song title: It's never goodbye.
Background information:My uncle passed a year ago and my cousin asked me to write her a song as she was struggling about what to say as she was writing about her loss. this is the outcome as i looked back at the loss of my parents.
All of the tracks were generated By Band in a Box.
The track vocal and mastering were done in logic.

That's pretty cool.
I'd suggest retracking the 1st line as it's tone is harsher than the rest.


Cheers

This is one hell of a great song, especially considering it is your first post.

I liked everything about it, great vocal, backing tracks, and mix but the lyrics took it over the top for me.

Outstanding tribute to your uncle and I'm sure your cousin loved it.

Two thumbs up


OK, a random thought;
Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Welcome to the forum, and thanks for allowing us to listen. I agree with Torrey. It's a good feeling when something you put together can be used to minister, especially to those who are hurting - and this does the trick well. Congratulations.
