Janne,
Beautiful composition.
Voices are top notch.
We understand what you mean by the Chinese colour of the accent, we noticed it too.
Lovely video too!
Rob and Anne-Marie Thanks Rob and Anne-Marie for your kind comment  Janne

Really cool video Janne. Excellent HD shots. Beautiful countryside. Loved the song. Vocal and lyric were excellent as well.

I can only agree with all others here. You earned two, no three, no four huge compliments on the song;
1. A very nice melody/ composition
2. Very beautiful lyrics
3. So nice vocals used here. You can't hear AI shortcomings. You have made wonderful progress on that!
4. Winning that contest, but of course you had to win that.
Oh, and almost forgot nr. 5; the very nice, entertaining video you made!
Enjoyed the song a lot. One day I might use AI / Synthesizer as well,
Hans
Thanks Hans for your huge compliments  It's a great honor that you found so many kind things to say about my song. I'm really glad you liked the vocals, I hope to hear your work on Synth vocals one day, but do not replace your gorgeous voice, just add some nice lady backing or do something inventive with them Janne

Very lovely celtic music, Janne; interesting lyric details, a vocal right in the tradition and perfect instrumental choices.
You are doing amazing work with the synth voices; the result here is more than human!
Well done on your contest win.
Robert Thanks Robert for your kind comment I'm glad you found the vocal working in the Celtic tradition, it is amazing how she can sound so authentic (even being originally a Chinese singer), Weina also sounds bit like a Finnish singer of a band called Auri. I agree that the result is more than human, that's how I think also, but it is not my merit, the synth voices just don't require much work anymore to sound excellent. Janne

Nice song! Weina has a lovely voice, and her personality shines through here. As a native speaker (and user of the software) I'd prefer the accent be gone, but it does no damage to the song. I also thought that the first verse felt like it was pitched high for her, but I suspect part of that is that I'm just not that used to hearing someone sing that high. Another factor is when SynthesizerV "humanizes" pitches, it pulls the vocal slightly out of tune. It's a delicate balance - too perfect is robotic, while too imperfect sounds off because we're so used to hearing everything auto-tuned to perfection. Adding Natalie helps balance out Weina's high pitch. Sounds good!

Janne,
It's a beautiful song with a Celtic feel. The video also fits the mood of the song perfectly.
I was impressed with how skillfully you used the vocal synthesizers.
No wonder you won the song contest. Congratulations!
Enjoyed my listen and watch a lot.
Best regards.

Congrats on the win.
An interesting, colorful write.
Excellent use of BIAB. You always show new possibilities with the software.
Great job with the synth vocals. Truly Amazing. You do that as well as any I've heard.
A very solid mix.
Well done.

Thanks David for your kind and professional comment Because I'm non-native speaker, the accent is more natural to me and besides I like exotic voices and make exotic music  The Eastern music seems to have tendency for women to sing quite high, maybe that's why there are so many high-pitched voice banks... and maybe the use of autotuning as an effect get Western people more used to unnatural sounding vocals.

Thanks Brad, I really appreciate your kind words Glad to hear you liked the harmonies, that's something that I usually do manually, although I know I could also use BIAB to generate them. Janne

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
