https://soundcloud.com/user-679049224/whatever-happened-to-my-dreamsThis is my first post, so I'm not sure what all I need to say. I am using BIAB Audiophile for Mac 2015. The only thing I added are the vocals.
Guitars and dogs are a lot alike. You can't have too many of them.

Hi Jamie,
Welcome to the forum.
I love the poignancy and the emotional intensity that you captured in both your lyrics and your presentation. I found the whole journey beautiful.
The lines...
"Life takes you down roads you thought you'd never see
"Paths that twist and turn into reality
"Leading through green fields into the blackest sea"
...resonated very strongly with me.
A terrific first effort!
All the best with song #2!
Noel

Hi Jamie,
I second Noel`s comments on the poignant feel of your song - its lovely.I was reminded of Susan Boyle so I think your vocals hit the mark!
I noticed that your arrangement (the string section fits very well) remained consistent throughout; I thought some build to the first chorus could have worked.
Very good - I look forward to more,
Robert

Welcome to the forum.
Very nice vocals. Beatiful duet.
As Noel said, I also love the poignancy and the emotional intensity that you captured in both your lyrics and your presentation.
I am looking forward to your next song.

Beautifully presented Jamie.
Thoughtful lyrics combined with a pleasant melody. And the strings complemented perfectly.

Hi Jamie and yes, welcome to the forum.
An excellent first post.
A haunting backing with a beautifully performed vocal. I particularly liked the way the harmony came in.
I look forward to seeing what you do next.

Welcome. Nice vocals and the mix supports everything very well.
"Life takes you down roads you thought you'd never see
Paths that twist and turn into reality
Leading through green fields into the blackest sea
Whatever happened to my dreams"
Very nice.
We enjoyed the listen and hope to hear more!
J&B
PS: It's typical to list the tracks used in the production -- particularly the RT's and RD's.

Great lyrics, and your vocal sounds very nice indeed, especially when the harmony part comes in.
Good work on the track also, perfect to these ears. Very much enjoyed!

Wonderful emotion in your voice, well crafted lyrics and your arrangement of the RT's is spot on for your song. Pretty harmonies too.

Style is MOVIEST.STY
Real Tracks are:
2045:Piano, Acoustic, Solo-Accompaniment
2335:String Quartet, Rhythm
I also had a soloist track but I can't find it... it disappeared. That should tell you right there how much I know about this!
I'm dragging the tracks into Logic Pro 9 and I'm using a MOTU 828mkll, KRK Rokit5 monitors and a Rode NTK for vocals.
Thanks for all the kind words of encouragement.

WOW this is one outstanding first post! The backing tracks, vocals and harmonies were top shelf all the way but the lyrics took it over the top for me! I'm an old guy and you got me wondering whatever happened to my dreams!
This is a keeper.
PS - My daughter walked into the room and said "that is really good. Whoever that is she can really sing. What CD are you listening to." I think that says it all!
My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

The melody is smooth but has emotional impact.
How 'bout that for saying that I like it? Good harmonies!
Very nice song.
