I added a new link with a new mix took out the 12 string could not fix the mix with it hope this is better
Hi everyone got through another song. all the music is using band in a box 2019 using the slow classic rock w/held guitar 12 string. pulled down the instrument tracks into Audacity and played with them there to pull them out for parts of the verse and bring them into the chorus. My vocals I recorded on my Roland BR-1180. so I used 3 recording devices/programs but they worked for me and I like the result. Hope you all do too thanks love this forum
hope you all have a great day all the way from Airdrie, Alberta Canada



song
I'LL WATCH YOU BREATHE

WHEN SLEEP IS NOT MY FRIEND
AND MY THOUGHTS CAN FIND NO END
I SEE YOUR SILHOUETTE LAYING HERE BESIDE ME
THE PEACE ON YOUR FACE CALMS THE FEARS IN MY BRAIN
AND I KNOW I'LL MAKE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT AGAIN
SO IM GOING TO SIR RIGHT HERE
AND WATCH YOU BREATHE

CHORUS:
I'WATCH YOU BREATHE AND THE FIGTH INSIDE STARTS TO DISSAPEAR
I WATCH YOU BREATHE AND A CALM OVERTAKES MY FEAR
SO I WILL SIT HER IN THE DARK
WITH YOUR LOVE IN MY HEART
SILENT BUT NO LONGER AFRAID
AND I'LL WATCH YOU BREATHE


WHEN THE WORLD COMES CRASHING IN
AND THE WAVES OF TROUBLE IN MY MIND MAKE THE LIGHT GO DIM
ALL I HAVE TO DO IS WATCH YOU BREATHE
WITH YOU LYING NEXT TO ME
YOUR LOVE WILL ALWAYS BRINGS ME PEACE
NO MATTER HOW DARK THE NIGHT MAY SEEM
SO I'LL WATCH YOU BREATHE

That 12 string doesn't sound quite right - just a little behind the beat.
Everything else is fine.
The vocal is a little loud and the reverb/room sound is different to the band but that's a common enough problem in BIAB.
The vocal is terrific.


Cheers

Lovely vocals. Very rich. Nice lyrics. The band sounds good but as rayc said, the 12 string seems a bit off beat. It's probably an easy fix.

Hi David.
My opinion is only my own preference and I am not saying how the song should be , and I am wrong more often than not.
I think the arrangement needs more light and shade to accentuate the chorus . The guitar sounds good in the chorus but is jarring in the first verse . Also only use the organ in the chorus and add a few more instruments in the chorus (strings maybe) to beef it up. Also some harmonies on "AND I'LL WATCH YOU BREATHE" would really emphasize what the song is about.
It is a really good song and of course , you have a gift with your voice.

Cool song!! Very soulful vocal......I would make it a little wet though. Sounds like a Zane guitar? Very well done!! Take care. Greg
