Haven't posted a song in a while. This is an original I just finished. Any comments about the mix/master is appreciated.

Hey Charlie,

Don't think we've listened to you before. Nice to "meet" ya!

As far as your questions, we don't hear anything in the mic that needs to be changed. Everything is in perfect balance and in the right spot. The vocal harmony is great. And loved that ending - we didn't expect that! everything seems fine.

There's a lot of truth in your lyric. But, of course, at 25 years of age, "later" is so far away you don't ever expect it to catch up with you. And then it does! Real nice lyric - love the internal rhymes.

We enjoyed this a lot. Wishing you the best.

Alan & Di

Charlie, you preached some hardcore truth in this one! Your vocal performance in the chorus was great! Loved that ending also! Thanks, Torrey.

Fun track. The vocals are either too far forward or there's a mismatch between them and the reverb/room of the rest.


Cheers

Brilliant stuff Charlie, good video too, big fan of your Youtube channel, have to say the "Money" song of yours is my favourite lots of fun but has a real message as well.

Great job.
