Awesome! Great production and song structure. Loved everything about it. Great lyrics too. Well done!!! (Loved the effects on the chorus, too. Very Beatles.) What were those effects???

What were those effects??? Hi, David. Glad to hear from you! There are three tracks of me on harmony on the chorus, hard panned left/right/center. There's a leap down from an F to a D on "better man", but the timing is a bit off between the takes, and I sort of slide into the cadence. Between that and a lack of pitch correction, I think that's the "effect" you're hearing.  I do have some effects on the harmony group, but nothing special. There's some generic background vocals EQ from Neutron Elements, and then the "Drum Room" reverb from EZMix because it seemed to sit in the mix the best. At the prechorus, there's a "Phone with Slap Delay" effect from EZMix where I widened the notch filter quite a bit, and panning the vocal. The word "wrong" is repeated by putting it on separate tracks with a "Phone with Reverb" from EZMix, hard panning it and lowering the volume to get an echo effect. But that's really quiet - I'm not even sure it's audible over the drums. Thanks for asking! Did I answer the question?

David,
Those drums really pulled me in to this very well written and produced song... the change from folky verse to the Beatlesque chorus gives the song an original twist.
Very catchy melody and super harmonies on the chorus.
Excellent work!
Robert

Hi dcuny:
I really liked this song. I think it was one of your better inspirations. One question: did you leave out the bass intentionally, or were you experimenting?
I kept waiting for it, either way it was a very nice tune!!!
All the best,
Dave

One question: did you leave out the bass intentionally, or were you experimenting? Hi, Dave. I'll take that as a subtle hint that the bass is too quiet in the mix. I'm hoping to do some minor tweaks this weekend, and I'll see if the bass needs some boosting. I typically put the bass nice and high, so this time I might have gone to far in the other direction. Thanks for the kind words and feedback!

Hello, David
Wonderful drum sound!
The melody is really pop.
Your vocals fit it very well.
The trumpet at the ending gives a nice spice to this tune.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
