Arts Track Plug (Telephone.)
 
Don't know what to call it either: Adult Contemporary?

Kiki, this is a very pleasant song to listen to.  At several points in the tune, it goes in a direction that enhances the arrangement quite nicely.  You have a good voice, and your recorded it very well.  I look forward to hearing more of your tunes.

Thank you Lynn!
 
It is so hard singing... hate to say it but "thank God" for pitch correction, and Waves.
 
Even WITH the pitch correction, I took EASILY 20 passes to get it right. It took so long to record the vocals I had to write down all the settings and come back days later to try it again.
 
I WILL post more for sure.
 
Thank you again Lynn!

Loved it Kiki.
I love pop so interested to have a listen.
 
Catchy, simple and a well established laid back groove.
 
The vocal treatment works very well. There are always something evolving in the song to keep interest, love when the strings come in. 
 
"The indian doctor" lol!!!

Nice tune and production kiki.
I do think the pitch correction needs a little tweaking though. I like the idea of it and I don't know waves pitch but, I think you need to smooth out some of the warbling and pitch bends so they are more naturally un-natural..
Nice stuff.

Pleasant easy-going tune Kiki, reminds me of something from the '70's..Seals & Crofts or Clifford T Ward. The vocal treatment puts in a more contemporary 'Owl City' mood though. I hate that effect but it seems to work in this song. Nice chords in the break/middle 8.
